+.Sh NAME
+.Nm faith
+.Nd IPv6-to-IPv4 TCP relay capturing interface
+.Sh SYNOPSIS
+.Cd "pseudo-device faith"
+.Sh DESCRIPTION
+The
+.Nm
+interface captures IPv6 TCP traffic,
+for implementing userland IPv6-to-IPv4 TCP relay
+like
+.Xr faithd 8 .
+.Pp
+.Nm
+interfaces are dynamically created and destroyed with the
+.Xr ifconfig 8
+.Cm create
+and
+.Cm destroy
+subcommands.
+.Pp
+Special action will be taken when IPv6 TCP traffic is seen on a router,
+and the routing table suggests to route it to the
+.Nm
+interface.
+In this case, the packet will be accepted by the router,
+regardless of the list of IPv6 interface addresses assigned to the router.
+The packet will be captured by an IPv6 TCP socket, if it has the
+.Dv IN6P_FAITH
+flag turned on and matching address/port pairs.
+As a result,
+.Nm
+will let you capture IPv6 TCP traffic to some specific destination addresses.
+Userland programs, such as
+.Xr faithd 8
+can use this behavior to relay IPv6 TCP traffic to IPv4 TCP traffic.
+The program can accept some specific IPv6 TCP traffic, perform
+.Xr getsockname 2
+to get the IPv6 destination address specified by the client,
+and perform application-specific address mapping to relay IPv6 TCP to IPv4 TCP.
+.Pp
+.Dv IN6P_FAITH
+flag on an IPv6 TCP socket can be set by using
+.Xr setsockopt 2 ,
+with level
+.Dv IPPROTO_IPV6
+and optname
+.Dv IPv6_FAITH .
+.Pp
+To handle error reports by ICMPv6, some ICMPv6 packets routed to an
+.Nm
+interface will be delivered to IPv6 TCP, as well.
+.Pp
+To understand how
+.Nm
+can be used, take a look at the source code of
+.Xr faithd 8 .
+.Pp
+As the
+.Nm
+interface implements potentially dangerous operations,
+great care must be taken when configuring it.
+To avoid possible misuse, the
+.Xr sysctl 8
+variable
+.Li net.inet6.ip6.keepfaith
+must be set to
+.Li 1
+prior to using the interface.
+When
+.Li net.inet6.ip6.keepfaith
+is
+.Li 0 ,
+no packets will be captured by the
+.Nm
+interface.
+.Pp
+The
+.Nm
+interface is intended to be used on routers, not on hosts.
