## Caveats
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Things I plan to fix Real Soon Now:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
* It currently listens to all AppleTalk and AARP traffic on the EtherTalk port.
|
||||||
|
This might not play well with other AppleTalk software, e.g. netatalk.
|
||||||
|
* Also it currently uses the default Ethernet address for the interface for
|
||||||
|
sending packets. I plan to add the ability to configure a different address.
|
||||||
|
* It doesn't do any of the required packet splitting to keep packets under the
|
||||||
|
AppleTalk size limits. In particular ZIP GetZoneList Replies are incorrect
|
||||||
|
when the zone list would exceed the limit.
|
||||||
|
* It logs a lot and has no other monitoring or observability capability. I plan
|
||||||
|
to add a Prometheus metrics endpoint and at least add log levels / verbosity
|
||||||
|
flag.
|
||||||
|
* The AURP implementation is strictly incomplete, and lost connections with
|
||||||
|
configured peers aren't re-established after some backoff. This won't be too
|
||||||
|
difficult.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Things I plan to fix At Some Point:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
* For expediency I made it act as a _seed router_. At some point I might add
|
||||||
|
"soft seed" functionality.
