12 You can say N here if you don't intend to connect your Linux box to
13 any other computer at all.
14
15 You'll have to say Y if your computer contains a network card that
16 you want to use under Linux. If you are going to run SLIP or PPP over
17 telephone line or null modem cable you need say Y here. Connecting
18 two machines with parallel ports using PLIP needs this, as well as
19 AX.25/KISS for sending Internet traffic over amateur radio links.
20
21 See also "The Linux Network Administrator's Guide" by Olaf Kirch and
22 Terry Dawson. Available at <http://www.tldp.org/guides.html>.

1da177e4
LT
32 ---help---
33 This is essentially a bit-bucket device (i.e. traffic you send to
34 this device is consigned into oblivion) with a configurable IP
35 address. It is most commonly used in order to make your currently
36 inactive SLIP address seem like a real address for local programs.
37 If you use SLIP or PPP, you might want to say Y here. Since this
38 thing often comes in handy, the default is Y. It won't enlarge your
39 kernel either. What a deal. Read about it in the Network
40 Administrator's Guide, available from
41 <http://www.tldp.org/docs.html#guide>.

43 To compile this driver as a module, choose M here: the module
44 will be called dummy. If you want to use more than one dummy
45 device at a time, you need to compile this driver as a module.
46 Instead of 'dummy', the devices will then be called 'dummy0',
47 'dummy1' etc.

53 Say 'Y' or 'M' if you wish to be able to 'bond' multiple Ethernet
54 Channels together. This is called 'Etherchannel' by Cisco,
55 'Trunking' by Sun, 802.3ad by the IEEE, and 'Bonding' in Linux.
56
57 The driver supports multiple bonding modes to allow for both high
58 perfomance and high availability operation.

69 If you have two serial connections to some other computer (this
70 usually requires two modems and two telephone lines) and you use
71 SLIP (the protocol for sending Internet traffic over telephone
72 lines) or PPP (a better SLIP) on them, you can make them behave like
73 one double speed connection using this driver. Naturally, this has
74 to be supported at the other end as well, either with a similar EQL
75 Linux driver or with a Livingston Portmaster 2e.
76
77 Say Y if you want this and read
78 <file:Documentation/networking/eql.txt>. You may also want to read
79 section 6.2 of the NET-3-HOWTO, available from

91 device, which instead of receiving packets from a physical media,
92 receives them from user space program and instead of sending packets
93 via physical media writes them to the user space program.
94
95 When a program opens /dev/net/tun, driver creates and registers
96 corresponding net device tunX or tapX. After a program closed above
97 devices, driver will automatically delete tunXX or tapXX device and
98 all routes corresponding to it.

111 ---help---
112 This is a driver for the General Instrument (also known as
113 NextLevel) SURFboard 1000 internal
114 cable modem. This is an ISA card which is used by a number of cable
115 TV companies to provide cable modem access. It's a one-way
116 downstream-only cable modem, meaning that your upstream net link is
117 provided by your regular phone modem.
118
119 At present this driver only compiles as a module, so say M here if
120 you have this card. The module will be called sb1000. Then read
121 <file:Documentation/networking/README.sb1000> for information on how
122 to use this module, as it needs special ppp scripts for establishing

145 ---help---
146 Ethernet (also called IEEE 802.3 or ISO 8802-2) is the most common
147 type of Local Area Network (LAN) in universities and companies.
148
149 Common varieties of Ethernet are: 10BASE-2 or Thinnet (10 Mbps over
150 coaxial cable, linking computers in a chain), 10BASE-T or twisted
151 pair (10 Mbps over twisted pair cable, linking computers to central
152 hubs), 10BASE-F (10 Mbps over optical fiber links, using hubs),
153 100BASE-TX (100 Mbps over two twisted pair cables, using hubs),
154 100BASE-T4 (100 Mbps over 4 standard voice-grade twisted pair
155 cables, using hubs), 100BASE-FX (100 Mbps over optical fiber links)
156 [the 100BASE varieties are also known as Fast Ethernet], and Gigabit
157 Ethernet (1 Gbps over optical fiber or short copper links).
158
159 If your Linux machine will be connected to an Ethernet and you have
160 an Ethernet network interface card (NIC) installed in your computer,
161 say Y here and read the Ethernet-HOWTO, available from
162 <http://www.tldp.org/docs.html#howto>. You will then also have
163 to say Y to the driver for your particular NIC.
164

2355 PLIP (Parallel Line Internet Protocol) is used to create a
2356 reasonably fast mini network consisting of two (or, rarely, more)
2357 local machines. A PLIP link from a Linux box is a popular means to
2358 install a Linux distribution on a machine which doesn't have a
2359 CD-ROM drive (a minimal system has to be transferred with floppies
2360 first). The kernels on both machines need to have this PLIP option
2361 enabled for this to work.
2362
2363 The PLIP driver has two modes, mode 0 and mode 1. The parallel
2364 ports (the connectors at the computers with 25 holes) are connected
2365 with "null printer" or "Turbo Laplink" cables which can transmit 4
2366 bits at a time (mode 0) or with special PLIP cables, to be used on
2367 bidirectional parallel ports only, which can transmit 8 bits at a
2368 time (mode 1); you can find the wiring of these cables in
2369 <file:Documentation/networking/PLIP.txt>. The cables can be up to
2370 15m long. Mode 0 works also if one of the machines runs DOS/Windows
2371 and has some PLIP software installed, e.g. the Crynwr PLIP packet
2372 driver (<http://oak.oakland.edu/simtel.net/msdos/pktdrvr-pre.html>)

2390 PPP (Point to Point Protocol) is a newer and better SLIP. It serves
2391 the same purpose: sending Internet traffic over telephone (and other
2392 serial) lines. Ask your access provider if they support it, because
2393 otherwise you can't use it; most Internet access providers these
2394 days support PPP rather than SLIP.
2395
2396 To use PPP, you need an additional program called pppd as described
2397 in the PPP-HOWTO, available at
2398 <http://www.tldp.org/docs.html#howto>. Make sure that you have
2399 the version of pppd recommended in <file:Documentation/Changes>.
2400 The PPP option enlarges your kernel by about 16 KB.
2401
2402 There are actually two versions of PPP: the traditional PPP for
2403 asynchronous lines, such as regular analog phone lines, and
2404 synchronous PPP which can be used over digital ISDN lines for
2405 example. If you want to use PPP over phone lines or other
2406 asynchronous serial lines, you need to say Y (or M) here and also to

2505 Support for PPP over Ethernet.
2506
2507 This driver requires the latest version of pppd from the CVS
2508 repository at cvs.samba.org. Alternatively, see the
2509 RoaringPenguin package (<http://www.roaringpenguin.com/pppoe>)
2510 which contains instruction on how to use this driver (under
2511 the heading "Kernel mode PPPoE").

2516 help
2517 Support PPP (Point to Point Protocol) encapsulated in ATM frames.
2518 This implementation does not yet comply with section 8 of RFC2364,
2519 which can lead to bad results if the ATM peer loses state and
2520 changes its encapsulation unilaterally.

2522config SLIP
2523 tristate "SLIP (serial line) support"

2524 ---help---
2525 Say Y if you intend to use SLIP or CSLIP (compressed SLIP) to
2526 connect to your Internet service provider or to connect to some
2527 other local Unix box or if you want to configure your Linux box as a
2528 Slip/CSlip server for other people to dial in. SLIP (Serial Line
2529 Internet Protocol) is a protocol used to send Internet traffic over
2530 serial connections such as telephone lines or null modem cables;
2531 nowadays, the protocol PPP is more commonly used for this same
2532 purpose.
2533
2534 Normally, your access provider has to support SLIP in order for you
2535 to be able to use it, but there is now a SLIP emulator called SLiRP
2536 around (available from
2537 <ftp://ibiblio.org/pub/Linux/system/network/serial/>) which
2538 allows you to use SLIP over a regular dial up shell connection. If
2539 you plan to use SLiRP, make sure to say Y to CSLIP, below. The
2540 NET-3-HOWTO, available from
2541 <http://www.tldp.org/docs.html#howto>, explains how to
2542 configure SLIP. Note that you don't need this option if you just
2543 want to run term (term is a program which gives you almost full
2544 Internet connectivity if you have a regular dial up shell account on
2545 some Internet connected Unix computer. Read
2546 <http://www.bart.nl/~patrickr/term-howto/Term-HOWTO.html>). SLIP
2547 support will enlarge your kernel by about 4 KB. If unsure, say N.
2548
2549 To compile this driver as a module, choose M here and read
2550 <file:Documentation/networking/net-modules.txt>. The module will be
2551 called slip.
2552
2553config SLIP_COMPRESSED
2554 bool "CSLIP compressed headers"
2555 depends on SLIP
2556 ---help---
2557 This protocol is faster than SLIP because it uses compression on the
2558 TCP/IP headers (not on the data itself), but it has to be supported
2559 on both ends. Ask your access provider if you are not sure and
2560 answer Y, just in case. You will still be able to use plain SLIP. If
2561 you plan to use SLiRP, the SLIP emulator (available from
2562 <ftp://ibiblio.org/pub/Linux/system/network/serial/>) which
2563 allows you to use SLIP over a regular dial up shell connection, you
2564 definitely want to say Y here. The NET-3-HOWTO, available from
2565 <http://www.tldp.org/docs.html#howto>, explains how to configure
2566 CSLIP. This won't enlarge your kernel.
2567
2568config SLIP_SMART
2569 bool "Keepalive and linefill"

2572 Adds additional capabilities to the SLIP driver to support the
2573 RELCOM line fill and keepalive monitoring. Ideal on poor quality
2574 analogue lines.
2575
2576config SLIP_MODE_SLIP6
2577 bool "Six bit SLIP encapsulation"
2578 depends on SLIP
2579 help
2580 Just occasionally you may need to run IP over hostile serial
2581 networks that don't pass all control characters or are only seven
2582 bit. Saying Y here adds an extra mode you can use with SLIP:
2583 "slip6". In this mode, SLIP will only send normal ASCII symbols over
2584 the serial device. Naturally, this has to be supported at the other
2585 end of the link as well. It's good enough, for example, to run IP
2586 over the async ports of a Camtec JNT Pad. If unsure, say N.

2591 help
2592 Fibre Channel is a high speed serial protocol mainly used to connect
2593 large storage devices to the computer; it is compatible with and
2594 intended to replace SCSI.
2595
2596 If you intend to use Fibre Channel, you need to have a Fibre channel
2597 adaptor card in your computer; say Y here and to the driver for your
2598 adaptor below. You also should have said Y to "SCSI support" and
2599 "SCSI generic support".

2601config SHAPER

2604 ---help---
2605 The traffic shaper is a virtual network device that allows you to
2606 limit the rate of outgoing data flow over some other network device.
2607 The traffic that you want to slow down can then be routed through
2608 these virtual devices. See
2609 <file:Documentation/networking/shaper.txt> for more information.
2610
2611 An alternative to this traffic shaper is the experimental
2612 Class-Based Queueing (CBQ) scheduling support which you get if you
2613 say Y to "QoS and/or fair queueing" above.
2614
2615 To set up and configure shaper devices, you need the shapecfg
2616 program, available from <ftp://shadow.cabi.net/pub/Linux/> in the
2617 shaper package.
2618
2619 To compile this driver as a module, choose M here: the module
2620 will be called shaper. If unsure, say N.
