11 You can say N here if you don't intend to connect your Linux box to
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

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

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

1230 This is a Micro Channel Ethernet adapter. You need to set
1231 CONFIG_MCA to use this driver. It is both available as an in-kernel
1232 driver and as a module.
1233
1234 To compile this driver as a module, choose M here and read
1235 <file:Documentation/networking/net-modules.txt>. The only
1236 currently supported card is the IBM LAN Adapter/A for Ethernet. It
1237 will both support 16K and 32K memory windows, however a 32K window
1238 gives a better security against packet losses. Usage of multiple
1239 boards with this driver should be possible, but has not been tested
1240 up to now due to lack of hardware.

2670 PLIP (Parallel Line Internet Protocol) is used to create a
2671 reasonably fast mini network consisting of two (or, rarely, more)
2672 local machines. A PLIP link from a Linux box is a popular means to
2673 install a Linux distribution on a machine which doesn't have a
2674 CD-ROM drive (a minimal system has to be transferred with floppies
2675 first). The kernels on both machines need to have this PLIP option
2676 enabled for this to work.
2677
2678 The PLIP driver has two modes, mode 0 and mode 1. The parallel
2679 ports (the connectors at the computers with 25 holes) are connected
2680 with "null printer" or "Turbo Laplink" cables which can transmit 4
2681 bits at a time (mode 0) or with special PLIP cables, to be used on
2682 bidirectional parallel ports only, which can transmit 8 bits at a
2683 time (mode 1); you can find the wiring of these cables in
2684 <file:Documentation/networking/PLIP.txt>. The cables can be up to
2685 15m long. Mode 0 works also if one of the machines runs DOS/Windows
2686 and has some PLIP software installed, e.g. the Crynwr PLIP packet
2687 driver (<http://oak.oakland.edu/simtel.net/msdos/pktdrvr-pre.html>)

2856 Support for PPP-over-L2TP socket family. L2TP is a protocol
2857 used by ISPs and enterprises to tunnel PPP traffic over UDP
2858 tunnels. L2TP is replacing PPTP for VPN uses.
2859
2860 This kernel component handles only L2TP data packets: a
2861 userland daemon handles L2TP the control protocol (tunnel
2862 and session setup). One such daemon is OpenL2TP
2863 (http://openl2tp.sourceforge.net/).

Linus Torvalds1da177e2005-04-16 15:20:36 -07002867 ---help---
2868 Say Y if you intend to use SLIP or CSLIP (compressed SLIP) to
2869 connect to your Internet service provider or to connect to some
2870 other local Unix box or if you want to configure your Linux box as a
2871 Slip/CSlip server for other people to dial in. SLIP (Serial Line
2872 Internet Protocol) is a protocol used to send Internet traffic over
2873 serial connections such as telephone lines or null modem cables;
2874 nowadays, the protocol PPP is more commonly used for this same
2875 purpose.
2876
2877 Normally, your access provider has to support SLIP in order for you
2878 to be able to use it, but there is now a SLIP emulator called SLiRP
2879 around (available from
2880 <ftp://ibiblio.org/pub/Linux/system/network/serial/>) which
2881 allows you to use SLIP over a regular dial up shell connection. If
2882 you plan to use SLiRP, make sure to say Y to CSLIP, below. The
2883 NET-3-HOWTO, available from
2884 <http://www.tldp.org/docs.html#howto>, explains how to
2885 configure SLIP. Note that you don't need this option if you just
2886 want to run term (term is a program which gives you almost full
2887 Internet connectivity if you have a regular dial up shell account on
2888 some Internet connected Unix computer. Read
2889 <http://www.bart.nl/~patrickr/term-howto/Term-HOWTO.html>). SLIP
2890 support will enlarge your kernel by about 4 KB. If unsure, say N.

2892 To compile this driver as a module, choose M here and read
2893 <file:Documentation/networking/net-modules.txt>. The module will be
2894 called slip.

2901 This protocol is faster than SLIP because it uses compression on the
2902 TCP/IP headers (not on the data itself), but it has to be supported
2903 on both ends. Ask your access provider if you are not sure and
2904 answer Y, just in case. You will still be able to use plain SLIP. If
2905 you plan to use SLiRP, the SLIP emulator (available from
2906 <ftp://ibiblio.org/pub/Linux/system/network/serial/>) which
2907 allows you to use SLIP over a regular dial up shell connection, you
2908 definitely want to say Y here. The NET-3-HOWTO, available from
2909 <http://www.tldp.org/docs.html#howto>, explains how to configure
2910 CSLIP. This won't enlarge your kernel.

2930 Just occasionally you may need to run IP over hostile serial
2931 networks that don't pass all control characters or are only seven
2932 bit. Saying Y here adds an extra mode you can use with SLIP:
2933 "slip6". In this mode, SLIP will only send normal ASCII symbols over
2934 the serial device. Naturally, this has to be supported at the other
2935 end of the link as well. It's good enough, for example, to run IP
2936 over the async ports of a Camtec JNT Pad. If unsure, say N.

2955 The traffic shaper is a virtual network device that allows you to
2956 limit the rate of outgoing data flow over some other network device.
2957 The traffic that you want to slow down can then be routed through
2958 these virtual devices. See
