The OP (to which I was responding) didn't say anything about such a
configuration. I'm not suggesting that authpf solves all the world's
problems. Would one gateway protect disjoint networks? No. But on the
other hand, multihomed networks are just fine.
Having lots of tools in your toolbox lets you pick the best one for
the job. If it's not the right tool, don't use it. But that doesn't
reflect on the tool, just on it's applicability to the task at hand.
