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
18 AX.25/KISS for sending Internet traffic over amateur radio links.

178 Ethernet (also called IEEE 802.3 or ISO 8802-2) is the most common
179 type of Local Area Network (LAN) in universities and companies.
180
181 Common varieties of Ethernet are: 10BASE-2 or Thinnet (10 Mbps over
182 coaxial cable, linking computers in a chain), 10BASE-T or twisted
183 pair (10 Mbps over twisted pair cable, linking computers to central
184 hubs), 10BASE-F (10 Mbps over optical fiber links, using hubs),
185 100BASE-TX (100 Mbps over two twisted pair cables, using hubs),
186 100BASE-T4 (100 Mbps over 4 standard voice-grade twisted pair
187 cables, using hubs), 100BASE-FX (100 Mbps over optical fiber links)
188 [the 100BASE varieties are also known as Fast Ethernet], and Gigabit
189 Ethernet (1 Gbps over optical fiber or short copper links).
190

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

2653 PLIP (Parallel Line Internet Protocol) is used to create a
2654 reasonably fast mini network consisting of two (or, rarely, more)
2655 local machines. A PLIP link from a Linux box is a popular means to
2656 install a Linux distribution on a machine which doesn't have a
2657 CD-ROM drive (a minimal system has to be transferred with floppies
2658 first). The kernels on both machines need to have this PLIP option
2659 enabled for this to work.
2660
2661 The PLIP driver has two modes, mode 0 and mode 1. The parallel
2662 ports (the connectors at the computers with 25 holes) are connected
2663 with "null printer" or "Turbo Laplink" cables which can transmit 4
2664 bits at a time (mode 0) or with special PLIP cables, to be used on
2665 bidirectional parallel ports only, which can transmit 8 bits at a
2666 time (mode 1); you can find the wiring of these cables in
2667 <file:Documentation/networking/PLIP.txt>. The cables can be up to
2668 15m long. Mode 0 works also if one of the machines runs DOS/Windows
2669 and has some PLIP software installed, e.g. the Crynwr PLIP packet
