IIeee8021aeTagEpdHeaderInserter

module interface

Module interface for IEEE 802.1AE (MACsec) tag header inserters. Implementations process outgoing frames to add IEEE 802.1AE security tags with EtherType Protocol Discrimination (EPD), encapsulate packet data in encrypted chunks, and add security parameters including Secure Channel Identifier (SCI) and packet number (PN) as defined in the IEEE 802.1AE standard for MAC security.
