| Per Liden | c11ac3f | 2006-01-16 16:32:18 +0100 | [diff] [blame] | 11 | The Transparent Inter Process Communication (TIPC) protocol is |
| 12 | specially designed for intra cluster communication. This protocol |
| 13 | originates from Ericsson where it has been used in carrier grade |
| 14 | cluster applications for many years. |
| 15 | |
| 16 | For more information about TIPC, see http://tipc.sourceforge.net. |

| 18 | This protocol support is also available as a module ( = code which |
| 19 | can be inserted in and removed from the running kernel whenever you |
| 20 | want). The module will be called tipc. If you want to compile it |
| Alexander E. Patrakov | 39f5fb3 | 2007-03-16 18:28:43 +0500 | [diff] [blame^] | 21 | as a module, say M here and read <file:Documentation/kbuild/modules.txt>. |
