116 ILA is a mechanism to do network virtualization without
117 encapsulation. The basic concept of ILA is that we split an
118 IPv6 address into a 64 bit locator and 64 bit identifier. The
119 identifier is the identity of an entity in communication
120 ("who") and the locator expresses the location of the
121 entity ("where").
122
123 ILA can be configured using the "encap ila" option with
124 "ip -6 route" command. ILA is described in
125 https://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-herbert-nvo3-ila-00.

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

206 customer premise equipment. Like 6to4, it utilizes stateless IPv6 in
207 IPv4 encapsulation in order to transit IPv4-only network

209 prefix of its own in place of the fixed 6to4 prefix.
