Help¶

Enable a 6LoCAN Ethernet translator. With this translator it is possible to connect a 6LoCAN network to a Ethernet network directly, via a Switch or trough a router. Messages that goes through the translator have a special address and the MAC address is carried inline. The packet is forwarded with uncompressed IPv6 header.
