An RFC8994 implementation Rust for using Linux network namespace to implement the RFC8994 Autonomic Control Plane.

Hermes Connect is a supervisor deamon for deploying an RFC8994 Autonomic Control Plane (ACP) to a Linux based host.

(It is designed to use as few OS-specific resources as possible in order to be deployable to as many environments as possible. Since the ACP provides virtual out-of-band access to the host, dependancies upon the host environment creates more risk that the ACP might not operate when needed)

In order to operate, it requires some additional modules:

• An IPsec/IKEv2 daemon, such as OpenswanX.
• An RFC6550 RPL daemon, such as Unstrung.
• An RFC8995 BRSKI client
• A manufacturer deployed IDevID certificate and private key.

The file Architecture provides some context for how each component goes together.
