Development files for the LWIPv6 library

LWIPv6 is a user level TCP/IP stack with the following features:

Physical layer: ARP support, TUN/TAP/VDE drivers support.

Network layer: IP forwarding, fragmentation, NAT, IPv6 Stateless Address Autoconfiguration, Router Advertising support.

Transport layer: TCP: congestion control, RTT estimation, fast recovery, fast retransmit; UDP.

Berkeley Socket API: Protocol families PF_INET, PF_INET6, PF_PACKET, partial PF_NETLINK support; Socket types SOCK_STREAM, SOCK_DGRAM, SOCK_RAW support.

LWIPv6 is used, for instance, by a UMView module to support user level networking and configuration, usually together with VDE.

LWIPv6, along with UMView, is part of the View-OS project: http://wiki.virtualsquare.org

This package contains the files needed to compile applications that link LWIPv6.
