114 ---help---
115 Support for IPv6 Identifier Locator Addressing (ILA).
116
117 ILA is a mechanism to do network virtualization without
118 encapsulation. The basic concept of ILA is that we split an
119 IPv6 address into a 64 bit locator and 64 bit identifier. The
120 identifier is the identity of an entity in communication
121 ("who") and the locator expresses the location of the
122 entity ("where").
123
124 ILA can be configured using the "encap ila" option with
125 "ip -6 route" command. ILA is described in
126 https://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-herbert-nvo3-ila-00.

178 Tunneling means encapsulating data of one protocol type within
179 another protocol and sending it over a channel that understands the
180 encapsulating protocol. This can be used with xfrm mode tunnel to give
181 the notion of a secure tunnel for IPSEC and then use routing protocol

191 Tunneling means encapsulating data of one protocol type within
192 another protocol and sending it over a channel that understands the
193 encapsulating protocol. This driver implements encapsulation of IPv6
194 into IPv4 packets. This is useful if you want to connect two IPv6
195 networks over an IPv4-only path.

199 config IPV6_SIT_6RD

201 depends on IPV6_SIT
202 default n
203 ---help---
204 IPv6 Rapid Deployment (6rd; draft-ietf-softwire-ipv6-6rd) builds upon
205 mechanisms of 6to4 (RFC3056) to enable a service provider to rapidly
206 deploy IPv6 unicast service to IPv4 sites to which it provides
207 customer premise equipment. Like 6to4, it utilizes stateless IPv6 in
208 IPv4 encapsulation in order to transit IPv4-only network
209 infrastructure. Unlike 6to4, a 6rd service provider uses an IPv6
210 prefix of its own in place of the fixed 6to4 prefix.
211
212 With this option enabled, the SIT driver offers 6rd functionality by
213 providing additional ioctl API to configure the IPv6 Prefix for in
214 stead of static 2002::/16 for 6to4.

237 ---help---
238 Tunneling means encapsulating data of one protocol type within
239 another protocol and sending it over a channel that understands the
240 encapsulating protocol. This particular tunneling driver implements
241 GRE (Generic Routing Encapsulation) and at this time allows
242 encapsulating of IPv4 or IPv6 over existing IPv6 infrastructure.
243 This driver is useful if the other endpoint is a Cisco router: Cisco
244 likes GRE much better than the other Linux tunneling driver ("IP
245 tunneling" above). In addition, GRE allows multicast redistribution
246 through the tunnel.

271 The destination address is still the primary routing key, so mixing
272 normal and source prefix specific routes in the same routing table
273 may sometimes lead to unintended routing behavior. This can be
274 avoided by defining different routing tables for the normal and
275 source prefix specific routes.
