+**Offloaded sockets driver**
+  This driver is an alternative to the :ref:`TAP based ethernet driver
+  <nsim_per_ethe>`. Instead of using a virtual network in the Linux side, this
+  driver utilizes Linux's standard BSD socket API. With this, multiple Zephyr
+  applications can communicate over the Linux loopback interface.
+  The benefit of this approach is that root privileges are not required and
+  that the process is connected to the same interface as other Linux processes
+  instead of a virtual network, facilitating testing without the need for extra
+  setup in the host. The drawback is that the L2 layer of Zephyr's networking
+  stack is not exercised.
