-2.13 Packet Tunneling
-
-Tunneling is a feature that is available in SILC protocol. Tunneling
-means that extra SILC Packet Header is applied to the original packet
-and thus hiding the original packet entirely. There can be some
-interesting applications using tunneling, such as, using ID's based on
-private network IP addresses inside in the tunneled packet. This can
-open many interesting features relating to connecting to private network
-from the Internet with SILC and many more. However, this feature is
-optional currently in SILC as there does not exist thorough analysis of
-this feature. It is with out a doubt that there will be many more
-applications that has not yet been discovered. Thus, it is left
-to Internet Community to investigate the use of tunneling in SILC
-protocol. This document is updated according those investigations
-and additional documents on the issue may be written.
