Linux TUN/TAP

michellc

　　Description
　　TUN/TAP provides packet reception and transmission for user space programs.
　　It can be seen as a simple Point-to-Point or Ethernet device, which,
　　instead of receiving packets from physical media, receives them from
　　user space program and instead of sending packets via physical media
　　writes them to the user space program.
