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

2745 PLIP (Parallel Line Internet Protocol) is used to create a
2746 reasonably fast mini network consisting of two (or, rarely, more)
2747 local machines. A PLIP link from a Linux box is a popular means to
2748 install a Linux distribution on a machine which doesn't have a
2749 CD-ROM drive (a minimal system has to be transferred with floppies
2750 first). The kernels on both machines need to have this PLIP option
2751 enabled for this to work.
2752
2753 The PLIP driver has two modes, mode 0 and mode 1. The parallel
2754 ports (the connectors at the computers with 25 holes) are connected
2755 with "null printer" or "Turbo Laplink" cables which can transmit 4
2756 bits at a time (mode 0) or with special PLIP cables, to be used on
2757 bidirectional parallel ports only, which can transmit 8 bits at a
2758 time (mode 1); you can find the wiring of these cables in
2759 <file:Documentation/networking/PLIP.txt>. The cables can be up to
2760 15m long. Mode 0 works also if one of the machines runs DOS/Windows
2761 and has some PLIP software installed, e.g. the Crynwr PLIP packet
2762 driver (<http://oak.oakland.edu/simtel.net/msdos/pktdrvr-pre.html>)

2941 Say Y if you intend to use SLIP or CSLIP (compressed SLIP) to
2942 connect to your Internet service provider or to connect to some
2943 other local Unix box or if you want to configure your Linux box as a
2944 Slip/CSlip server for other people to dial in. SLIP (Serial Line
2945 Internet Protocol) is a protocol used to send Internet traffic over
2946 serial connections such as telephone lines or null modem cables;
2947 nowadays, the protocol PPP is more commonly used for this same
2948 purpose.
2949
2950 Normally, your access provider has to support SLIP in order for you
2951 to be able to use it, but there is now a SLIP emulator called SLiRP
2952 around (available from
2953 <ftp://ibiblio.org/pub/Linux/system/network/serial/>) which
2954 allows you to use SLIP over a regular dial up shell connection. If
2955 you plan to use SLiRP, make sure to say Y to CSLIP, below. The
2956 NET-3-HOWTO, available from
2957 <http://www.tldp.org/docs.html#howto>, explains how to
2958 configure SLIP. Note that you don't need this option if you just
2959 want to run term (term is a program which gives you almost full
2960 Internet connectivity if you have a regular dial up shell account on
2961 some Internet connected Unix computer. Read
2962 <http://www.bart.nl/~patrickr/term-howto/Term-HOWTO.html>). SLIP
2963 support will enlarge your kernel by about 4 KB. If unsure, say N.

2973 This protocol is faster than SLIP because it uses compression on the
2974 TCP/IP headers (not on the data itself), but it has to be supported
2975 on both ends. Ask your access provider if you are not sure and
2976 answer Y, just in case. You will still be able to use plain SLIP. If
2977 you plan to use SLiRP, the SLIP emulator (available from
2978 <ftp://ibiblio.org/pub/Linux/system/network/serial/>) which
2979 allows you to use SLIP over a regular dial up shell connection, you
2980 definitely want to say Y here. The NET-3-HOWTO, available from

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