+ * @addtogroup internal_multiplexer Internal Multiplexer module
+ *
+ * The Internal Multiplexer is the link between the virtual tun/tap
+ * network interface and the \link data_control Data Channel Control
+ * module\endlink. It reads packets from the virtual network interface,
+ * determines for which remote OpenVPN peer they are destined, and then
+ * passes the packets on to the Data Channel Control module together with
+ * information about their destination VPN tunnel instance.
+ *
+ * This module also handles packets traveling in the reverse direction,
+ * which have already been processed by the Data Channel Control module
+ * and are destined for a locally reachable host.
