15 you want to use under Linux. If you are going to run SLIP or PPP over

17 two machines with parallel ports using PLIP needs this, as well as

180 Ethernet (also called IEEE 802.3 or ISO 8802-2) is the most common
181 type of Local Area Network (LAN) in universities and companies.
182
183 Common varieties of Ethernet are: 10BASE-2 or Thinnet (10 Mbps over
184 coaxial cable, linking computers in a chain), 10BASE-T or twisted
185 pair (10 Mbps over twisted pair cable, linking computers to central
186 hubs), 10BASE-F (10 Mbps over optical fiber links, using hubs),
187 100BASE-TX (100 Mbps over two twisted pair cables, using hubs),
188 100BASE-T4 (100 Mbps over 4 standard voice-grade twisted pair
189 cables, using hubs), 100BASE-FX (100 Mbps over optical fiber links)
190 [the 100BASE varieties are also known as Fast Ethernet], and Gigabit
191 Ethernet (1 Gbps over optical fiber or short copper links).
192
193 If your Linux machine will be connected to an Ethernet and you have
194 an Ethernet network interface card (NIC) installed in your computer,
195 say Y here and read the Ethernet-HOWTO, available from

1236 This is a Micro Channel Ethernet adapter. You need to set

1243 will both support 16K and 32K memory windows, however a 32K window
1244 gives a better security against packet losses. Usage of multiple

2778 PLIP (Parallel Line Internet Protocol) is used to create a
2779 reasonably fast mini network consisting of two (or, rarely, more)
2780 local machines. A PLIP link from a Linux box is a popular means to
2781 install a Linux distribution on a machine which doesn't have a
2782 CD-ROM drive (a minimal system has to be transferred with floppies
2783 first). The kernels on both machines need to have this PLIP option
2784 enabled for this to work.
2785
2786 The PLIP driver has two modes, mode 0 and mode 1. The parallel
2787 ports (the connectors at the computers with 25 holes) are connected
2788 with "null printer" or "Turbo Laplink" cables which can transmit 4
2789 bits at a time (mode 0) or with special PLIP cables, to be used on
2790 bidirectional parallel ports only, which can transmit 8 bits at a
2791 time (mode 1); you can find the wiring of these cables in
2792 <file:Documentation/networking/PLIP.txt>. The cables can be up to
2793 15m long. Mode 0 works also if one of the machines runs DOS/Windows
2794 and has some PLIP software installed, e.g. the Crynwr PLIP packet
2795 driver (<http://oak.oakland.edu/simtel.net/msdos/pktdrvr-pre.html>)
2796 and winsock or NCSA's telnet.
2797
2798 If you want to use PLIP, say Y and read the PLIP mini-HOWTO as well
2799 as the NET-3-HOWTO, both available from
2800 <http://www.tldp.org/docs.html#howto>. Note that the PLIP
2801 protocol has been changed and this PLIP driver won't work together
2802 with the PLIP support in Linux versions 1.0.x. This option enlarges
2803 your kernel by about 8 KB.
2804
2805 To compile this driver as a module, choose M here and read

2817 otherwise you can't use it; most Internet access providers these
2818 days support PPP rather than SLIP.
2819
2820 To use PPP, you need an additional program called pppd as described
2821 in the PPP-HOWTO, available at
2822 <http://www.tldp.org/docs.html#howto>. Make sure that you have
2823 the version of pppd recommended in <file:Documentation/Changes>.
2824 The PPP option enlarges your kernel by about 16 KB.
2825
2826 There are actually two versions of PPP: the traditional PPP for
2827 asynchronous lines, such as regular analog phone lines, and
2828 synchronous PPP which can be used over digital ISDN lines for
2829 example. If you want to use PPP over phone lines or other
2830 asynchronous serial lines, you need to say Y (or M) here and also to
2831 the next option, "PPP support for async serial ports". For PPP over
2832 synchronous lines, you should say Y (or M) here and to "Support
2833 synchronous PPP", below.
2834
2835 If you said Y to "Version information on all symbols" above, then
2836 you cannot compile the PPP driver into the kernel; you can then only
2837 compile it as a module. To compile this driver as a module, choose M
2838 here and read <file:Documentation/networking/net-modules.txt>.
2839 The module will be called ppp_generic.

2845 PPP multilink is a protocol (defined in RFC 1990) which allows you
2846 to combine several (logical or physical) lines into one logical PPP
2847 connection, so that you can utilize your full bandwidth.
2848
2849 This has to be supported at the other end as well and you need a

2916
2917 The PPP Deflate compression method ("PPP Deflate compression",

2919 and is patent-free.

2976 Say Y if you intend to use SLIP or CSLIP (compressed SLIP) to
2977 connect to your Internet service provider or to connect to some
2978 other local Unix box or if you want to configure your Linux box as a
2979 Slip/CSlip server for other people to dial in. SLIP (Serial Line
2980 Internet Protocol) is a protocol used to send Internet traffic over
2981 serial connections such as telephone lines or null modem cables;
2982 nowadays, the protocol PPP is more commonly used for this same
2983 purpose.
2984
2985 Normally, your access provider has to support SLIP in order for you
2986 to be able to use it, but there is now a SLIP emulator called SLiRP
2987 around (available from
2988 <ftp://ibiblio.org/pub/Linux/system/network/serial/>) which
2989 allows you to use SLIP over a regular dial up shell connection. If
2990 you plan to use SLiRP, make sure to say Y to CSLIP, below. The
2991 NET-3-HOWTO, available from
2992 <http://www.tldp.org/docs.html#howto>, explains how to
2993 configure SLIP. Note that you don't need this option if you just

2995 Internet connectivity if you have a regular dial up shell account on
2996 some Internet connected Unix computer. Read
