Create basic TUN Network adapter implementation. #264

Open kb1lqd opened 7 years ago

kb1lqd commented 7 years ago

Impelmenting a TUN network adapter to send data over Faraday allows computers communicating over Faraday to utilize existing network protocols and functions. This allows TCP/UDP to be passed through Faraday.

It is useful for HAB 3 to send live images. It is also useful to Faraday users for general data sharing, digital voice, etc...

The path for Linux development with TUN seems to be documented and in my fork of this repository I implemented a basic TUN adapter for Faraday (needs fixing though).

Windows TUN/TAP

Windows is a tougher beast to find documentation on but I did find great info/resources on the OpenWSN website!

It may not be as scriptable or seemless (yet or at first glance) but it is a great step forward!
