12 any other computer at all.

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

2788 PLIP (Parallel Line Internet Protocol) is used to create a
2789 reasonably fast mini network consisting of two (or, rarely, more)
2790 local machines. A PLIP link from a Linux box is a popular means to
2791 install a Linux distribution on a machine which doesn't have a
2792 CD-ROM drive (a minimal system has to be transferred with floppies
2793 first). The kernels on both machines need to have this PLIP option
2794 enabled for this to work.
2795
2796 The PLIP driver has two modes, mode 0 and mode 1. The parallel
2797 ports (the connectors at the computers with 25 holes) are connected
2798 with "null printer" or "Turbo Laplink" cables which can transmit 4
2799 bits at a time (mode 0) or with special PLIP cables, to be used on
2800 bidirectional parallel ports only, which can transmit 8 bits at a
2801 time (mode 1); you can find the wiring of these cables in
2802 <file:Documentation/networking/PLIP.txt>. The cables can be up to
2803 15m long. Mode 0 works also if one of the machines runs DOS/Windows
2804 and has some PLIP software installed, e.g. the Crynwr PLIP packet
2805 driver (<http://oak.oakland.edu/simtel.net/msdos/pktdrvr-pre.html>)

2823 PPP (Point to Point Protocol) is a newer and better SLIP. It serves
2824 the same purpose: sending Internet traffic over telephone (and other
2825 serial) lines. Ask your access provider if they support it, because
2826 otherwise you can't use it; most Internet access providers these
2827 days support PPP rather than SLIP.
2828

2984 Say Y if you intend to use SLIP or CSLIP (compressed SLIP) to
2985 connect to your Internet service provider or to connect to some
2986 other local Unix box or if you want to configure your Linux box as a
2987 Slip/CSlip server for other people to dial in. SLIP (Serial Line
2988 Internet Protocol) is a protocol used to send Internet traffic over
2989 serial connections such as telephone lines or null modem cables;
2990 nowadays, the protocol PPP is more commonly used for this same
2991 purpose.
2992
2993 Normally, your access provider has to support SLIP in order for you
2994 to be able to use it, but there is now a SLIP emulator called SLiRP
2995 around (available from
2996 <ftp://ibiblio.org/pub/Linux/system/network/serial/>) which
2997 allows you to use SLIP over a regular dial up shell connection. If
2998 you plan to use SLiRP, make sure to say Y to CSLIP, below. The
2999 NET-3-HOWTO, available from
3000 <http://www.tldp.org/docs.html#howto>, explains how to
3001 configure SLIP. Note that you don't need this option if you just
3002 want to run term (term is a program which gives you almost full
3003 Internet connectivity if you have a regular dial up shell account on
3004 some Internet connected Unix computer. Read
3005 <http://www.bart.nl/~patrickr/term-howto/Term-HOWTO.html>). SLIP
3006 support will enlarge your kernel by about 4 KB. If unsure, say N.

3049 the serial device. Naturally, this has to be supported at the other
