+Open-IPv8-Lab is an experimental userspace toolkit implementing [draft-thain-ipv8-00](https://www.ietf.org/archive/id/draft-thain-ipv8-00.html) — the Internet Protocol Version 8 specification. It covers ASN-based 64-bit addressing, packet encoding/decoding, two-tier routing, ICMPv8, 8to4 tunnelling, security filtering, VRF, PVRST, Cost Factor, WHOIS8, DHCP8, Zone Server (OAuth8/ACL8), NetLog8 telemetry, all companion spec modules, end-to-end integration scenarios, multi-zone simulation, BGP8 path selection with CF metric, XLATE8 north-south traffic flow, PCAP export for Wireshark integration, IPv8 packet fragmentation and reassembly, NAT8, NetFlow8, QoS, Docker testbed, TUI dashboard, packet fuzzer, mTLS encryption layer, and interactive Zone Server CLI.
+
+Created and maintained by Aleksei Aleinikov ([@LF3551](https://github.com/LF3551)).
