Subject: Tun/tap-variant for 802.15.4/6lowpan?

Hi,

I am working with a external radio module controlled over a serial
port and would like to use the linux 6lowpan implementation to make it
IP capable.

Is there something like the tun/tap-driver for 6lowpan that delivers
the raw frames back to userspace over a socket?

the simple answer is no. You would need to build an interface for this.

As a side note, we have the [email protected] mailing list that can be used for this kind of discussion.
