Description :
TUN/TAP provides packet reception and transmission for user space programs.
It can be viewed as a simple Point-to-Point or Ethernet device, which
instead of receiving packets from a physical media, receives them from
user space program and instead of sending packets via physical media
writes them to the user space program.
The tun package provides a simple Glue package which can be easily
listed as a requirement by tun-using 3rd-party projects. The tun
package performs the necessary steps or delivers the necessary files
in order to prepare the target system for installation of the
3rd-party app. Until such time as every conceivable tun-using
target environment is standardized, including the run RPM in a
dependencies list easily ensures that the 3rd part application is
properly configured by a small, neutral, common package.
