- `IfName`
- The name of the `tun` or `tap` network interface to create or use. Applications send packets over this interface to use the network.
- On most platforms, an empty string or the default `"auto"` will create a new interface automatically.
- You can also specify `none` as the interface name, in which case Yggdrasil will run as a router only without opening a network interface. This effectively allows Yggdrasil to carry traffic for other nodes without exposing the system to the network.

- The behaviour of this option is different on different operating systems. Some quick notes:
- On Linux, any suitable interface name can be specified.
- On FreeBSD, OpenBSD and NetBSD, a full path to the TAP interface should be specified, i.e. `/dev/tap0`.
- On FreeBSD, OpenBSD and NetBSD, a full path to the TAP interface should be specified, i.e. `"/dev/tap0"`.
- On macOS, a utun device is automatically assigned by the operating system, therefore you cannot specify a name.
- On Windows, a network adapter friendly name (like `Local Area Connection 2`) can be specified to choose a specific adapter. Use "Network Adapters" in Control Panel to see and/or rename adapters.

- `IfTAPMode`
- If true, then the interface will be a `tap` device (Layer 2) instead of a `tun` (Layer 3) device.
- Default value is platform specific, and some platforms support only `tun` or `tap` mode.
