| config IPV6_PRIVACY |
| bool "IPv6: Privacy Extensions (RFC 3041) support" |
| ---help--- |
| Privacy Extensions for Stateless Address Autoconfiguration in IPv6 |
| support. With this option, additional periodically-altered |
| pseudo-random global-scope unicast address(es) will be assigned to |
| your interface(s). |
| |
| We use our standard pseudo-random algorithm to generate the |
| randomized interface identifier, instead of one described in RFC 3041. |
| |
| By default the kernel does not generate temporary addresses. |
| To use temporary addresses, do |
| |
| echo 2 >/proc/sys/net/ipv6/conf/all/use_tempaddr |
| |
| See <file:Documentation/networking/ip-sysctl.txt> for details. |

| ---help--- |
| Tunneling means encapsulating data of one protocol type within |
| another protocol and sending it over a channel that understands the |
| encapsulating protocol. This driver implements encapsulation of IPv6 |
| into IPv4 packets. This is useful if you want to connect two IPv6 |
| networks over an IPv4-only path. |
| |
| Saying M here will produce a module called sit. If unsure, say Y. |

| config IPV6_SIT_6RD |
| bool "IPv6: IPv6 Rapid Deployment (6RD)" |
| depends on IPV6_SIT |
| default n |
| ---help--- |
| IPv6 Rapid Deployment (6rd; draft-ietf-softwire-ipv6-6rd) builds upon |
| mechanisms of 6to4 (RFC3056) to enable a service provider to rapidly |
| deploy IPv6 unicast service to IPv4 sites to which it provides |
| customer premise equipment. Like 6to4, it utilizes stateless IPv6 in |
| IPv4 encapsulation in order to transit IPv4-only network |
| infrastructure. Unlike 6to4, a 6rd service provider uses an IPv6 |
| prefix of its own in place of the fixed 6to4 prefix. |
| |
| With this option enabled, the SIT driver offers 6rd functionality by |
| providing additional ioctl API to configure the IPv6 Prefix for in |
| stead of static 2002::/16 for 6to4. |

| select IPV6_TUNNEL |
| select NET_IP_TUNNEL |
| ---help--- |
| Tunneling means encapsulating data of one protocol type within |
| another protocol and sending it over a channel that understands the |
| encapsulating protocol. This particular tunneling driver implements |
| GRE (Generic Routing Encapsulation) and at this time allows |
| encapsulating of IPv4 or IPv6 over existing IPv6 infrastructure. |
| This driver is useful if the other endpoint is a Cisco router: Cisco |
| likes GRE much better than the other Linux tunneling driver ("IP |
| tunneling" above). In addition, GRE allows multicast redistribution |
| through the tunnel. |
| |
| Saying M here will produce a module called ip6_gre. If unsure, say N. |

| bool "IPv6: source address based routing" |
| depends on IPV6_MULTIPLE_TABLES |
| ---help--- |
| Enable routing by source address or prefix. |
| |
| The destination address is still the primary routing key, so mixing |
| normal and source prefix specific routes in the same routing table |
| may sometimes lead to unintended routing behavior. This can be |
| avoided by defining different routing tables for the normal and |
| source prefix specific routes. |
| |
| If unsure, say N. |

| select FIB_RULES |
| help |
| Normally, a multicast router runs a userspace daemon and decides |
| what to do with a multicast packet based on the source and |
| destination addresses. If you say Y here, the multicast router |
| will also be able to take interfaces and packet marks into |
| account and run multiple instances of userspace daemons |
| simultaneously, each one handling a single table. |
