    ipv6 sit: 6rd (IPv6 Rapid Deployment) Support. · fa857afc
    YOSHIFUJI Hideaki / 吉藤英明 提交于
    IPv6 Rapid Deployment (6rd; draft-ietf-softwire-ipv6-6rd) builds upon
    mechanisms of 6to4 (RFC3056) to enable a service provider to rapidly
    deploy IPv6 unicast service to IPv4 sites to which it provides
    customer premise equipment.  Like 6to4, it utilizes stateless IPv6 in
    IPv4 encapsulation in order to transit IPv4-only network
    infrastructure.  Unlike 6to4, a 6rd service provider uses an IPv6
    prefix of its own in place of the fixed 6to4 prefix.
    
    With this option enabled, the SIT driver offers 6rd functionality by
    providing additional ioctl API to configure the IPv6 Prefix for in
    stead of static 2002::/16 for 6to4.
    
    Original patch was done by Alexandre Cassen <acassen@freebox.fr>
    based on old Internet-Draft.
