Not really . The parsing different than the forming of NL messages. On 
my test machine:

~~~
11: eth0 at NONE: <POINTOPOINT,NOARP> mtu 1234 qdisc noop state DOWN mode 
DEFAULT group default
     link/ipip 192.168.21.1 peer 192.168.21.2
12: eth1: <POINTOPOINT,NOARP> mtu 1234 qdisc noop state DOWN mode 
DEFAULT group default
     link/sit 192.168.21.3 peer 192.168.21.4
~~~


Thanks !
