+Introduction
+============
+
+ This is a port of brouted. brouted is dynamic routing daemon
+ acting on source IP address of TCP connections. It's purpose
+ is to use multiple routing only TCP/IP leased line only with
+ a single host.
+
+
+How it works
+============
+
+ It checks PCB(Protocol Control Block) and kernel routing ta-
+ ble. If dedicated source IP appears in PCB, brouted checks
+ whether it's destination IP address exists in kernel routing
+ table. If it doesn't exists, brouted add new routing entry
+ which routes destination IP to dedicated gateway.
+
+ In similar manner, when the TCP connection drops, correspond-
+ ing routing entry is removed from kernel routing table.
