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

188 IPv6 Rapid Deployment (6rd; draft-ietf-softwire-ipv6-6rd) builds upon
189 mechanisms of 6to4 (RFC3056) to enable a service provider to rapidly
190 deploy IPv6 unicast service to IPv4 sites to which it provides
191 customer premise equipment. Like 6to4, it utilizes stateless IPv6 in
192 IPv4 encapsulation in order to transit IPv4-only network
193 infrastructure. Unlike 6to4, a 6rd service provider uses an IPv6
194 prefix of its own in place of the fixed 6to4 prefix.

219 Tunneling means encapsulating data of one protocol type within
220 another protocol and sending it over a channel that understands the
221 encapsulating protocol. This particular tunneling driver implements
222 GRE (Generic Routing Encapsulation) and at this time allows
223 encapsulating of IPv4 or IPv6 over existing IPv6 infrastructure.
224 This driver is useful if the other endpoint is a Cisco router: Cisco
225 likes GRE much better than the other Linux tunneling driver ("IP
226 tunneling" above). In addition, GRE allows multicast redistribution
