I tried this on a virtual box running NetBSD x86 and I was able to create tun0, I cannot tell the difference between these two installation, maybe because I am very now to NetBSD. Searching on the WWW did not get me any further.

This works fine on other evbarm machines and RPI2 should have the tun
device (via include RPI -> GENERIC.common).

Hello
Thank you very much for your response.
As the problem obviously is on my side, I will
try to get rid of it by doing an upgrade.

Hello
One more feedback:
I compiled a new kernel with explicit "pseudo-device tun" and now it works.
To me "tun" does not seem to be included:
----
root# grep tun RPI
[...]
#pseudo-device tun # network tunneling over tty
[...]
----
As I am content with compiling a kernel, I would not call it a problem,
but it was a bit confusing, as it worked in my test i386 netbsd VM out
of the box.
Thanks,
Joe

Yes, unfortunately there are differences between the platforms in what
drivers and other subsystems are compiled in a default kernel, even
when the code is machine-independent.
Kernel modules were supposed to ease the pain, but there is still a
long way to go.
