isatapd – creates and maintains an ISATAP tunnel

isatapd creates and maintains an ISATAP tunnel (rfc5214) in Linux.

It uses the in-kernel ISATAP support first introduced in linux-2.6.25. It does not operate the tunnel or handle any IPv6 traffic other than router solicitations and router advertisements.

The program will create the tunnel, periodically query the specified routers, add them to the potential router list , send periodic router solicitations and parse router advertisements. isatapd will try to keep the tunnel up and running, even if the network topology changes.

This is free and open source software.
