12 any other computer at all.

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

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

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

1438 To verify that your adapter is supported, find the board ID number

1440 in the format 123456-001 (six digits hyphen three digits).

2776 PLIP (Parallel Line Internet Protocol) is used to create a
2777 reasonably fast mini network consisting of two (or, rarely, more)
2778 local machines. A PLIP link from a Linux box is a popular means to
2779 install a Linux distribution on a machine which doesn't have a
2780 CD-ROM drive (a minimal system has to be transferred with floppies
2781 first). The kernels on both machines need to have this PLIP option
2782 enabled for this to work.
2783
2784 The PLIP driver has two modes, mode 0 and mode 1. The parallel
2785 ports (the connectors at the computers with 25 holes) are connected
2786 with "null printer" or "Turbo Laplink" cables which can transmit 4
2787 bits at a time (mode 0) or with special PLIP cables, to be used on
2788 bidirectional parallel ports only, which can transmit 8 bits at a
2789 time (mode 1); you can find the wiring of these cables in
2790 <file:Documentation/networking/PLIP.txt>. The cables can be up to
2791 15m long. Mode 0 works also if one of the machines runs DOS/Windows
2792 and has some PLIP software installed, e.g. the Crynwr PLIP packet
2793 driver (<http://oak.oakland.edu/simtel.net/msdos/pktdrvr-pre.html>)

2814 otherwise you can't use it; most Internet access providers these
2815 days support PPP rather than SLIP.

2972 Say Y if you intend to use SLIP or CSLIP (compressed SLIP) to
2973 connect to your Internet service provider or to connect to some
2974 other local Unix box or if you want to configure your Linux box as a
2975 Slip/CSlip server for other people to dial in. SLIP (Serial Line
2976 Internet Protocol) is a protocol used to send Internet traffic over
2977 serial connections such as telephone lines or null modem cables;
2978 nowadays, the protocol PPP is more commonly used for this same
2979 purpose.
2980
2981 Normally, your access provider has to support SLIP in order for you
2982 to be able to use it, but there is now a SLIP emulator called SLiRP
2983 around (available from
2984 <ftp://ibiblio.org/pub/Linux/system/network/serial/>) which
2985 allows you to use SLIP over a regular dial up shell connection. If
2986 you plan to use SLiRP, make sure to say Y to CSLIP, below. The
2987 NET-3-HOWTO, available from
2988 <http://www.tldp.org/docs.html#howto>, explains how to
2989 configure SLIP. Note that you don't need this option if you just
2990 want to run term (term is a program which gives you almost full
2991 Internet connectivity if you have a regular dial up shell account on
2992 some Internet connected Unix computer. Read
2993 <http://www.bart.nl/~patrickr/term-howto/Term-HOWTO.html>). SLIP
2994 support will enlarge your kernel by about 4 KB. If unsure, say N.

3004 This protocol is faster than SLIP because it uses compression on the

3006 on both ends. Ask your access provider if you are not sure and
3007 answer Y, just in case. You will still be able to use plain SLIP. If
3008 you plan to use SLiRP, the SLIP emulator (available from

3037 the serial device. Naturally, this has to be supported at the other
3038 end of the link as well. It's good enough, for example, to run IP
