This was rather a hack and the SMF approach was to supersede that, keeping data in the data plane where it belongs.

the OLSR (v1) implementation of olsr.org had a "BMF" plugin that did
exactly that... encapsulating IP traffic into OLSR messages to forward
them.

It wasn't a nice thing, good that we did not standardize this.
