* Add the tap driver.nsayer2000-07-201-0/+217
The tap driver is used to present a virtual Ethernet interface to the system. Packets presented by the network stack to the interface are made available to a character device in /dev. With tap and the bridge code, you can make remote bridge configurations where both sides of the bridge are separated by userland daemons. This driver also has a special naming hack to allow it to serve a similar purpose to the vmware port. Submitted by: myevmenkin@att.com, vsilyaev@mindspring.com
