IP-over-IP may be a confusing way to say what you get, which is more like:
"IP++ over IP"
IP++ gives you more than the base IP:
- topology abstraction
- isolating a set of addresses or services
- emulation
I.e., VMware will be complete only when we can run VMware inside a
VMware partition. The same is true for networks, which is why IP-over-IP
is the most meaningful virtualization of all, IMO.
