| 191 | [the 100BASE varieties are also known as Fast Ethernet], and Gigabit |
| 192 | Ethernet (1 Gbps over optical fiber or short copper links). |

| 2806 | PLIP (Parallel Line Internet Protocol) is used to create a |
| 2807 | reasonably fast mini network consisting of two (or, rarely, more) |
| 2808 | local machines. A PLIP link from a Linux box is a popular means to |
| 2809 | install a Linux distribution on a machine which doesn't have a |
| 2810 | CD-ROM drive (a minimal system has to be transferred with floppies |
| 2811 | first). The kernels on both machines need to have this PLIP option |
| 2812 | enabled for this to work. |
| 2813 | |
| 2814 | The PLIP driver has two modes, mode 0 and mode 1. The parallel |
| 2815 | ports (the connectors at the computers with 25 holes) are connected |
| 2816 | with "null printer" or "Turbo Laplink" cables which can transmit 4 |
| 2817 | bits at a time (mode 0) or with special PLIP cables, to be used on |
| 2818 | bidirectional parallel ports only, which can transmit 8 bits at a |
| 2819 | time (mode 1); you can find the wiring of these cables in |
| 2820 | <file:Documentation/networking/PLIP.txt>. The cables can be up to |
| 2821 | 15m long. Mode 0 works also if one of the machines runs DOS/Windows |
| 2822 | and has some PLIP software installed, e.g. the Crynwr PLIP packet |
| 2823 | driver (<http://oak.oakland.edu/simtel.net/msdos/pktdrvr-pre.html>) |

| 3002 | Say Y if you intend to use SLIP or CSLIP (compressed SLIP) to |
| 3003 | connect to your Internet service provider or to connect to some |
| 3004 | other local Unix box or if you want to configure your Linux box as a |
| 3005 | Slip/CSlip server for other people to dial in. SLIP (Serial Line |
| 3006 | Internet Protocol) is a protocol used to send Internet traffic over |
| 3007 | serial connections such as telephone lines or null modem cables; |
| 3008 | nowadays, the protocol PPP is more commonly used for this same |
| 3009 | purpose. |
| 3010 | |
| 3011 | Normally, your access provider has to support SLIP in order for you |
| 3012 | to be able to use it, but there is now a SLIP emulator called SLiRP |
| 3013 | around (available from |
| 3014 | <ftp://ibiblio.org/pub/Linux/system/network/serial/>) which |
| 3015 | allows you to use SLIP over a regular dial up shell connection. If |
| 3016 | you plan to use SLiRP, make sure to say Y to CSLIP, below. The |
| 3017 | NET-3-HOWTO, available from |
| 3018 | <http://www.tldp.org/docs.html#howto>, explains how to |
| 3019 | configure SLIP. Note that you don't need this option if you just |
| 3020 | want to run term (term is a program which gives you almost full |
| 3021 | Internet connectivity if you have a regular dial up shell account on |
| 3022 | some Internet connected Unix computer. Read |
| 3023 | <http://www.bart.nl/~patrickr/term-howto/Term-HOWTO.html>). SLIP |
| 3024 | support will enlarge your kernel by about 4 KB. If unsure, say N. |

| 3034 | This protocol is faster than SLIP because it uses compression on the |
| 3035 | TCP/IP headers (not on the data itself), but it has to be supported |
| 3036 | on both ends. Ask your access provider if you are not sure and |
| 3037 | answer Y, just in case. You will still be able to use plain SLIP. If |
| 3038 | you plan to use SLiRP, the SLIP emulator (available from |
| 3039 | <ftp://ibiblio.org/pub/Linux/system/network/serial/>) which |
| 3040 | allows you to use SLIP over a regular dial up shell connection, you |
| 3041 | definitely want to say Y here. The NET-3-HOWTO, available from |
| 3042 | <http://www.tldp.org/docs.html#howto>, explains how to configure |
| 3043 | CSLIP. This won't enlarge your kernel. |

| 3063 | Just occasionally you may need to run IP over hostile serial |
| 3064 | networks that don't pass all control characters or are only seven |
| 3065 | bit. Saying Y here adds an extra mode you can use with SLIP: |
| 3066 | "slip6". In this mode, SLIP will only send normal ASCII symbols over |
| 3067 | the serial device. Naturally, this has to be supported at the other |
| 3068 | end of the link as well. It's good enough, for example, to run IP |
| 3069 | over the async ports of a Camtec JNT Pad. If unsure, say N. |
