Detailed Description

Layer 2 packet interface

This module defines an interface for layer 2 (link layer) packet sendinf and receiving. All the wrappers for supported mechanisms are also included here. This is used to port packet access for new operating systems without having to make rest of the source code depend on which OS network stack is used.
