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.

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

121 via physical media writes them to the user space program.

124 corresponding net device tunX or tapX. After a program closed above
125 devices, driver will automatically delete tunXX or tapXX device and

147 This is a driver for the General Instrument (also known as

150 TV companies to provide cable modem access. It's a one-way
151 downstream-only cable modem, meaning that your upstream net link is
152 provided by your regular phone modem.

155 you have this card. The module will be called sb1000. Then read
156 <file:Documentation/networking/README.sb1000> for information on how
157 to use this module, as it needs special ppp scripts for establishing

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

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

2807 ---help---
2808 PPP (Point to Point Protocol) is a newer and better SLIP. It serves
2809 the same purpose: sending Internet traffic over telephone (and other
2810 serial) lines. Ask your access provider if they support it, because
2811 otherwise you can't use it; most Internet access providers these
2812 days support PPP rather than SLIP.
2813
2814 To use PPP, you need an additional program called pppd as described
2815 in the PPP-HOWTO, available at
2816 <http://www.tldp.org/docs.html#howto>. Make sure that you have
2817 the version of pppd recommended in <file:Documentation/Changes>.
2818 The PPP option enlarges your kernel by about 16 KB.
2819
2820 There are actually two versions of PPP: the traditional PPP for
2821 asynchronous lines, such as regular analog phone lines, and
2822 synchronous PPP which can be used over digital ISDN lines for
2823 example. If you want to use PPP over phone lines or other
2824 asynchronous serial lines, you need to say Y (or M) here and also to
2825 the next option, "PPP support for async serial ports". For PPP over
2826 synchronous lines, you should say Y (or M) here and to "Support
2827 synchronous PPP", below.
2828
2829 If you said Y to "Version information on all symbols" above, then
2830 you cannot compile the PPP driver into the kernel; you can then only
2831 compile it as a module. To compile this driver as a module, choose M

2975 nowadays, the protocol PPP is more commonly used for this same
