This IFACE option is used for declaring the log level as one of +-v+,
+-vv+ or +-vvv+, and to nominate the log file. If omitted, all the
-+rrqnet+ process output will be directed to +/dev/null+.
++rrqnet+ process output will be directed to +/dev/null+. If

++syslog+. Otherwise, stderr is appended to the nominated file.

all its options are used for declaring that tunneling. The

NOTES
-----
Note that the +rrqnet+ virtual cable requires real networking for its
UDP tunnel traffic. The real packets will have a UDP header in
addition to the orignal packet, which means that it grows packets with
-24 or 48 bytes (for ipv4 and ipv6 respectively). This may cause packet
-fragmentation of the tunneling packets unless the associated +tap+ is
-configured with that much smaller MTU than the real traffic.
+some 28/48 (ipv4/6) bytes. This may cause packet fragmentation of the
+tunneling packets which might be mitigated by configuring the
+associated +tap+ that much smaller MTU.
