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

189 Ethernet (also called IEEE 802.3 or ISO 8802-2) is the most common
190 type of Local Area Network (LAN) in universities and companies.
191
192 Common varieties of Ethernet are: 10BASE-2 or Thinnet (10 Mbps over
193 coaxial cable, linking computers in a chain), 10BASE-T or twisted
194 pair (10 Mbps over twisted pair cable, linking computers to central
195 hubs), 10BASE-F (10 Mbps over optical fiber links, using hubs),
196 100BASE-TX (100 Mbps over two twisted pair cables, using hubs),
197 100BASE-T4 (100 Mbps over 4 standard voice-grade twisted pair
198 cables, using hubs), 100BASE-FX (100 Mbps over optical fiber links)
199 [the 100BASE varieties are also known as Fast Ethernet], and Gigabit
200 Ethernet (1 Gbps over optical fiber or short copper links).
201
202 If your Linux machine will be connected to an Ethernet and you have
203 an Ethernet network interface card (NIC) installed in your computer,
204 say Y here and read the Ethernet-HOWTO, available from

809 Important: There have been many reports that, with some motherboards
810 mixing an SMC Ultra and an Adaptec AHA154x SCSI card (or compatible,
811 such as some BusLogic models) causes corruption problems with many

1223 This is a Micro Channel Ethernet adapter. You need to set
1224 CONFIG_MCA to use this driver. It is both available as an in-kernel
1225 driver and as a module.
1226
1227 To compile this driver as a module, choose M here and read
1228 <file:Documentation/networking/net-modules.txt>. The only
1229 currently supported card is the IBM LAN Adapter/A for Ethernet. It
1230 will both support 16K and 32K memory windows, however a 32K window
1231 gives a better security against packet losses. Usage of multiple
1232 boards with this driver should be possible, but has not been tested
1233 up to now due to lack of hardware.

2771 PLIP (Parallel Line Internet Protocol) is used to create a
2772 reasonably fast mini network consisting of two (or, rarely, more)
2773 local machines. A PLIP link from a Linux box is a popular means to
2774 install a Linux distribution on a machine which doesn't have a
2775 CD-ROM drive (a minimal system has to be transferred with floppies
2776 first). The kernels on both machines need to have this PLIP option
2777 enabled for this to work.
2778
2779 The PLIP driver has two modes, mode 0 and mode 1. The parallel
2780 ports (the connectors at the computers with 25 holes) are connected
2781 with "null printer" or "Turbo Laplink" cables which can transmit 4
2782 bits at a time (mode 0) or with special PLIP cables, to be used on
2783 bidirectional parallel ports only, which can transmit 8 bits at a
2784 time (mode 1); you can find the wiring of these cables in
2785 <file:Documentation/networking/PLIP.txt>. The cables can be up to
2786 15m long. Mode 0 works also if one of the machines runs DOS/Windows
2787 and has some PLIP software installed, e.g. the Crynwr PLIP packet
2788 driver (<http://oak.oakland.edu/simtel.net/msdos/pktdrvr-pre.html>)
2789 and winsock or NCSA's telnet.
2790
2791 If you want to use PLIP, say Y and read the PLIP mini-HOWTO as well
2792 as the NET-3-HOWTO, both available from
2793 <http://www.tldp.org/docs.html#howto>. Note that the PLIP
2794 protocol has been changed and this PLIP driver won't work together
2795 with the PLIP support in Linux versions 1.0.x. This option enlarges
2796 your kernel by about 8 KB.

2807 PPP (Point to Point Protocol) is a newer and better SLIP. It serves
2808 the same purpose: sending Internet traffic over telephone (and other
2809 serial) lines. Ask your access provider if they support it, because
2810 otherwise you can't use it; most Internet access providers these
2811 days support PPP rather than SLIP.
2812
2813 To use PPP, you need an additional program called pppd as described
2814 in the PPP-HOWTO, available at
2815 <http://www.tldp.org/docs.html#howto>. Make sure that you have
2816 the version of pppd recommended in <file:Documentation/Changes>.
2817 The PPP option enlarges your kernel by about 16 KB.
2818
2819 There are actually two versions of PPP: the traditional PPP for
2820 asynchronous lines, such as regular analog phone lines, and
2821 synchronous PPP which can be used over digital ISDN lines for
2822 example. If you want to use PPP over phone lines or other
2823 asynchronous serial lines, you need to say Y (or M) here and also to
2824 the next option, "PPP support for async serial ports". For PPP over
2825 synchronous lines, you should say Y (or M) here and to "Support
2826 synchronous PPP", below.
2827
2828 If you said Y to "Version information on all symbols" above, then
2829 you cannot compile the PPP driver into the kernel; you can then only
2830 compile it as a module. To compile this driver as a module, choose M

2841
2842 This has to be supported at the other end as well and you need a

2971 other local Unix box or if you want to configure your Linux box as a
2972 Slip/CSlip server for other people to dial in. SLIP (Serial Line
2973 Internet Protocol) is a protocol used to send Internet traffic over
2974 serial connections such as telephone lines or null modem cables;
2975 nowadays, the protocol PPP is more commonly used for this same
2976 purpose.
2977
2978 Normally, your access provider has to support SLIP in order for you
2979 to be able to use it, but there is now a SLIP emulator called SLiRP
2980 around (available from

2984 NET-3-HOWTO, available from
