NAME
     KAME - introduction and roadmap to KAME IPv6 software package

DESCRIPTION
     KAME software package is a result of joint work of several IPv6 re-
     searchers in Japan, to provide reference implementation of IPv6 to Berke-
     ley Software Distribution (BSD) derived system such as BSD/OS, FreeBSD,
     NetBSD and OpenBSD (in alphabetical order).

     KAME kit consists of IPv6/IPsec-ready kernel, application, daemons, head-
     er files and libraries.

HIGHLIGHTS
     Following are some of highlights of this implementation.

   Kernel
     IPv6 and IPsec protocol stacks are implemented and available.  See below
     for conformance to standards and/or internet drafts.

   Plug and Play and protocol stack/interface configuration
     ndp(8),  prefix(8),  rrenumd(8),  rtadvd(8),  rtsol(8),  rtsold(8).

   Routing
     bgpd(8),  hroute6d(8),  rip6admin(8),  rip6query(8),  route6d(8).

   Multicast (includes routing and utilities)
     mcastread(1),  mcastsend(1),  mchat(1),  ifmcstat(8),  mld6query(8),
     pim6dd(8),	 pim6sd(8),  pim6stat(8).

   Transition Tools
     Two IPv4 to IPv6 transition tools are available.  TCP relay translator,
     FAITH (faithd(8)), and NAT-PT IPv6-to-v4 header translator implementation
     (natptconfig(8)).

   IPsec and tunnelling
     gifconfig(8),  ipsec(4),  dtcpc(8),  dtcps(8),  racoon(8),	 setkey(8).

     Dozen of existing tools are modified for IPsec support, like ping(8).

   Alternate queueing framework
     altqstat(1),  altqd(8).

   ATM PVC support
     pvc(4),  pvcbridge(8),  pvcsif(8),	 pvctxctl(8).

   Utilities/Diagnosis
     icmp6dump(8),  ping6(8),  traceroute6(8).

     Dozen of existing utilities are modified for IPv6/IPsec support, like
     ftp(1) and/or telnet(1).

   Application Daemons
     inetd(8) modified for IPv4/v6 support, or IPv6-only inet6d(8) is sup-
     plied.

     Dozen of existing daemons are modified for IPv6/IPsec support, like ft-
     pd(8) and/or telnetd(8).

DOCUMENTATION
     Although some of documentations have not modified yet, program itself may
     be heavily modified.  Following lists are not complete, but give you some
     idea what kind of new software modules are available, or, modifications
     are made.	Please refer to each manual page for detail.  Manpages are in-
     stalled into /usr/local/v6/man so you may want to add the pathname to
     MANPATH.

   Installation and basic usage documentations
     Please read following files in directory /usr/local/v6/share/doc/kame to
     get basic idea and installation methods on KAME: README, RELNOTES, USAGE
     and IMPLEMENTATION. Also check latest status of project at web page:
     http://www.kame.net/. (Hope you can see a ``Dancing Turtle'' :-))

   APIs introduced or modified
     if_indextoname(3),	 getipnodebyname(3),  gethostbyname(3),
     rresvport_af(3),  hosts_ctl(3),  ipsec_get_policylen(3),  getnameinfo(3),
      freeaddrinfo(3),	getaddrinfo(3),	 pcap(3),  getipnodebyaddr(3),
     resolver(3),  ipsec_strerror(3),  gai_strerror(3),	 hosts_access(3),
     request_set(3),  request_init(3),	freehostent(3),	 if_nameindex(3),
     if_freenameindex(3),  if_nametoindex(3),  ipsec_dump_policy(3),
     ipsec_set_policy(3)

   Added/modified/renamed features and tools
     Please consult the manpages referred above.
