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

186 Ethernet (also called IEEE 802.3 or ISO 8802-2) is the most common
187 type of Local Area Network (LAN) in universities and companies.

189 Common varieties of Ethernet are: 10BASE-2 or Thinnet (10 Mbps over
190 coaxial cable, linking computers in a chain), 10BASE-T or twisted
191 pair (10 Mbps over twisted pair cable, linking computers to central
192 hubs), 10BASE-F (10 Mbps over optical fiber links, using hubs),
193 100BASE-TX (100 Mbps over two twisted pair cables, using hubs),
194 100BASE-T4 (100 Mbps over 4 standard voice-grade twisted pair
195 cables, using hubs), 100BASE-FX (100 Mbps over optical fiber links)
196 [the 100BASE varieties are also known as Fast Ethernet], and Gigabit
197 Ethernet (1 Gbps over optical fiber or short copper links).

2748 PLIP (Parallel Line Internet Protocol) is used to create a
2749 reasonably fast mini network consisting of two (or, rarely, more)
2750 local machines. A PLIP link from a Linux box is a popular means to
2751 install a Linux distribution on a machine which doesn't have a
2752 CD-ROM drive (a minimal system has to be transferred with floppies
2753 first). The kernels on both machines need to have this PLIP option
2754 enabled for this to work.
2755
2756 The PLIP driver has two modes, mode 0 and mode 1. The parallel
2757 ports (the connectors at the computers with 25 holes) are connected
2758 with "null printer" or "Turbo Laplink" cables which can transmit 4
2759 bits at a time (mode 0) or with special PLIP cables, to be used on
2760 bidirectional parallel ports only, which can transmit 8 bits at a
2761 time (mode 1); you can find the wiring of these cables in
2762 <file:Documentation/networking/PLIP.txt>. The cables can be up to
2763 15m long. Mode 0 works also if one of the machines runs DOS/Windows
2764 and has some PLIP software installed, e.g. the Crynwr PLIP packet

2976 This protocol is faster than SLIP because it uses compression on the
2977 TCP/IP headers (not on the data itself), but it has to be supported
2978 on both ends. Ask your access provider if you are not sure and
2979 answer Y, just in case. You will still be able to use plain SLIP. If
2980 you plan to use SLiRP, the SLIP emulator (available from
2981 <ftp://ibiblio.org/pub/Linux/system/network/serial/>) which
2982 allows you to use SLIP over a regular dial up shell connection, you
2983 definitely want to say Y here. The NET-3-HOWTO, available from
2984 <http://www.tldp.org/docs.html#howto>, explains how to configure
2985 CSLIP. This won't enlarge your kernel.

3004 help
3005 Just occasionally you may need to run IP over hostile serial
3006 networks that don't pass all control characters or are only seven
3007 bit. Saying Y here adds an extra mode you can use with SLIP:
3008 "slip6". In this mode, SLIP will only send normal ASCII symbols over
3009 the serial device. Naturally, this has to be supported at the other
3010 end of the link as well. It's good enough, for example, to run IP
3011 over the async ports of a Camtec JNT Pad. If unsure, say N.

3017 Fibre Channel is a high speed serial protocol mainly used to connect
3018 large storage devices to the computer; it is compatible with and
3019 intended to replace SCSI.
3020
3021 If you intend to use Fibre Channel, you need to have a Fibre channel
3022 adaptor card in your computer; say Y here and to the driver for your
3023 adaptor below. You also should have said Y to "SCSI support" and
3024 "SCSI generic support".
