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

203 | IPv6 Rapid Deployment (6rd; draft-ietf-softwire-ipv6-6rd) builds upon | |
204 | mechanisms of 6to4 (RFC3056) to enable a service provider to rapidly | |
205 | deploy IPv6 unicast service to IPv4 sites to which it provides | |
206 | customer premise equipment. Like 6to4, it utilizes stateless IPv6 in | |
207 | IPv4 encapsulation in order to transit IPv4-only network | |
208 | infrastructure. Unlike 6to4, a 6rd service provider uses an IPv6 | |
209 | prefix of its own in place of the fixed 6to4 prefix. | |
210 | ||
211 | With this option enabled, the SIT driver offers 6rd functionality by | |
