Interface ItsNat

All Superinterfaces:

ItsNatUserData

public interface ItsNat
extends ItsNatUserData

Is the root interface of the ItsNat infrastructure. It works as a root factory because almost every ItsNat object is created directed or indirectly using this class.

The feature registry, (getFeature(String) and setFeature(String,Object)) may be used to setup ItsNat. Current implementation does not define any default configurable feature.
