+ * @addtogroup data_crypto Data Channel Crypto module
+ *
+ * The Data Channel Crypto Module performs cryptographic operations on
+ * data channel packets.
+ *
+ * @par Security parameters
+ * This module is merely the user of a VPN tunnel's security parameters.
+ * It does not perform the negotiation and setup of the security
+ * parameters, nor the %key generation involved.  These actions are done
+ * by the \link control_processor Control Channel Processor\endlink.  This
+ * module receives the appropriate security parameters from that module in
+ * the form of a \c crypto_options structure when they are necessary for
+ * processing a packet.
+ *
+ * @par Packet processing functions
+ * This module receives data channel packets from the \link data_control
+ * Data Channel Control module\endlink and processes them according to the
+ * security parameters of the packet's VPN tunnel.  The \link data_control
+ * Data Channel Control module\endlink uses the following interface
+ * functions:
+ *  - For packets which will be sent to a remote OpenVPN peer:
+ *     - \c tls_pre_encrypt()
+ *     - \c openvpn_encrypt()
+ *     - \c tls_post_encrypt()
+ *  - For packets which have been received from a remote OpenVPN peer:
+ *     - \c tls_pre_decrypt() (documented as part of the \link
+ *       external_multiplexer External Multiplexer\endlink)
+ *     - \c openvpn_decrypt()
+ *
+ * @par Settings that control this module's activity
+ * How the data channel processes packets received from the \link data_control
+ * Data Channel Control module\endlink at runtime depends on the associated
+ * \c crypto_options structure.  To perform cryptographic operations, the
+ * \c crypto_options.key_ctx_bi must contain the correct cipher and HMAC
+ * security parameters for the direction the packet is traveling in.
+ *
+ * @par Crypto algorithms
+ * This module uses the crypto algorithm implementations of the external
+ * crypto library (currently either OpenSSL (default), or mbed TLS).
