95config USB_USBNET
96 tristate "Multi-purpose USB Networking Framework"
97 ---help---
98 This driver supports several kinds of network links over USB,
99 with "minidrivers" built around a common network driver core
100 that supports deep queues for efficient transfers. (This gives
101 better performance with small packets and at high speeds).
102
103 The USB host runs "usbnet", and the other end of the link might be:
104
105 - Another USB host, when using USB "network" or "data transfer"
106 cables. These are often used to network laptops to PCs, like
107 "Laplink" parallel cables or some motherboards. These rely
108 on specialized chips from many suppliers.
109
110 - An intelligent USB gadget, perhaps embedding a Linux system.
111 These include PDAs running Linux (iPaq, Yopy, Zaurus, and
112 others), and devices that interoperate using the standard
113 CDC-Ethernet specification (including many cable modems).
114
115 - Network adapter hardware (like those for 10/100 Ethernet) which
116 uses this driver framework.
117
118 The link will appear with a name like "usb0", when the link is
119 a two-node link, or "eth0" for most CDC-Ethernet devices. Those
120 two-node links are most easily managed with Ethernet Bridging
121 (CONFIG_BRIDGE) instead of routing.
