Export tunneling endpoint as a file

[nelishiba]

Abstract

If realizing some tunneling protocol such as VXLAN and GRE, applications create the both tunneling part and tunneled part with the current API.

in the case of VXLAN

• tunneling part: Ethernet → IPv4 → UDP
• tunneled part: Ethernet → IPv4 → TCP (for example)

Export tunneling endpoint as a file

exlay endpoint would like to be exported as a file.
when an exlay API opens the file, application create a stack on it.
