9 | The Transparent Inter Process Communication (TIPC) protocol is |
10 | specially designed for intra cluster communication. This protocol | |
11 | originates from Ericsson where it has been used in carrier grade | |
12 | cluster applications for many years. | |

16 | This protocol support is also available as a module ( = code which | |
17 | can be inserted in and removed from the running kernel whenever you | |
18 | want). The module will be called tipc. If you want to compile it | |
39f5fb30 | 19 | as a module, say M here and read <file:Documentation/kbuild/modules.txt>. |

21 | If in doubt, say N. | |

29 | Specifies how many ports can be supported by a node. |
30 | Can range from 127 to 65535 ports; default is 8191. | |

0e65967e | 32 | Setting this to a smaller value saves some memory, |
7981d6f6 | 33 | setting it to higher allows for more ports. |

39 | Saying Y here will enable support for running TIPC on | |
40 | IP-over-InfiniBand devices. |
