TashRouter has been officially integrated into A2SERVER!

Here are the changes to allow systemd to terminate TashRouter cleanly.

I have been away from Apples for a bit, but just got back to pickup the thread here again. I notice the latest TashRouter has a new interface called MacvtapPort but still retains the older TapPort. My startup program uses the latter. What is the difference between them? Is there a reason I'd want to switch?

OK, here is my TashRouter/netatalk on the same machine setup. [...]

tap0 -seed -phase 2 -net 3 -zone "A2SERVER"
eth0 -seed -phase 2 -net 2 -zone "A2SERVER"
