[OpenIndiana-discuss] Cisco IPSec VPN

I'm sure the tun pseudo interface "tun" can take multiple
clients using it at the same time.
I see that "tun" interface as an interface which can send
and recive packets through an API which is convenient to
e.g. openconnect, openvpn and so on.

Actual packages leave and enter the system through the regular
interaces of the global zone. This is the same as if a shared
or an exclusive interface would be used with a NGZ. Only exception
I can see is, if you assign an exclusive interface to a NGZ;
then this interface is out of reach for the tun interface.
But this would need an investigation to be sure.
And it would not change the game, as its the already crypted
stuff going over the wire.

Regards,
Thomas
