10 You can say N here if you don't intend to connect your Linux box to
11 any other computer at all.
12
13 You'll have to say Y if your computer contains a network card that
14 you want to use under Linux. If you are going to run SLIP or PPP over
15 telephone line or null modem cable you need say Y here. Connecting
16 two machines with parallel ports using PLIP needs this, as well as
17 AX.25/KISS for sending Internet traffic over amateur radio links.

48 If you use SLIP or PPP, you might want to say Y here. Since this
49 thing often comes in handy, the default is Y. It won't enlarge your

126 TV companies to provide cable modem access. It's a one-way
127 downstream-only cable modem, meaning that your upstream net link is
128 provided by your regular phone modem.

131 you have this card. The module will be called sb1000. Then read
132 <file:Documentation/networking/README.sb1000> for information on how

155 Ethernet (also called IEEE 802.3 or ISO 8802-2) is the most common
156 type of Local Area Network (LAN) in universities and companies.
157
158 Common varieties of Ethernet are: 10BASE-2 or Thinnet (10 Mbps over
159 coaxial cable, linking computers in a chain), 10BASE-T or twisted
160 pair (10 Mbps over twisted pair cable, linking computers to central
161 hubs), 10BASE-F (10 Mbps over optical fiber links, using hubs),
162 100BASE-TX (100 Mbps over two twisted pair cables, using hubs),
163 100BASE-T4 (100 Mbps over 4 standard voice-grade twisted pair
164 cables, using hubs), 100BASE-FX (100 Mbps over optical fiber links)
165 [the 100BASE varieties are also known as Fast Ethernet], and Gigabit
166 Ethernet (1 Gbps over optical fiber or short copper links).
167
168 If your Linux machine will be connected to an Ethernet and you have
169 an Ethernet network interface card (NIC) installed in your computer,
170 say Y here and read the Ethernet-HOWTO, available from
171 <http://www.tldp.org/docs.html#howto>. You will then also have
172 to say Y to the driver for your particular NIC.
173
174 Note that the answer to this question won't directly affect the
175 kernel: saying N will just cause the configurator to skip all
176 the questions about Ethernet network cards. If unsure, say N.

2605 PLIP (Parallel Line Internet Protocol) is used to create a

2607 local machines. A PLIP link from a Linux box is a popular means to
2608 install a Linux distribution on a machine which doesn't have a

2610 first). The kernels on both machines need to have this PLIP option
2611 enabled for this to work.
2612
2613 The PLIP driver has two modes, mode 0 and mode 1. The parallel
2614 ports (the connectors at the computers with 25 holes) are connected
2615 with "null printer" or "Turbo Laplink" cables which can transmit 4
2616 bits at a time (mode 0) or with special PLIP cables, to be used on
2617 bidirectional parallel ports only, which can transmit 8 bits at a
2618 time (mode 1); you can find the wiring of these cables in
2619 <file:Documentation/networking/PLIP.txt>. The cables can be up to
2620 15m long. Mode 0 works also if one of the machines runs DOS/Windows
2621 and has some PLIP software installed, e.g. the Crynwr PLIP packet

2644 otherwise you can't use it; most Internet access providers these
2645 days support PPP rather than SLIP.
