The MIT Lincoln Laboratory DLEP (LL-DLEP) is an implementation of the Dynamic Link Exchange Protocol, an IETF standards-track protocol (https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/rfc8175/) that specifies a radio-to-router interface. It is an IP network protocol that runs between a radio/modem and a router over a direct (single hop) connection. Its primary purpose is to enable the modem to tell the router about destinations (other computers/networks) that the modem can reach, and to provide metrics associated with those destinations. The router can then make routing decisions based on that information.

This README describes how to build and run the Dlep implementation developed at MIT Lincoln Laboratory. See RELEASENOTES.md for what has changed in this release.
