To recover from this mode, one needs to flash a valid NVM image to the
host host controller in the same way it is done in the previous chapter.

Networking over Thunderbolt cable
---------------------------------
Thunderbolt technology allows software communication across two hosts
connected by a Thunderbolt cable.

It is possible to tunnel any kind of traffic over Thunderbolt link but
currently we only support Apple ThunderboltIP protocol.

If the other host is running Windows or macOS only thing you need to
do is to connect Thunderbolt cable between the two hosts, the
``thunderbolt-net`` is loaded automatically. If the other host is also
Linux you should load ``thunderbolt-net`` manually on one host (it does
not matter which one)::

  # modprobe thunderbolt-net

This triggers module load on the other host automatically. If the driver
is built-in to the kernel image, there is no need to do anything.

The driver will create one virtual ethernet interface per Thunderbolt
port which are named like ``thunderbolt0`` and so on. From this point
you can either use standard userspace tools like ``ifconfig`` to
configure the interface or let your GUI to handle it automatically.
