+GNU Zebra is a free software (distributed under GNU Generic Public
+License) which manages TCP/IP based routing protocols.
+
+It supports BGP-4 protocol as described in RFC1771 (A Border Gateway
+Protocol 4) and RIPv1, RIPv2 and OSPFv2.
+
+Zebra uses multithread technology under multithread supported UNIX
+kernels. However it can be run under not-multithread supported
+UNIX kernels.
+
+Zebra is intended to be used as a Route Server and a Route Reflector.
+Zebra is not a toolkit, it provides full routing power under a new
+architecture.
+
+If you want to build with IPv6 support, install with:
+ # make USE_INET6=YES install
