188 Ethernet (also called IEEE 802.3 or ISO 8802-2) is the most common
189 type of Local Area Network (LAN) in universities and companies.

191 Common varieties of Ethernet are: 10BASE-2 or Thinnet (10 Mbps over
192 coaxial cable, linking computers in a chain), 10BASE-T or twisted
193 pair (10 Mbps over twisted pair cable, linking computers to central
194 hubs), 10BASE-F (10 Mbps over optical fiber links, using hubs),
195 100BASE-TX (100 Mbps over two twisted pair cables, using hubs),
196 100BASE-T4 (100 Mbps over 4 standard voice-grade twisted pair
197 cables, using hubs), 100BASE-FX (100 Mbps over optical fiber links)
198 [the 100BASE varieties are also known as Fast Ethernet], and Gigabit
199 Ethernet (1 Gbps over optical fiber or short copper links).

2796 ---help---
2797 PLIP (Parallel Line Internet Protocol) is used to create a
2798 reasonably fast mini network consisting of two (or, rarely, more)
2799 local machines. A PLIP link from a Linux box is a popular means to
2800 install a Linux distribution on a machine which doesn't have a
2801 CD-ROM drive (a minimal system has to be transferred with floppies
2802 first). The kernels on both machines need to have this PLIP option
2803 enabled for this to work.
2804
2805 The PLIP driver has two modes, mode 0 and mode 1. The parallel
2806 ports (the connectors at the computers with 25 holes) are connected
2807 with "null printer" or "Turbo Laplink" cables which can transmit 4
2808 bits at a time (mode 0) or with special PLIP cables, to be used on
2809 bidirectional parallel ports only, which can transmit 8 bits at a
2810 time (mode 1); you can find the wiring of these cables in
2811 <file:Documentation/networking/PLIP.txt>. The cables can be up to
2812 15m long. Mode 0 works also if one of the machines runs DOS/Windows
2813 and has some PLIP software installed, e.g. the Crynwr PLIP packet
2814 driver (<http://oak.oakland.edu/simtel.net/msdos/pktdrvr-pre.html>)
2815 and winsock or NCSA's telnet.

2818 as the NET-3-HOWTO, both available from

2831 ---help---
2832 PPP (Point to Point Protocol) is a newer and better SLIP. It serves
2833 the same purpose: sending Internet traffic over telephone (and other
2834 serial) lines. Ask your access provider if they support it, because
2835 otherwise you can't use it; most Internet access providers these
2836 days support PPP rather than SLIP.
2837
2838 To use PPP, you need an additional program called pppd as described
2839 in the PPP-HOWTO, available at
2840 <http://www.tldp.org/docs.html#howto>. Make sure that you have
2841 the version of pppd recommended in <file:Documentation/Changes>.
2842 The PPP option enlarges your kernel by about 16 KB.
2843
2844 There are actually two versions of PPP: the traditional PPP for
2845 asynchronous lines, such as regular analog phone lines, and
2846 synchronous PPP which can be used over digital ISDN lines for
2847 example. If you want to use PPP over phone lines or other
2848 asynchronous serial lines, you need to say Y (or M) here and also to
2849 the next option, "PPP support for async serial ports". For PPP over
2850 synchronous lines, you should say Y (or M) here and to "Support
2851 synchronous PPP", below.
2852
