+ Support for IPv6 Identifier Locator Addressing (ILA).
+
+ ILA is a mechanism to do network virtualization without
+ encapsulation. The basic concept of ILA is that we split an
+ IPv6 address into a 64 bit locator and 64 bit identifier. The
+ identifier is the identity of an entity in communication
+ ("who") and the locator expresses the location of the
+ entity ("where").
+
+ ILA can be configured using the "encap ila" option with
+ "ip -6 route" command. ILA is described in
+ https://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-herbert-nvo3-ila-00.
