12 any other computer at all.

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

191 Ethernet (also called IEEE 802.3 or ISO 8802-2) is the most common
192 type of Local Area Network (LAN) in universities and companies.
193
194 Common varieties of Ethernet are: 10BASE-2 or Thinnet (10 Mbps over
195 coaxial cable, linking computers in a chain), 10BASE-T or twisted
196 pair (10 Mbps over twisted pair cable, linking computers to central
197 hubs), 10BASE-F (10 Mbps over optical fiber links, using hubs),
198 100BASE-TX (100 Mbps over two twisted pair cables, using hubs),
199 100BASE-T4 (100 Mbps over 4 standard voice-grade twisted pair
200 cables, using hubs), 100BASE-FX (100 Mbps over optical fiber links)
201 [the 100BASE varieties are also known as Fast Ethernet], and Gigabit
202 Ethernet (1 Gbps over optical fiber or short copper links).
203

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

2746 PLIP (Parallel Line Internet Protocol) is used to create a
2747 reasonably fast mini network consisting of two (or, rarely, more)
2748 local machines. A PLIP link from a Linux box is a popular means to
2749 install a Linux distribution on a machine which doesn't have a
2750 CD-ROM drive (a minimal system has to be transferred with floppies
2751 first). The kernels on both machines need to have this PLIP option
2752 enabled for this to work.
2753
2754 The PLIP driver has two modes, mode 0 and mode 1. The parallel
2755 ports (the connectors at the computers with 25 holes) are connected
2756 with "null printer" or "Turbo Laplink" cables which can transmit 4
2757 bits at a time (mode 0) or with special PLIP cables, to be used on
2758 bidirectional parallel ports only, which can transmit 8 bits at a
2759 time (mode 1); you can find the wiring of these cables in
2760 <file:Documentation/networking/PLIP.txt>. The cables can be up to
2761 15m long. Mode 0 works also if one of the machines runs DOS/Windows
2762 and has some PLIP software installed, e.g. the Crynwr PLIP packet

2974 This protocol is faster than SLIP because it uses compression on the
2975 TCP/IP headers (not on the data itself), but it has to be supported
2976 on both ends. Ask your access provider if you are not sure and
2977 answer Y, just in case. You will still be able to use plain SLIP. If
2978 you plan to use SLiRP, the SLIP emulator (available from
2979 <ftp://ibiblio.org/pub/Linux/system/network/serial/>) which
2980 allows you to use SLIP over a regular dial up shell connection, you
2981 definitely want to say Y here. The NET-3-HOWTO, available from
2982 <http://www.tldp.org/docs.html#howto>, explains how to configure
2983 CSLIP. This won't enlarge your kernel.

3002 help
3003 Just occasionally you may need to run IP over hostile serial
3004 networks that don't pass all control characters or are only seven
3005 bit. Saying Y here adds an extra mode you can use with SLIP:
3006 "slip6". In this mode, SLIP will only send normal ASCII symbols over
3007 the serial device. Naturally, this has to be supported at the other
3008 end of the link as well. It's good enough, for example, to run IP
3009 over the async ports of a Camtec JNT Pad. If unsure, say N.

3015 Fibre Channel is a high speed serial protocol mainly used to connect
3016 large storage devices to the computer; it is compatible with and
3017 intended to replace SCSI.
3018
3019 If you intend to use Fibre Channel, you need to have a Fibre channel
3020 adaptor card in your computer; say Y here and to the driver for your
3021 adaptor below. You also should have said Y to "SCSI support" and
3022 "SCSI generic support".

3028 The traffic shaper is a virtual network device that allows you to
3029 limit the rate of outgoing data flow over some other network device.
3030 The traffic that you want to slow down can then be routed through
3031 these virtual devices. See
3032 <file:Documentation/networking/shaper.txt> for more information.
3033
Jiri Slaby3b6a7922006-11-06 14:34:48 -08003034 An alternative to this traffic shaper are traffic schedulers which
3035 you'll get if you say Y to "QoS and/or fair queuing" in
3036 "Networking options".
