Use if_tunnel_check_nesting() for ng_iface(4).


# 45c203fc 14-Mar-2014 Gleb Smirnoff <glebius@FreeBSD.org>

Remove AppleTalk support.

AppleTalk was a network transport protocol for Apple Macintosh devices
in 80s and then 90s. Starting with Mac OS X in 2000 the AppleTalk was
a legacy protocol and primary networking protocol is TCP/IP. The last
Mac OS X release to support AppleTalk happened in 2009. The same year
routing equipment vendors (namely Cisco) end their support.

Thus, AppleTalk won't be supported in FreeBSD 11.0-RELEASE.


# 2c284d93 13-Mar-2014 Gleb Smirnoff <glebius@FreeBSD.org>

Remove IPX support.

IPX was a network transport protocol in Novell's NetWare network operating
system from late 80s and then 90s. The NetWare itself switched to TCP/IP
as default transport in 1998. Later, in this century the Novell Open
Enterprise Server became successor of Novell NetWare. The last release
that claimed to still support IPX was OES 2 in 2007. Routing equipment
vendors (e.g. Cisco) discontinued support for IPX in 2011.

Thus, IPX won't be supported in FreeBSD 11.0-RELEASE.

by /etc/rc.d/jail.

- Import the HEAD csup code which is the basis for the cvsmode work.

Bump cookie value to reflect change in NGM_IFACE_GET_IFNAME semantics.


# 72369c34 03-Feb-2005 Ruslan Ermilov <ru@FreeBSD.org>

Parse "getifname" using the standard parse string type.

Fixed an off-by-one error when dealing with interface name
(if_xname is NUL-terminated).

Don't waste time making a copy of if_xname in constructor.

Finish driving a stake through the heart of netns and the associated
ifdefs scattered around the place - its dead Jim!

The SMB stuff had stolen AF_NS, make it official.

Since neither archie nor I work at Whistle any more, change our email
addresses to be the more usefu @freebsd.org ones
so we can keep getting bug-reports.
- man pages to follow..


# 15ba31b9 13-Mar-2000 Archie Cobbs <archie@FreeBSD.org>

Updates to the ng_iface(8) netgraph node type:
- Make iface nodes removable on shutdown since FreeBSD now supports
removable interfaces
- Simplify supporting new protocols using family_enqueue(); add a
few new ones including IPv6
- Add support for configurable interface mode using new
NGM_IFACE_POINT2POINT and NGM_IFACE_BROADCAST control messages
- Remove NGM_IFACE_GET_IFADDRS control message; it just duplicates
the functionality of SIOCGIFCONF


# 4cf49a43 21-Oct-1999 Julian Elischer <julian@FreeBSD.org>

Been in production for 3 years now. Gives Instant Frame relay to if_sr
and if_ar drivers, and PPPOE support soon. See:
