Per Lidenc11ac3f2006-01-16 16:32:18 +010011 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.

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. Patrakov39f5fb32007-03-16 18:28:43 +050021 as a module, say M here and read <file:Documentation/kbuild/modules.txt>.

32 unsure, just say N.

114 Only say Y here if you are having trouble with TIPC. It will
115 enable the display of detailed information about what is going on.
