1.16	02-May-2022	gutteridge	tap.4: trim introduction to match current reality As of 10.0, tap(4) can no longer be used as a bridge(4) endpoint, so avoid potentially confusing the reader, who'd later encounter the caveats section, noting use of vether(4) is required instead.
1.15	27-Sep-2020	roy	Note that opening and closing the tun/tap devices affects link state. And how this influences Duplicate Address Detection.
1.14	27-Sep-2020	roy	tap(4): Improve the description to differentiate from vether(4)
1.13	27-Sep-2020	roy	tap: Report link state based on if the interface has been opened or not While a nice addition, it does render tap(4) useless as a bridge(4) endpoint. We now have vether(4) for use as bridge endpoint.
