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

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

157 you have this card. The module will be called sb1000. Then read

181 Ethernet (also called IEEE 802.3 or ISO 8802-2) is the most common
182 type of Local Area Network (LAN) in universities and companies.
183
184 Common varieties of Ethernet are: 10BASE-2 or Thinnet (10 Mbps over
185 coaxial cable, linking computers in a chain), 10BASE-T or twisted
186 pair (10 Mbps over twisted pair cable, linking computers to central
187 hubs), 10BASE-F (10 Mbps over optical fiber links, using hubs),
188 100BASE-TX (100 Mbps over two twisted pair cables, using hubs),
189 100BASE-T4 (100 Mbps over 4 standard voice-grade twisted pair
190 cables, using hubs), 100BASE-FX (100 Mbps over optical fiber links)
191 [the 100BASE varieties are also known as Fast Ethernet], and Gigabit
192 Ethernet (1 Gbps over optical fiber or short copper links).

195 an Ethernet network interface card (NIC) installed in your computer,
196 say Y here and read the Ethernet-HOWTO, available from

LT
2760 ---help---
2761 PLIP (Parallel Line Internet Protocol) is used to create a
2762 reasonably fast mini network consisting of two (or, rarely, more)
2763 local machines. A PLIP link from a Linux box is a popular means to
2764 install a Linux distribution on a machine which doesn't have a
2765 CD-ROM drive (a minimal system has to be transferred with floppies
2766 first). The kernels on both machines need to have this PLIP option
2767 enabled for this to work.
2768
2769 The PLIP driver has two modes, mode 0 and mode 1. The parallel
2770 ports (the connectors at the computers with 25 holes) are connected
2771 with "null printer" or "Turbo Laplink" cables which can transmit 4
2772 bits at a time (mode 0) or with special PLIP cables, to be used on
2773 bidirectional parallel ports only, which can transmit 8 bits at a
2774 time (mode 1); you can find the wiring of these cables in
2775 <file:Documentation/networking/PLIP.txt>. The cables can be up to
2776 15m long. Mode 0 works also if one of the machines runs DOS/Windows
2777 and has some PLIP software installed, e.g. the Crynwr PLIP packet
2778 driver (<http://oak.oakland.edu/simtel.net/msdos/pktdrvr-pre.html>)
2779 and winsock or NCSA's telnet.
2780
2781 If you want to use PLIP, say Y and read the PLIP mini-HOWTO as well
2782 as the NET-3-HOWTO, both available from
2783 <http://www.tldp.org/docs.html#howto>. Note that the PLIP

2796 PPP (Point to Point Protocol) is a newer and better SLIP. It serves
2797 the same purpose: sending Internet traffic over telephone (and other
2798 serial) lines. Ask your access provider if they support it, because
2799 otherwise you can't use it; most Internet access providers these
2800 days support PPP rather than SLIP.
2801
2802 To use PPP, you need an additional program called pppd as described
2803 in the PPP-HOWTO, available at
2804 <http://www.tldp.org/docs.html#howto>. Make sure that you have
2805 the version of pppd recommended in <file:Documentation/Changes>.
2806 The PPP option enlarges your kernel by about 16 KB.
2807
2808 There are actually two versions of PPP: the traditional PPP for
2809 asynchronous lines, such as regular analog phone lines, and
2810 synchronous PPP which can be used over digital ISDN lines for
2811 example. If you want to use PPP over phone lines or other
2812 asynchronous serial lines, you need to say Y (or M) here and also to
2813 the next option, "PPP support for async serial ports". For PPP over
2814 synchronous lines, you should say Y (or M) here and to "Support
2815 synchronous PPP", below.
2816
2817 If you said Y to "Version information on all symbols" above, then
2818 you cannot compile the PPP driver into the kernel; you can then only
2819 compile it as a module. To compile this driver as a module, choose M

2898 The PPP Deflate compression method ("PPP Deflate compression",

2959 other local Unix box or if you want to configure your Linux box as a

2961 Internet Protocol) is a protocol used to send Internet traffic over
2962 serial connections such as telephone lines or null modem cables;
2963 nowadays, the protocol PPP is more commonly used for this same
2964 purpose.
2965
2966 Normally, your access provider has to support SLIP in order for you
2967 to be able to use it, but there is now a SLIP emulator called SLiRP
2968 around (available from
2969 <ftp://ibiblio.org/pub/Linux/system/network/serial/>) which
2970 allows you to use SLIP over a regular dial up shell connection. If
