11 bool "Network device support"
12 ---help---
13 You can say N here if you don't intend to connect your Linux box to
14 any other computer at all.
15
16 You'll have to say Y if your computer contains a network card that
17 you want to use under Linux. If you are going to run SLIP or PPP over
18 telephone line or null modem cable you need say Y here. Connecting
19 two machines with parallel ports using PLIP needs this, as well as
20 AX.25/KISS for sending Internet traffic over amateur radio links.
21
22 See also "The Linux Network Administrator's Guide" by Olaf Kirch and
23 Terry Dawson. Available at <http://www.tldp.org/guides.html>.
24
25 If unsure, say Y.

46 ---help---
47 This is essentially a bit-bucket device (i.e. traffic you send to
48 this device is consigned into oblivion) with a configurable IP
49 address. It is most commonly used in order to make your currently
50 inactive SLIP address seem like a real address for local programs.
51 If you use SLIP or PPP, you might want to say Y here. Since this
52 thing often comes in handy, the default is Y. It won't enlarge your
53 kernel either. What a deal. Read about it in the Network
54 Administrator's Guide, available from

112 usually requires two modems and two telephone lines) and you use
113 SLIP (the protocol for sending Internet traffic over telephone
114 lines) or PPP (a better SLIP) on them, you can make them behave like

134 receives them from user space program and instead of sending packets
135 via physical media writes them to the user space program.

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

161 This is a driver for the General Instrument (also known as
162 NextLevel) SURFboard 1000 internal
163 cable modem. This is an ISA card which is used by a number of cable
164 TV companies to provide cable modem access. It's a one-way
165 downstream-only cable modem, meaning that your upstream net link is
166 provided by your regular phone modem.

169 you have this card. The module will be called sb1000. Then read
170 <file:Documentation/networking/README.sb1000> for information on how
171 to use this module, as it needs special ppp scripts for establishing
172 a connection. Further documentation and the necessary scripts can be

201 ---help---
202 Ethernet (also called IEEE 802.3 or ISO 8802-2) is the most common
203 type of Local Area Network (LAN) in universities and companies.
204
205 Common varieties of Ethernet are: 10BASE-2 or Thinnet (10 Mbps over
206 coaxial cable, linking computers in a chain), 10BASE-T or twisted
207 pair (10 Mbps over twisted pair cable, linking computers to central
208 hubs), 10BASE-F (10 Mbps over optical fiber links, using hubs),
209 100BASE-TX (100 Mbps over two twisted pair cables, using hubs),
210 100BASE-T4 (100 Mbps over 4 standard voice-grade twisted pair
211 cables, using hubs), 100BASE-FX (100 Mbps over optical fiber links)
212 [the 100BASE varieties are also known as Fast Ethernet], and Gigabit
213 Ethernet (1 Gbps over optical fiber or short copper links).
214
215 If your Linux machine will be connected to an Ethernet and you have
216 an Ethernet network interface card (NIC) installed in your computer,
217 say Y here and read the Ethernet-HOWTO, available from
218 <http://www.tldp.org/docs.html#howto>. You will then also have
219 to say Y to the driver for your particular NIC.
220
221 Note that the answer to this question won't directly affect the
222 kernel: saying N will just cause the configurator to skip all
223 the questions about Ethernet network cards. If unsure, say N.

1660 ports (the connectors at the computers with 25 holes) are connected

1662 bits at a time (mode 0) or with special PLIP cables, to be used on
1663 bidirectional parallel ports only, which can transmit 8 bits at a

1666 15m long. Mode 0 works also if one of the machines runs DOS/Windows

1867 you plan to use SLiRP, make sure to say Y to CSLIP, below. The
1868 NET-3-HOWTO, available from
1869 <http://www.tldp.org/docs.html#howto>, explains how to
1870 configure SLIP. Note that you don't need this option if you just
1871 want to run term (term is a program which gives you almost full
1872 Internet connectivity if you have a regular dial up shell account on
1873 some Internet connected Unix computer. Read
1874 <http://www.bart.nl/~patrickr/term-howto/Term-HOWTO.html>). SLIP
1875 support will enlarge your kernel by about 4 KB. If unsure, say N.

1884 ---help---
1885 This protocol is faster than SLIP because it uses compression on the
1886 TCP/IP headers (not on the data itself), but it has to be supported
1887 on both ends. Ask your access provider if you are not sure and
1888 answer Y, just in case. You will still be able to use plain SLIP. If
1889 you plan to use SLiRP, the SLIP emulator (available from
1890 <ftp://ibiblio.org/pub/Linux/system/network/serial/>) which
1891 allows you to use SLIP over a regular dial up shell connection, you
1892 definitely want to say Y here. The NET-3-HOWTO, available from
1893 <http://www.tldp.org/docs.html#howto>, explains how to configure
1894 CSLIP. This won't enlarge your kernel.

1913 help
1914 Just occasionally you may need to run IP over hostile serial
1915 networks that don't pass all control characters or are only seven
1916 bit. Saying Y here adds an extra mode you can use with SLIP:
1917 "slip6". In this mode, SLIP will only send normal ASCII symbols over
1918 the serial device. Naturally, this has to be supported at the other
1919 end of the link as well. It's good enough, for example, to run IP
1920 over the async ports of a Camtec JNT Pad. If unsure, say N.

1927 large storage devices to the computer; it is compatible with and

1930 If you intend to use Fibre Channel, you need to have a Fibre channel
