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.

202 ---help---
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
212 providing additional ioctl API to configure the IPv6 Prefix for in
213 stead of static 2002::/16 for 6to4.

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