31.Os
32.Sh NAME
33.Nm ng_gif_demux
34.Nd demultiplexer for packets from
35.Xr ng_gif 4
36nodes
37.Sh SYNOPSIS
38.In netgraph/ng_gif_demux.h
39.Sh DESCRIPTION
40The
41.Nm
42netgraph node type demultiplexes the output from
43.Xr ng_gif 4
44nodes in the
45.Xr netgraph 4
46networking subsystem.
47.Pp
48The
49.Dv gif
50hook is meant to be connected to the
51.Dv lower
52or
53.Dv orphans
54hook of an
55.Xr ng_gif 4
56node.
57The
58.Dv inet , inet6 , atalk , ipx , atm , natm ,
59and
60.Dv ns
61hooks output frames of the given type when they are received on the
62.Dv gif
63hook.
64When a frame is received on one of these hooks, it is encapsulated and
65sent out the
66.Dv gif
67hook.
68.Sh HOOKS
69This node type supports the following hooks:
70.Bl -tag -width ".Dv inet6"
71.It Va gif
72Connection to the
73.Dv lower
74or
75.Dv orphans
76hook of an
77.Xr ng_gif 4
78node.
79.It Va inet
80Hook for input and output of IP frames.
81.It Va inet6
82Hook for input and output of IPv6 frames.
83.It Va atalk
84Hook for input and output of AppleTalk frames.
85.It Va ipx
86Hook for input and output of IPX frames.
87.It Va atm
88Hook for input and output of ATM frames.
89.It Va natm
90Hook for input and output of NATM frames.
91.It Va ns
92Hook for input and output of NS frames.
93.El
94.Sh CONTROL MESSAGES
95This node type supports only the generic control messages.
