11 any other computer at all.

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.

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

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

2979 PLIP (Parallel Line Internet Protocol) is used to create a

2981 local machines. A PLIP link from a Linux box is a popular means to
2982 install a Linux distribution on a machine which doesn't have a
2983 CD-ROM drive (a minimal system has to be transferred with floppies
2984 first). The kernels on both machines need to have this PLIP option
2985 enabled for this to work.
2986
2987 The PLIP driver has two modes, mode 0 and mode 1. The parallel
2988 ports (the connectors at the computers with 25 holes) are connected
2989 with "null printer" or "Turbo Laplink" cables which can transmit 4
2990 bits at a time (mode 0) or with special PLIP cables, to be used on
2991 bidirectional parallel ports only, which can transmit 8 bits at a
2992 time (mode 1); you can find the wiring of these cables in
2993 <file:Documentation/networking/PLIP.txt>. The cables can be up to
2994 15m long. Mode 0 works also if one of the machines runs DOS/Windows
2995 and has some PLIP software installed, e.g. the Crynwr PLIP packet

3017 otherwise you can't use it; most Internet access providers these
3018 days support PPP rather than SLIP.

3237 networks that don't pass all control characters or are only seven
3238 bit. Saying Y here adds an extra mode you can use with SLIP:
3239 "slip6". In this mode, SLIP will only send normal ASCII symbols over
3240 the serial device. Naturally, this has to be supported at the other
3241 end of the link as well. It's good enough, for example, to run IP
3242 over the async ports of a Camtec JNT Pad. If unsure, say N.

3248 Fibre Channel is a high speed serial protocol mainly used to connect
3249 large storage devices to the computer; it is compatible with and
3250 intended to replace SCSI.
3251
3252 If you intend to use Fibre Channel, you need to have a Fibre channel
3253 adaptor card in your computer; say Y here and to the driver for your
3254 adaptor below. You also should have said Y to "SCSI support" and
3255 "SCSI generic support".
