Let's introduce the basics for defining PANs: - structures defining a PAN - helpers for PAN registration - helpers discarding old PANs
I think the whole pan management can/should be stored in user space by a daemon running in background. This can be a network manager as it listens to netlink events as "detect PAN xy" and stores it and offers it in their list to associate with it. We need somewhere to draw a line and I guess the line is "Is this information used e.g. as any lookup or something in the hot path", I don't see this currently... - Alex
