Suggestions for a route daemon?

[Shaul Karl <shaulk@actcom.net.il>]

  Any suggestions for a route daemon? It will be used in a simple
network with minimal routing options. However I do want to learn about
the problem and the available solutions by implementing it, which is why 
I might consider a heavy tool which is not needed for this case.
  A short search I made showed the following 2 debs:
    1. mrt.
    2. bird.
