Hi, 
I am new to the net management world. I have a few questions 
about Network Management for routers.

1.  Why is the 68000 microprocessor the preferred choice
    for routers?
2.  What are the advantages of using 68000 for snmp agent 
    for routers?
3.  Are there public domain sources for:
     -- UDP/IP stack
     -- SNMP agents for routers and HUBs

All the info. I can get would be greatly appreciated.

Thanx
Sanchaita
