Re: GRE tunnel setup problem?

I've just created the gif and bridge between 3 end-points and the
multicast/broadcast is running perfectly. The OSPF routers converged
correctly.
I'll be trying now the mrouted as is much more powerfull and I can
control the bandwidth that the multicasts/broadcasts are using.
Do you know if I can control the multicast/broadcast bandwidth using
ALTQ of the OpenBSD?

Thank you,
Alex
