Per Lidenc11ac3f2006-01-16 16:32:18 +01009 The Transparent Inter Process Communication (TIPC) protocol is
10 specially designed for intra cluster communication. This protocol
11 originates from Ericsson where it has been used in carrier grade
12 cluster applications for many years.

16 This protocol support is also available as a module ( = code which
17 can be inserted in and removed from the running kernel whenever you
18 want). The module will be called tipc. If you want to compile it
Alexander E. Patrakov39f5fb32007-03-16 18:28:43 +050019 as a module, say M here and read <file:Documentation/kbuild/modules.txt>.

Allan Stephens0e659672010-12-31 18:59:32 +000041 Setting this to a smaller value saves some memory,
Allan Stephens7981d6f2010-01-19 14:23:57 -080042 setting it to higher allows for more ports.
