<p>Reticulum supports using many kinds of devices as networking interfaces, and
allows you to mix and match them in any way you choose. The number of distinct
network topologies you can create with Reticulum is more or less endless, but
common to them all is that you will need to define one or more <em>interfaces</em>
for Reticulum to use.</p>
<p>The following sections describe the interfaces currently available in Reticulum,
and gives example configurations for the respective interface types.</p>
<p>For a high-level overview of how networks can be formed over different interface
types, have a look at the <a class="reference internal" href="networks.html#networks-main"><span class="std std-ref">Building Networks</span></a> chapter of this
manual.</p>
<div class="section" id="auto-interface">
<span id="interfaces-auto"></span><h2>Auto Interface<a class="headerlink" href="#auto-interface" title="Permalink to this headline"></a></h2>
<p>The Auto Interface enables communication with other discoverable Reticulum
nodes over autoconfigured IPv6 and UDP. It does not need any functional IP
infrastructure like routers or DHCP servers, but will require at least some
sort of switching medium between peers (a wired switch, a hub, a WiFi access
point or similar), and that link-local IPv6 is enabled in your operating
system, which should be enabled by default in almost all OSes.</p>

<p>If you are connected to the Internet with IPv6, and your provider will route
IPv6 multicast, you can potentially configure the Auto Interface to globally

the discovery scope by setting it to one of <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">link</span></code>, <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">admin</span></code>, <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">site</span></code>,

<span id="interfaces-udp"></span><h2>UDP Interface<a class="headerlink" href="#udp-interface" title="Permalink to this headline"></a></h2>
<p>A UDP interface can be useful for communicating over IP networks, both
private and the internet. It can also allow broadcast communication
over IP networks, so it can provide an easy way to enable connectivity
with all other peers on a local area network.</p>
<p><em>Please Note!</em> Using broadcast UDP traffic has performance implications,
especially on WiFi. If your goal is simply to enable easy communication
with all peers in your local ethernet broadcast domain, the
<a class="reference internal" href="#interfaces-auto"><span class="std std-ref">Auto Interface</span></a> performs better, and is just as
easy to use.</p>

<p>If youre using Reticulum on amateur radio spectrum, you might want to
use the AX.25 KISS interface. This way, Reticulum will automatically
encapsulate its traffic in AX.25 and also identify your stations

<p>Only do this if you really need to! Reticulum doesnt need the AX.25
layer for anything, and it incurs extra overhead on every packet to
encapsulate in AX.25.</p>
