11 You can say N here if you don't intend to connect your Linux box to
12 any other computer at all.
13
14 You'll have to say Y if your computer contains a network card that
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
18 AX.25/KISS for sending Internet traffic over amateur radio links.

32 ---help---
33 This is an intermediate driver that allows sharing of
34 resources.
35 To compile this driver as a module, choose M here: the module
36 will be called ifb. If you want to use more than one ifb
37 device at a time, you need to compile this driver as a module.
38 Instead of 'ifb', the devices will then be called 'ifb0',
39 'ifb1' etc.
40 Look at the iproute2 documentation directory for usage etc
41
42 config DUMMY
43 tristate "Dummy net driver support"
44 ---help---
45 This is essentially a bit-bucket device (i.e. traffic you send to
46 this device is consigned into oblivion) with a configurable IP
47 address. It is most commonly used in order to make your currently
48 inactive SLIP address seem like a real address for local programs.
49 If you use SLIP or PPP, you might want to say Y here. Since this
50 thing often comes in handy, the default is Y. It won't enlarge your
51 kernel either. What a deal. Read about it in the Network
52 Administrator's Guide, available from
53 <http://www.tldp.org/docs.html#guide>.
54
55 To compile this driver as a module, choose M here: the module
56 will be called dummy. If you want to use more than one dummy
57 device at a time, you need to compile this driver as a module.

66 Channels together. This is called 'Etherchannel' by Cisco,
67 'Trunking' by Sun, 802.3ad by the IEEE, and 'Bonding' in Linux.
68
69 The driver supports multiple bonding modes to allow for both high
70 performance and high availability operation.
71

82 This allows one to create virtual interfaces that map packets to
83 or from specific MAC addresses to a particular interface.
84
85 Macvlan devices can be added using the "ip" command from the
86 iproute2 package starting with the iproute2-2.6.23 release:
87

97 usually requires two modems and two telephone lines) and you use
98 SLIP (the protocol for sending Internet traffic over telephone
99 lines) or PPP (a better SLIP) on them, you can make them behave like
100 one double speed connection using this driver. Naturally, this has
101 to be supported at the other end as well, either with a similar EQL
102 Linux driver or with a Livingston Portmaster 2e.
103
104 Say Y if you want this and read
105 <file:Documentation/networking/eql.txt>. You may also want to read
106 section 6.2 of the NET-3-HOWTO, available from

116 TUN/TAP provides packet reception and transmission for user space
117 programs. It can be viewed as a simple Point-to-Point or Ethernet
118 device, which instead of receiving packets from a physical media,
119 receives them from user space program and instead of sending packets
120 via physical media writes them to the user space program.
121
122 When a program opens /dev/net/tun, driver creates and registers
123 corresponding net device tunX or tapX. After a program closed above
124 devices, driver will automatically delete tunXX or tapXX device and
125 all routes corresponding to it.
126
127 Please read <file:Documentation/networking/tuntap.txt> for more
128 information.
129

145 ---help---
146 This is a driver for the General Instrument (also known as
147 NextLevel) SURFboard 1000 internal
148 cable modem. This is an ISA card which is used by a number of cable
149 TV companies to provide cable modem access. It's a one-way
150 downstream-only cable modem, meaning that your upstream net link is
151 provided by your regular phone modem.
152
153 At present this driver only compiles as a module, so say M here if
154 you have this card. The module will be called sb1000. Then read
155 <file:Documentation/networking/README.sb1000> for information on how
156 to use this module, as it needs special ppp scripts for establishing
157 a connection. Further documentation and the necessary scripts can be

177 ---help---
178 Ethernet (also called IEEE 802.3 or ISO 8802-2) is the most common
179 type of Local Area Network (LAN) in universities and companies.
180
181 Common varieties of Ethernet are: 10BASE-2 or Thinnet (10 Mbps over
182 coaxial cable, linking computers in a chain), 10BASE-T or twisted
183 pair (10 Mbps over twisted pair cable, linking computers to central
184 hubs), 10BASE-F (10 Mbps over optical fiber links, using hubs),
185 100BASE-TX (100 Mbps over two twisted pair cables, using hubs),
186 100BASE-T4 (100 Mbps over 4 standard voice-grade twisted pair
187 cables, using hubs), 100BASE-FX (100 Mbps over optical fiber links)
188 [the 100BASE varieties are also known as Fast Ethernet], and Gigabit
189 Ethernet (1 Gbps over optical fiber or short copper links).
190
191 If your Linux machine will be connected to an Ethernet and you have
192 an Ethernet network interface card (NIC) installed in your computer,
193 say Y here and read the Ethernet-HOWTO, available from
194 <http://www.tldp.org/docs.html#howto>. You will then also have
195 to say Y to the driver for your particular NIC.
196
197 Note that the answer to this question won't directly affect the
198 kernel: saying N will just cause the configurator to skip all
199 the questions about Ethernet network cards. If unsure, say N.

2694 local machines. A PLIP link from a Linux box is a popular means to
2695 install a Linux distribution on a machine which doesn't have a
2696 CD-ROM drive (a minimal system has to be transferred with floppies
2697 first). The kernels on both machines need to have this PLIP option
2698 enabled for this to work.
2699
2700 The PLIP driver has two modes, mode 0 and mode 1. The parallel
2701 ports (the connectors at the computers with 25 holes) are connected
2702 with "null printer" or "Turbo Laplink" cables which can transmit 4
2703 bits at a time (mode 0) or with special PLIP cables, to be used on
2704 bidirectional parallel ports only, which can transmit 8 bits at a
2705 time (mode 1); you can find the wiring of these cables in
2706 <file:Documentation/networking/PLIP.txt>. The cables can be up to
2707 15m long. Mode 0 works also if one of the machines runs DOS/Windows
2708 and has some PLIP software installed, e.g. the Crynwr PLIP packet
2709 driver (<http://oak.oakland.edu/simtel.net/msdos/pktdrvr-pre.html>)
2710 and winsock or NCSA's telnet.
2711
2712 If you want to use PLIP, say Y and read the PLIP mini-HOWTO as well
2713 as the NET-3-HOWTO, both available from
2714 <http://www.tldp.org/docs.html#howto>. Note that the PLIP
2715 protocol has been changed and this PLIP driver won't work together
2716 with the PLIP support in Linux versions 1.0.x. This option enlarges
2717 your kernel by about 8 KB.
2718
2719 To compile this driver as a module, choose M here. The module
2720 will be called plip. If unsure, say Y or M, in case you buy
2721 a laptop later.

2723 config PPP
2724 tristate "PPP (point-to-point protocol) support"
2725 select SLHC
2726 ---help---
2727 PPP (Point to Point Protocol) is a newer and better SLIP. It serves
2728 the same purpose: sending Internet traffic over telephone (and other
2729 serial) lines. Ask your access provider if they support it, because
2730 otherwise you can't use it; most Internet access providers these
2731 days support PPP rather than SLIP.
2732
2733 To use PPP, you need an additional program called pppd as described
2734 in the PPP-HOWTO, available at
2735 <http://www.tldp.org/docs.html#howto>. Make sure that you have
2736 the version of pppd recommended in <file:Documentation/Changes>.
2737 The PPP option enlarges your kernel by about 16 KB.
2738
2739 There are actually two versions of PPP: the traditional PPP for
2740 asynchronous lines, such as regular analog phone lines, and
2741 synchronous PPP which can be used over digital ISDN lines for
2742 example. If you want to use PPP over phone lines or other
2743 asynchronous serial lines, you need to say Y (or M) here and also to
2744 the next option, "PPP support for async serial ports". For PPP over
2745 synchronous lines, you should say Y (or M) here and to "Support
2746 synchronous PPP", below.
2747
2748 If you said Y to "Version information on all symbols" above, then
2749 you cannot compile the PPP driver into the kernel; you can then only
2750 compile it as a module. To compile this driver as a module, choose M
2751 here. The module will be called ppp_generic.

2757 PPP multilink is a protocol (defined in RFC 1990) which allows you
2758 to combine several (logical or physical) lines into one logical PPP
2759 connection, so that you can utilize your full bandwidth.
2760
2761 This has to be supported at the other end as well and you need a
2762 version of the pppd daemon which understands the multilink protocol.

2771 PPP interfaces. This allows you to control which packets count as
2772 activity (i.e. which packets will reset the idle timer or bring up
2773 a demand-dialed link) and which packets are to be dropped entirely.
2774 You need to say Y here if you wish to use the pass-filter and
2775 active-filter options to pppd.

2811 each PPP packet before it is sent over the wire. The machine at the
2812 other end of the PPP link (usually your ISP) has to support the
2813 Deflate compression method as well for this to be useful. Even if
2814 they don't support it, it is safe to say Y here.

2822 Support for the BSD-Compress compression method for PPP, which uses
2823 the LZW compression method to compress each PPP packet before it is
2824 sent over the wire. The machine at the other end of the PPP link
2825 (usually your ISP) has to support the BSD-Compress compression
2826 method as well for this to be useful. Even if they don't support it,
2827 it is safe to say Y here.
2828
2829 The PPP Deflate compression method ("PPP Deflate compression",
2830 above) is preferable to BSD-Compress, because it compresses better
2831 and is patent-free.
2832
2833 Note that the BSD compression code will always be compiled as a
2834 module; it is called bsd_comp and will show up in the directory
2835 modules once you have said "make modules". If unsure, say N.

2888 Say Y if you intend to use SLIP or CSLIP (compressed SLIP) to
2889 connect to your Internet service provider or to connect to some
2890 other local Unix box or if you want to configure your Linux box as a
2891 Slip/CSlip server for other people to dial in. SLIP (Serial Line
2892 Internet Protocol) is a protocol used to send Internet traffic over
2893 serial connections such as telephone lines or null modem cables;
2894 nowadays, the protocol PPP is more commonly used for this same
2895 purpose.
2896
2897 Normally, your access provider has to support SLIP in order for you
2898 to be able to use it, but there is now a SLIP emulator called SLiRP
2899 around (available from
2900 <ftp://ibiblio.org/pub/Linux/system/network/serial/>) which
2901 allows you to use SLIP over a regular dial up shell connection. If
2902 you plan to use SLiRP, make sure to say Y to CSLIP, below. The
2903 NET-3-HOWTO, available from
2904 <http://www.tldp.org/docs.html#howto>, explains how to
2905 configure SLIP. Note that you don't need this option if you just

2907 Internet connectivity if you have a regular dial up shell account on
2908 some Internet connected Unix computer. Read
2909 <http://www.bart.nl/~patrickr/term-howto/Term-HOWTO.html>). SLIP

2920 This protocol is faster than SLIP because it uses compression on the
2921 TCP/IP headers (not on the data itself), but it has to be supported
2922 on both ends. Ask your access provider if you are not sure and
2923 answer Y, just in case. You will still be able to use plain SLIP. If
2924 you plan to use SLiRP, the SLIP emulator (available from
2925 <ftp://ibiblio.org/pub/Linux/system/network/serial/>) which
2926 allows you to use SLIP over a regular dial up shell connection, you
2927 definitely want to say Y here. The NET-3-HOWTO, available from

2949 Just occasionally you may need to run IP over hostile serial
2950 networks that don't pass all control characters or are only seven
2951 bit. Saying Y here adds an extra mode you can use with SLIP:
2952 "slip6". In this mode, SLIP will only send normal ASCII symbols over
2953 the serial device. Naturally, this has to be supported at the other
2954 end of the link as well. It's good enough, for example, to run IP
