Subject: [PATCH 12/12] L2 network namespace (v3): L3 network namespace intro

From: Dmitry Mishin <[email-masked]>
Date: Wed, 17 Jan 2007 19:18:25 +0300

Inroduce two kind of network namespaces - level 2 and level 3. First one is
 namespace with full set of networking objects, while second one -
 socket-level with restricted set.
