I think, most of this can be done with ngctl and appropriate scripts. And
yes, it replaces the HARP stack (but you could run them in parallel).

There is one interface for the physical NATM device fatm0. To do IP over
PVC's this is sufficent, you don't even need netgraph. For SVCs there will
be additional interfaces.

I wonder about that problem. Who does this fragmentation? IP? This would
mean it get's the wrong MTU from the ATM driver.
