Description : Universal TUN/TAP device driver for 2.2.x Kernels
A TUN/TAP device provides packet reception and transmission
for user space programs. It can be viewed as a simple Point-to-Point
or Ethernet device which instead of receiving/sending packets from/to
physical media receives/sends them from/to an user space program.
.
TUN provides a Virtual Point-to-Point network device, TAP a
Virtual Ethernet network device.
.
The TUN/TAP device driver is needed for tunneling with VTun.
.
The stock 2.4.x kernel series already include support for TUN/TAP
devices, this package provides the same functionality for 2.2.x kernels.
