Description Tom Henderson 2010-07-27 08:46:59 UTC

We should add the ability to cleanly insert a protocol layer between transport (UDP, TCP) and IP.  For example, IPsec ESP, or MANET DSR.  See discussion thread here:

Comment 1 Tom Henderson 2010-10-05 04:44:37 UTC

This changeset should be the basis of the solution:

there are some objects that are not yet disposed of correctly, but otherwise it seems to work as expected.
