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

101 SLIP (the protocol for sending Internet traffic over telephone
102 lines) or PPP (a better SLIP) on them, you can make them behave like
103 one double speed connection using this driver. Naturally, this has

122 receives them from user space program and instead of sending packets
123 via physical media writes them to the user space program.

125 When a program opens /dev/net/tun, driver creates and registers
126 corresponding net device tunX or tapX. After a program closed above
127 devices, driver will automatically delete tunXX or tapXX device and

142 This is a driver for the General Instrument (also known as
143 NextLevel) SURFboard 1000 internal
144 cable modem. This is an ISA card which is used by a number of cable
145 TV companies to provide cable modem access. It's a one-way
146 downstream-only cable modem, meaning that your upstream net link is
147 provided by your regular phone modem.
148
149 At present this driver only compiles as a module, so say M here if
150 you have this card. The module will be called sb1000. Then read
151 <file:Documentation/networking/README.sb1000> for information on how
152 to use this module, as it needs special ppp scripts for establishing

174 Ethernet (also called IEEE 802.3 or ISO 8802-2) is the most common
175 type of Local Area Network (LAN) in universities and companies.
176
177 Common varieties of Ethernet are: 10BASE-2 or Thinnet (10 Mbps over
178 coaxial cable, linking computers in a chain), 10BASE-T or twisted
179 pair (10 Mbps over twisted pair cable, linking computers to central
180 hubs), 10BASE-F (10 Mbps over optical fiber links, using hubs),
181 100BASE-TX (100 Mbps over two twisted pair cables, using hubs),
182 100BASE-T4 (100 Mbps over 4 standard voice-grade twisted pair
183 cables, using hubs), 100BASE-FX (100 Mbps over optical fiber links)
184 [the 100BASE varieties are also known as Fast Ethernet], and Gigabit
185 Ethernet (1 Gbps over optical fiber or short copper links).
186
187 If your Linux machine will be connected to an Ethernet and you have
188 an Ethernet network interface card (NIC) installed in your computer,
189 say Y here and read the Ethernet-HOWTO, available from
190 <http://www.tldp.org/docs.html#howto>. You will then also have
191 to say Y to the driver for your particular NIC.

193 Note that the answer to this question won't directly affect the
194 kernel: saying N will just cause the configurator to skip all
195 the questions about Ethernet network cards. If unsure, say N.

2772 PLIP (Parallel Line Internet Protocol) is used to create a
2773 reasonably fast mini network consisting of two (or, rarely, more)
2774 local machines. A PLIP link from a Linux box is a popular means to
2775 install a Linux distribution on a machine which doesn't have a
2776 CD-ROM drive (a minimal system has to be transferred with floppies
2777 first). The kernels on both machines need to have this PLIP option
2778 enabled for this to work.
2779
2780 The PLIP driver has two modes, mode 0 and mode 1. The parallel
2781 ports (the connectors at the computers with 25 holes) are connected
2782 with "null printer" or "Turbo Laplink" cables which can transmit 4
2783 bits at a time (mode 0) or with special PLIP cables, to be used on
2784 bidirectional parallel ports only, which can transmit 8 bits at a
2785 time (mode 1); you can find the wiring of these cables in
2786 <file:Documentation/networking/PLIP.txt>. The cables can be up to
2787 15m long. Mode 0 works also if one of the machines runs DOS/Windows
2788 and has some PLIP software installed, e.g. the Crynwr PLIP packet
2789 driver (<http://oak.oakland.edu/simtel.net/msdos/pktdrvr-pre.html>)

2808 PPP (Point to Point Protocol) is a newer and better SLIP. It serves

2811 otherwise you can't use it; most Internet access providers these
2812 days support PPP rather than SLIP.

2817 the version of pppd recommended in <file:Documentation/Changes>.

2911 The PPP Deflate compression method ("PPP Deflate compression",

2913 and is patent-free.

2970 Say Y if you intend to use SLIP or CSLIP (compressed SLIP) to
2971 connect to your Internet service provider or to connect to some
2972 other local Unix box or if you want to configure your Linux box as a
2973 Slip/CSlip server for other people to dial in. SLIP (Serial Line
2974 Internet Protocol) is a protocol used to send Internet traffic over
2975 serial connections such as telephone lines or null modem cables;
2976 nowadays, the protocol PPP is more commonly used for this same
2977 purpose.
2978
2979 Normally, your access provider has to support SLIP in order for you
2980 to be able to use it, but there is now a SLIP emulator called SLiRP
2981 around (available from
2982 <ftp://ibiblio.org/pub/Linux/system/network/serial/>) which
2983 allows you to use SLIP over a regular dial up shell connection. If
2984 you plan to use SLiRP, make sure to say Y to CSLIP, below. The
2985 NET-3-HOWTO, available from
2986 <http://www.tldp.org/docs.html#howto>, explains how to
2987 configure SLIP. Note that you don't need this option if you just
2988 want to run term (term is a program which gives you almost full
2989 Internet connectivity if you have a regular dial up shell account on
2990 some Internet connected Unix computer. Read
2991 <http://www.bart.nl/~patrickr/term-howto/Term-HOWTO.html>). SLIP
2992 support will enlarge your kernel by about 4 KB. If unsure, say N.

3003 This protocol is faster than SLIP because it uses compression on the

3005 on both ends. Ask your access provider if you are not sure and
3006 answer Y, just in case. You will still be able to use plain SLIP. If
3007 you plan to use SLiRP, the SLIP emulator (available from

3032 Just occasionally you may need to run IP over hostile serial
3033 networks that don't pass all control characters or are only seven
3034 bit. Saying Y here adds an extra mode you can use with SLIP:
3035 "slip6". In this mode, SLIP will only send normal ASCII symbols over
3036 the serial device. Naturally, this has to be supported at the other
3037 end of the link as well. It's good enough, for example, to run IP
