#### Prerequisites/Setup:
WARNING: On some systems (i.e. Raspberry Pi) with integrated Ethernet, it seems promiscuous (PROMISC) mode is required on your `eth0` (see #1 next).
1. `eth0` is the **LAN** or **WAN** interface supporting external routing, DNS, etc., and is the **bridged** interface to a router that will statically route the entire desired network subnet (i.e. x.x.0.0/21) through it. You may also have an `eth1` (and so on, so forth) that you statically configure for your entire, wide subnet (i.e. x.x.0.0/21) if you want to use two physical adapters. If you do have more than one interface, make sure that `internal_gateway` is set to the router IP address that can route your personal Lixonet subnets, and not your WAN gateway (unless they're the same).
2. `tun` and `tap` are in `/etc/modules` to load at boot (https://www.cyberciti.biz/faq/linux-how-to-load-a-kernel-module-automatically-at-boot-time/) and the system has been rebooted afterwards.
3. IPv4 forwarding is on: `sysctl -w net.ipv4.ip_forward=1`
