Thanks for your response Francisco. I just quickly browsed through the Pull Request. Its seems like I have to run the IP stack between the border router and the end device, which is something I do not want. The code we are running runs CCN-lite directly over Ethernet towards the border router and CCN-lite directly over 802.15.4 between the border router and the end device. I have managed to run CCN-lite in RIOT on a border router with Ethernet as the underlying layer on the north bound interface and CCN on 802.15.4 on the southbound interface. Running it on IP would require more work. Maybe porting ethos.c for Mac OS would be a quicker solution, but it might turn out to be harder than one would expect.

I’ll try to address this sometime, but I think it won’t be done soon. However, there is [1] which works on OS X and can act as a Border Router, but it’s not merged yet and I found some issues on my last trial, but I tested it successfully before so I think this is a promising (and fast) solution to have a BR working on OS X. I hope this helps.

There only seems to be a linux port of this. The file ethos.c includes linux/if.h and linux/if_tun.h which do not exist in Mac OS. Is there a way to run ethos in Mac OS?
