13 You can say N here if you don't intend to connect your Linux box to
14 any other computer at all.
15
16 You'll have to say Y if your computer contains a network card that
17 you want to use under Linux. If you are going to run SLIP or PPP over
18 telephone line or null modem cable you need say Y here. Connecting
19 two machines with parallel ports using PLIP needs this, as well as
20 AX.25/KISS for sending Internet traffic over amateur radio links.

161 coaxial cable, linking computers in a chain), 10BASE-T or twisted
162 pair (10 Mbps over twisted pair cable, linking computers to central
163 hubs), 10BASE-F (10 Mbps over optical fiber links, using hubs),

166 cables, using hubs), 100BASE-FX (100 Mbps over optical fiber links)

2570 PLIP (Parallel Line Internet Protocol) is used to create a
2571 reasonably fast mini network consisting of two (or, rarely, more)
2572 local machines. A PLIP link from a Linux box is a popular means to
2573 install a Linux distribution on a machine which doesn't have a
2574 CD-ROM drive (a minimal system has to be transferred with floppies
2575 first). The kernels on both machines need to have this PLIP option
2576 enabled for this to work.
2577
2578 The PLIP driver has two modes, mode 0 and mode 1. The parallel
2579 ports (the connectors at the computers with 25 holes) are connected
2580 with "null printer" or "Turbo Laplink" cables which can transmit 4
2581 bits at a time (mode 0) or with special PLIP cables, to be used on
2582 bidirectional parallel ports only, which can transmit 8 bits at a
2583 time (mode 1); you can find the wiring of these cables in
2584 <file:Documentation/networking/PLIP.txt>. The cables can be up to
2585 15m long. Mode 0 works also if one of the machines runs DOS/Windows
2586 and has some PLIP software installed, e.g. the Crynwr PLIP packet
2587 driver (<http://oak.oakland.edu/simtel.net/msdos/pktdrvr-pre.html>)
2588 and winsock or NCSA's telnet.

2591 as the NET-3-HOWTO, both available from
2592 <http://www.tldp.org/docs.html#howto>. Note that the PLIP
2593 protocol has been changed and this PLIP driver won't work together
2594 with the PLIP support in Linux versions 1.0.x. This option enlarges
2595 your kernel by about 8 KB.

2597 To compile this driver as a module, choose M here and read

2606 PPP (Point to Point Protocol) is a newer and better SLIP. It serves
2607 the same purpose: sending Internet traffic over telephone (and other
2608 serial) lines. Ask your access provider if they support it, because
2609 otherwise you can't use it; most Internet access providers these
2610 days support PPP rather than SLIP.
2611
2612 To use PPP, you need an additional program called pppd as described
2613 in the PPP-HOWTO, available at
2614 <http://www.tldp.org/docs.html#howto>. Make sure that you have
2615 the version of pppd recommended in <file:Documentation/Changes>.
2616 The PPP option enlarges your kernel by about 16 KB.

2618 There are actually two versions of PPP: the traditional PPP for
2619 asynchronous lines, such as regular analog phone lines, and

2621 example. If you want to use PPP over phone lines or other
2622 asynchronous serial lines, you need to say Y (or M) here and also to

2702 Support for the BSD-Compress compression method for PPP, which uses
2703 the LZW compression method to compress each PPP packet before it is
2704 sent over the wire. The machine at the other end of the PPP link
2705 (usually your ISP) has to support the BSD-Compress compression
2706 method as well for this to be useful. Even if they don't support it,
2707 it is safe to say Y here.
2708
2709 The PPP Deflate compression method ("PPP Deflate compression",
2710 above) is preferable to BSD-Compress, because it compresses better
2711 and is patent-free.
2712
2713 Note that the BSD compression code will always be compiled as a
2714 module; it is called bsd_comp and will show up in the directory
2715 modules once you have said "make modules". If unsure, say N.

Linus Torvalds1da177e2005-04-16 15:20:36 -07002753 ---help---
2754 Say Y if you intend to use SLIP or CSLIP (compressed SLIP) to
2755 connect to your Internet service provider or to connect to some
2756 other local Unix box or if you want to configure your Linux box as a
2757 Slip/CSlip server for other people to dial in. SLIP (Serial Line
2758 Internet Protocol) is a protocol used to send Internet traffic over
2759 serial connections such as telephone lines or null modem cables;
2760 nowadays, the protocol PPP is more commonly used for this same
2761 purpose.
2762
2763 Normally, your access provider has to support SLIP in order for you
2764 to be able to use it, but there is now a SLIP emulator called SLiRP
2765 around (available from
2766 <ftp://ibiblio.org/pub/Linux/system/network/serial/>) which
2767 allows you to use SLIP over a regular dial up shell connection. If
2768 you plan to use SLiRP, make sure to say Y to CSLIP, below. The
2769 NET-3-HOWTO, available from
2770 <http://www.tldp.org/docs.html#howto>, explains how to
2771 configure SLIP. Note that you don't need this option if you just
2772 want to run term (term is a program which gives you almost full
2773 Internet connectivity if you have a regular dial up shell account on
2774 some Internet connected Unix computer. Read
2775 <http://www.bart.nl/~patrickr/term-howto/Term-HOWTO.html>). SLIP
2776 support will enlarge your kernel by about 4 KB. If unsure, say N.

2779 <file:Documentation/networking/net-modules.txt>. The module will be
2780 called slip.

2787 This protocol is faster than SLIP because it uses compression on the
2788 TCP/IP headers (not on the data itself), but it has to be supported
2789 on both ends. Ask your access provider if you are not sure and
2790 answer Y, just in case. You will still be able to use plain SLIP. If
2791 you plan to use SLiRP, the SLIP emulator (available from
2792 <ftp://ibiblio.org/pub/Linux/system/network/serial/>) which
2793 allows you to use SLIP over a regular dial up shell connection, you
2794 definitely want to say Y here. The NET-3-HOWTO, available from

2816 Just occasionally you may need to run IP over hostile serial
2817 networks that don't pass all control characters or are only seven
2818 bit. Saying Y here adds an extra mode you can use with SLIP:
2819 "slip6". In this mode, SLIP will only send normal ASCII symbols over
2820 the serial device. Naturally, this has to be supported at the other
2821 end of the link as well. It's good enough, for example, to run IP
2822 over the async ports of a Camtec JNT Pad. If unsure, say N.
