question on click

[Baris Inan]

Hi Ed,
I installed the router configuration file with no errors. Now, I'll
make some tests to see if my C code and router configuration works. By the
way the new element modifies the header that we insert between the network
and transport layers. So, right now it has no practical use.
Thanks for the help and keep up the good work.
