12 any other computer at all.

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

57 If you use SLIP or PPP, you might want to say Y here. Since this
58 thing often comes in handy, the default is Y. It won't enlarge your

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

194 Common varieties of Ethernet are: 10BASE-2 or Thinnet (10 Mbps over
195 coaxial cable, linking computers in a chain), 10BASE-T or twisted
196 pair (10 Mbps over twisted pair cable, linking computers to central
197 hubs), 10BASE-F (10 Mbps over optical fiber links, using hubs),
198 100BASE-TX (100 Mbps over two twisted pair cables, using hubs),
199 100BASE-T4 (100 Mbps over 4 standard voice-grade twisted pair
200 cables, using hubs), 100BASE-FX (100 Mbps over optical fiber links)
201 [the 100BASE varieties are also known as Fast Ethernet], and Gigabit
202 Ethernet (1 Gbps over optical fiber or short copper links).

2746 PLIP (Parallel Line Internet Protocol) is used to create a

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

2781 PPP (Point to Point Protocol) is a newer and better SLIP. It serves
2782 the same purpose: sending Internet traffic over telephone (and other
2783 serial) lines. Ask your access provider if they support it, because
2784 otherwise you can't use it; most Internet access providers these
2785 days support PPP rather than SLIP.
2786
2787 To use PPP, you need an additional program called pppd as described
2788 in the PPP-HOWTO, available at
2789 <http://www.tldp.org/docs.html#howto>. Make sure that you have
2790 the version of pppd recommended in <file:Documentation/Changes>.
2791 The PPP option enlarges your kernel by about 16 KB.
2792
2793 There are actually two versions of PPP: the traditional PPP for
2794 asynchronous lines, such as regular analog phone lines, and
2795 synchronous PPP which can be used over digital ISDN lines for
2796 example. If you want to use PPP over phone lines or other
2797 asynchronous serial lines, you need to say Y (or M) here and also to
2798 the next option, "PPP support for async serial ports". For PPP over
2799 synchronous lines, you should say Y (or M) here and to "Support
2800 synchronous PPP", below.
2801
2802 If you said Y to "Version information on all symbols" above, then
2803 you cannot compile the PPP driver into the kernel; you can then only
2804 compile it as a module. To compile this driver as a module, choose M
57ce45dd 2805 here. The module will be called ppp_generic.

2811 PPP multilink is a protocol (defined in RFC 1990) which allows you
2812 to combine several (logical or physical) lines into one logical PPP
2813 connection, so that you can utilize your full bandwidth.
2814

2880 method as well for this to be useful. Even if they don't support it,

2883 The PPP Deflate compression method ("PPP Deflate compression",

2946 Internet Protocol) is a protocol used to send Internet traffic over
2947 serial connections such as telephone lines or null modem cables;
2948 nowadays, the protocol PPP is more commonly used for this same
2949 purpose.
2950
2951 Normally, your access provider has to support SLIP in order for you
2952 to be able to use it, but there is now a SLIP emulator called SLiRP
2953 around (available from
