170 IPv6 Rapid Deployment (6rd; draft-ietf-softwire-ipv6-6rd) builds upon
171 mechanisms of 6to4 (RFC3056) to enable a service provider to rapidly
172 deploy IPv6 unicast service to IPv4 sites to which it provides
173 customer premise equipment. Like 6to4, it utilizes stateless IPv6 in
174 IPv4 encapsulation in order to transit IPv4-only network
175 infrastructure. Unlike 6to4, a 6rd service provider uses an IPv6
176 prefix of its own in place of the fixed 6to4 prefix.
177
178 With this option enabled, the SIT driver offers 6rd functionality by

201 Tunneling means encapsulating data of one protocol type within

206 This driver is useful if the other endpoint is a Cisco router: Cisco
207 likes GRE much better than the other Linux tunneling driver ("IP
208 tunneling" above). In addition, GRE allows multicast redistribution
