Module tun 

FIPS TUN Interface

Manages the TUN device for sending and receiving IPv6 packets. The TUN interface presents FIPS addresses to the local system, allowing standard socket applications to communicate over the mesh.

Platform-specific implementations:

• Linux: Uses the tun crate with rtnetlink for interface configuration
• macOS: Uses the tun crate with ifconfig/route for interface configuration
• Windows: Uses the wintun crate for TUN device support
