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

181 Ethernet (also called IEEE 802.3 or ISO 8802-2) is the most common
182 type of Local Area Network (LAN) in universities and companies.
183
184 Common varieties of Ethernet are: 10BASE-2 or Thinnet (10 Mbps over
185 coaxial cable, linking computers in a chain), 10BASE-T or twisted
186 pair (10 Mbps over twisted pair cable, linking computers to central
187 hubs), 10BASE-F (10 Mbps over optical fiber links, using hubs),
188 100BASE-TX (100 Mbps over two twisted pair cables, using hubs),
189 100BASE-T4 (100 Mbps over 4 standard voice-grade twisted pair
190 cables, using hubs), 100BASE-FX (100 Mbps over optical fiber links)
191 [the 100BASE varieties are also known as Fast Ethernet], and Gigabit
192 Ethernet (1 Gbps over optical fiber or short copper links).
193
194 If your Linux machine will be connected to an Ethernet and you have
195 an Ethernet network interface card (NIC) installed in your computer,
196 say Y here and read the Ethernet-HOWTO, available from
197 <http://www.tldp.org/docs.html#howto>. You will then also have
198 to say Y to the driver for your particular NIC.

2805 PLIP (Parallel Line Internet Protocol) is used to create a
2806 reasonably fast mini network consisting of two (or, rarely, more)
2807 local machines. A PLIP link from a Linux box is a popular means to
2808 install a Linux distribution on a machine which doesn't have a
2809 CD-ROM drive (a minimal system has to be transferred with floppies
2810 first). The kernels on both machines need to have this PLIP option
2811 enabled for this to work.
2812
2813 The PLIP driver has two modes, mode 0 and mode 1. The parallel
2814 ports (the connectors at the computers with 25 holes) are connected
2815 with "null printer" or "Turbo Laplink" cables which can transmit 4
2816 bits at a time (mode 0) or with special PLIP cables, to be used on
2817 bidirectional parallel ports only, which can transmit 8 bits at a
2818 time (mode 1); you can find the wiring of these cables in
2819 <file:Documentation/networking/PLIP.txt>. The cables can be up to
2820 15m long. Mode 0 works also if one of the machines runs DOS/Windows
2821 and has some PLIP software installed, e.g. the Crynwr PLIP packet

2990 used by ISPs and enterprises to tunnel PPP traffic over UDP
2991 tunnels. L2TP is replacing PPTP for VPN uses.

2993 This kernel component handles only L2TP data packets: a

2995 and session setup). One such daemon is OpenL2TP

3001 Say Y if you intend to use SLIP or CSLIP (compressed SLIP) to
3002 connect to your Internet service provider or to connect to some
3003 other local Unix box or if you want to configure your Linux box as a
3004 Slip/CSlip server for other people to dial in. SLIP (Serial Line
3005 Internet Protocol) is a protocol used to send Internet traffic over
3006 serial connections such as telephone lines or null modem cables;
3007 nowadays, the protocol PPP is more commonly used for this same
3008 purpose.
3009
3010 Normally, your access provider has to support SLIP in order for you
3011 to be able to use it, but there is now a SLIP emulator called SLiRP
3012 around (available from
3013 <ftp://ibiblio.org/pub/Linux/system/network/serial/>) which
3014 allows you to use SLIP over a regular dial up shell connection. If
3015 you plan to use SLiRP, make sure to say Y to CSLIP, below. The
3016 NET-3-HOWTO, available from
3017 <http://www.tldp.org/docs.html#howto>, explains how to
3018 configure SLIP. Note that you don't need this option if you just
3019 want to run term (term is a program which gives you almost full
3020 Internet connectivity if you have a regular dial up shell account on
3021 some Internet connected Unix computer. Read
3022 <http://www.bart.nl/~patrickr/term-howto/Term-HOWTO.html>). SLIP
3023 support will enlarge your kernel by about 4 KB. If unsure, say N.

3033 This protocol is faster than SLIP because it uses compression on the
3034 TCP/IP headers (not on the data itself), but it has to be supported
3035 on both ends. Ask your access provider if you are not sure and
3036 answer Y, just in case. You will still be able to use plain SLIP. If
3037 you plan to use SLiRP, the SLIP emulator (available from
3038 <ftp://ibiblio.org/pub/Linux/system/network/serial/>) which
3039 allows you to use SLIP over a regular dial up shell connection, you
3040 definitely want to say Y here. The NET-3-HOWTO, available from
3041 <http://www.tldp.org/docs.html#howto>, explains how to configure
3042 CSLIP. This won't enlarge your kernel.

3062 Just occasionally you may need to run IP over hostile serial
3063 networks that don't pass all control characters or are only seven
3064 bit. Saying Y here adds an extra mode you can use with SLIP:
3065 "slip6". In this mode, SLIP will only send normal ASCII symbols over
3066 the serial device. Naturally, this has to be supported at the other
3067 end of the link as well. It's good enough, for example, to run IP
3068 over the async ports of a Camtec JNT Pad. If unsure, say N.
