11 You can say N here if you don't intend to connect your Linux box to
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
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

154 you have this card. The module will be called sb1000. Then read

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.

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.

2721 PLIP (Parallel Line Internet Protocol) is used to create a
2722 reasonably fast mini network consisting of two (or, rarely, more)
2723 local machines. A PLIP link from a Linux box is a popular means to
2724 install a Linux distribution on a machine which doesn't have a
2725 CD-ROM drive (a minimal system has to be transferred with floppies
2726 first). The kernels on both machines need to have this PLIP option
2727 enabled for this to work.
2728
2729 The PLIP driver has two modes, mode 0 and mode 1. The parallel
2730 ports (the connectors at the computers with 25 holes) are connected
2731 with "null printer" or "Turbo Laplink" cables which can transmit 4
2732 bits at a time (mode 0) or with special PLIP cables, to be used on
2733 bidirectional parallel ports only, which can transmit 8 bits at a
2734 time (mode 1); you can find the wiring of these cables in
2735 <file:Documentation/networking/PLIP.txt>. The cables can be up to
2736 15m long. Mode 0 works also if one of the machines runs DOS/Windows
2737 and has some PLIP software installed, e.g. the Crynwr PLIP packet
2738 driver (<http://oak.oakland.edu/simtel.net/msdos/pktdrvr-pre.html>)
2739 and winsock or NCSA's telnet.

2742 as the NET-3-HOWTO, both available from
2743 <http://www.tldp.org/docs.html#howto>. Note that the PLIP
2744 protocol has been changed and this PLIP driver won't work together
2745 with the PLIP support in Linux versions 1.0.x. This option enlarges

2756 PPP (Point to Point Protocol) is a newer and better SLIP. It serves
2757 the same purpose: sending Internet traffic over telephone (and other
2758 serial) lines. Ask your access provider if they support it, because
2759 otherwise you can't use it; most Internet access providers these
2760 days support PPP rather than SLIP.
2761
2762 To use PPP, you need an additional program called pppd as described
2763 in the PPP-HOWTO, available at
2764 <http://www.tldp.org/docs.html#howto>. Make sure that you have
2765 the version of pppd recommended in <file:Documentation/Changes>.
2766 The PPP option enlarges your kernel by about 16 KB.
2767
2768 There are actually two versions of PPP: the traditional PPP for
2769 asynchronous lines, such as regular analog phone lines, and
2770 synchronous PPP which can be used over digital ISDN lines for
2771 example. If you want to use PPP over phone lines or other
2772 asynchronous serial lines, you need to say Y (or M) here and also to
2773 the next option, "PPP support for async serial ports". For PPP over
2774 synchronous lines, you should say Y (or M) here and to "Support
2775 synchronous PPP", below.
2776
2777 If you said Y to "Version information on all symbols" above, then
2778 you cannot compile the PPP driver into the kernel; you can then only

2917 Say Y if you intend to use SLIP or CSLIP (compressed SLIP) to
2918 connect to your Internet service provider or to connect to some
2919 other local Unix box or if you want to configure your Linux box as a
2920 Slip/CSlip server for other people to dial in. SLIP (Serial Line
2921 Internet Protocol) is a protocol used to send Internet traffic over
2922 serial connections such as telephone lines or null modem cables;
2923 nowadays, the protocol PPP is more commonly used for this same
2924 purpose.
2925
2926 Normally, your access provider has to support SLIP in order for you
2927 to be able to use it, but there is now a SLIP emulator called SLiRP
2928 around (available from
2929 <ftp://ibiblio.org/pub/Linux/system/network/serial/>) which
2930 allows you to use SLIP over a regular dial up shell connection. If
2931 you plan to use SLiRP, make sure to say Y to CSLIP, below. The
2932 NET-3-HOWTO, available from
2933 <http://www.tldp.org/docs.html#howto>, explains how to
2934 configure SLIP. Note that you don't need this option if you just
2935 want to run term (term is a program which gives you almost full
2936 Internet connectivity if you have a regular dial up shell account on
2937 some Internet connected Unix computer. Read
2938 <http://www.bart.nl/~patrickr/term-howto/Term-HOWTO.html>). SLIP

2952 answer Y, just in case. You will still be able to use plain SLIP. If

2981 "slip6". In this mode, SLIP will only send normal ASCII symbols over
2982 the serial device. Naturally, this has to be supported at the other
