101 Support for IPv6 Identifier Locator Addressing (ILA).
102
103 ILA is a mechanism to do network virtualization without
104 encapsulation. The basic concept of ILA is that we split an
105 IPv6 address into a 64 bit locator and 64 bit identifier. The
106 identifier is the identity of an entity in communication
107 ("who") and the locator expresses the location of the
108 entity ("where").
109
110 ILA can be configured using the "encap ila" option with
111 "ip -6 route" command. ILA is described in
112 https://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-herbert-nvo3-ila-00.

191 mechanisms of 6to4 (RFC3056) to enable a service provider to rapidly

193 customer premise equipment. Like 6to4, it utilizes stateless IPv6 in
194 IPv4 encapsulation in order to transit IPv4-only network
195 infrastructure. Unlike 6to4, a 6rd service provider uses an IPv6
196 prefix of its own in place of the fixed 6to4 prefix.
