15 you want to use under Linux. If you are going to run SLIP or PPP over

33 This is an intermediate driver that allows sharing of
34 resources.
35 To compile this driver as a module, choose M here: the module
36 will be called ifb. If you want to use more than one ifb
37 device at a time, you need to compile this driver as a module.

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
52 Administrator's Guide, available from

55 To compile this driver as a module, choose M here: the module

98 SLIP (the protocol for sending Internet traffic over telephone
99 lines) or PPP (a better SLIP) on them, you can make them behave like
100 one double speed connection using this driver. Naturally, this has
101 to be supported at the other end as well, either with a similar EQL
102 Linux driver or with a Livingston Portmaster 2e.

118 device, which instead of receiving packets from a physical media,
119 receives them from user space program and instead of sending packets
120 via physical media writes them to the user space program.
121
122 When a program opens /dev/net/tun, driver creates and registers
123 corresponding net device tunX or tapX. After a program closed above
124 devices, driver will automatically delete tunXX or tapXX device and
125 all routes corresponding to it.

148 cable modem. This is an ISA card which is used by a number of cable
149 TV companies to provide cable modem access. It's a one-way
150 downstream-only cable modem, meaning that your upstream net link is
151 provided by your regular phone modem.
152
153 At present this driver only compiles as a module, so say M here if
154 you have this card. The module will be called sb1000. Then read
155 <file:Documentation/networking/README.sb1000> for information on how
156 to use this module, as it needs special ppp scripts for establishing

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.

2697 CD-ROM drive (a minimal system has to be transferred with floppies
2698 first). The kernels on both machines need to have this PLIP option
2699 enabled for this to work.
2700
2701 The PLIP driver has two modes, mode 0 and mode 1. The parallel
2702 ports (the connectors at the computers with 25 holes) are connected
2703 with "null printer" or "Turbo Laplink" cables which can transmit 4
2704 bits at a time (mode 0) or with special PLIP cables, to be used on
2705 bidirectional parallel ports only, which can transmit 8 bits at a
2706 time (mode 1); you can find the wiring of these cables in
2707 <file:Documentation/networking/PLIP.txt>. The cables can be up to
2708 15m long. Mode 0 works also if one of the machines runs DOS/Windows
2709 and has some PLIP software installed, e.g. the Crynwr PLIP packet
2710 driver (<http://oak.oakland.edu/simtel.net/msdos/pktdrvr-pre.html>)
2711 and winsock or NCSA's telnet.
2712
2713 If you want to use PLIP, say Y and read the PLIP mini-HOWTO as well
2714 as the NET-3-HOWTO, both available from
2715 <http://www.tldp.org/docs.html#howto>. Note that the PLIP
2716 protocol has been changed and this PLIP driver won't work together
2717 with the PLIP support in Linux versions 1.0.x. This option enlarges
2718 your kernel by about 8 KB.
2719
2720 To compile this driver as a module, choose M here. The module
2721 will be called plip. If unsure, say Y or M, in case you buy
2722 a laptop later.
2723
2724 config PPP
2725 tristate "PPP (point-to-point protocol) support"
2726 select SLHC
2727 ---help---
2728 PPP (Point to Point Protocol) is a newer and better SLIP. It serves
2729 the same purpose: sending Internet traffic over telephone (and other
2730 serial) lines. Ask your access provider if they support it, because
2731 otherwise you can't use it; most Internet access providers these
2732 days support PPP rather than SLIP.
2733
2734 To use PPP, you need an additional program called pppd as described
2735 in the PPP-HOWTO, available at
2736 <http://www.tldp.org/docs.html#howto>. Make sure that you have
2737 the version of pppd recommended in <file:Documentation/Changes>.
2738 The PPP option enlarges your kernel by about 16 KB.
2739
2740 There are actually two versions of PPP: the traditional PPP for
2741 asynchronous lines, such as regular analog phone lines, and
2742 synchronous PPP which can be used over digital ISDN lines for
2743 example. If you want to use PPP over phone lines or other
2744 asynchronous serial lines, you need to say Y (or M) here and also to
2745 the next option, "PPP support for async serial ports". For PPP over
2746 synchronous lines, you should say Y (or M) here and to "Support
2747 synchronous PPP", below.
2748
2749 If you said Y to "Version information on all symbols" above, then
2750 you cannot compile the PPP driver into the kernel; you can then only
2751 compile it as a module. To compile this driver as a module, choose M
2752 here. The module will be called ppp_generic.
2753
2754 config PPP_MULTILINK
2755 bool "PPP multilink support (EXPERIMENTAL)"
2756 depends on PPP && EXPERIMENTAL
2757 help
2758 PPP multilink is a protocol (defined in RFC 1990) which allows you
2759 to combine several (logical or physical) lines into one logical PPP
2760 connection, so that you can utilize your full bandwidth.
2761
2762 This has to be supported at the other end as well and you need a
2763 version of the pppd daemon which understands the multilink protocol.
2764
2765 If unsure, say N.
2766
2767 config PPP_FILTER
2768 bool "PPP filtering"
2769 depends on PPP
2770 help
2771 Say Y here if you want to be able to filter the packets passing over
2772 PPP interfaces. This allows you to control which packets count as
2773 activity (i.e. which packets will reset the idle timer or bring up
2774 a demand-dialed link) and which packets are to be dropped entirely.
2775 You need to say Y here if you wish to use the pass-filter and
2776 active-filter options to pppd.

2786 asynchronous serial ports, such as COM1 or COM2 on a PC. If you use
2787 a modem (not a synchronous or ISDN modem) to contact your ISP, you
2788 need this option.

2797 help
2798 Say Y (or M) here if you want to be able to use PPP over synchronous
2799 (HDLC) tty devices, such as the SyncLink adapter. These devices
2800 are often used for high-speed leased lines like T1/E1.

2810 Support for the Deflate compression method for PPP, which uses the
2811 Deflate algorithm (the same algorithm that gzip uses) to compress
2812 each PPP packet before it is sent over the wire. The machine at the
2813 other end of the PPP link (usually your ISP) has to support the
2814 Deflate compression method as well for this to be useful. Even if
2815 they don't support it, it is safe to say Y here.

2819 config PPP_BSDCOMP
2820 tristate "PPP BSD-Compress compression"
2821 depends on PPP
2822 ---help---
2823 Support for the BSD-Compress compression method for PPP, which uses
2824 the LZW compression method to compress each PPP packet before it is
2825 sent over the wire. The machine at the other end of the PPP link
2826 (usually your ISP) has to support the BSD-Compress compression
2827 method as well for this to be useful. Even if they don't support it,
2828 it is safe to say Y here.
2829
2830 The PPP Deflate compression method ("PPP Deflate compression",
2831 above) is preferable to BSD-Compress, because it compresses better
2832 and is patent-free.
2833
2834 Note that the BSD compression code will always be compiled as a
2835 module; it is called bsd_comp and will show up in the directory
2836 modules once you have said "make modules". If unsure, say N.

2877 Support for PPP-over-L2TP socket family. L2TP is a protocol
2878 used by ISPs and enterprises to tunnel PPP traffic over UDP
2879 tunnels. L2TP is replacing PPTP for VPN uses.
2880
2881 This kernel component handles only L2TP data packets: a
2882 userland daemon handles L2TP the control protocol (tunnel
2883 and session setup). One such daemon is OpenL2TP

2888 ---help---
2889 Say Y if you intend to use SLIP or CSLIP (compressed SLIP) to
2890 connect to your Internet service provider or to connect to some
2891 other local Unix box or if you want to configure your Linux box as a
2892 Slip/CSlip server for other people to dial in. SLIP (Serial Line
2893 Internet Protocol) is a protocol used to send Internet traffic over
2894 serial connections such as telephone lines or null modem cables;
2895 nowadays, the protocol PPP is more commonly used for this same
2896 purpose.
2897
2898 Normally, your access provider has to support SLIP in order for you
2899 to be able to use it, but there is now a SLIP emulator called SLiRP
2900 around (available from
2901 <ftp://ibiblio.org/pub/Linux/system/network/serial/>) which
2902 allows you to use SLIP over a regular dial up shell connection. If
2903 you plan to use SLiRP, make sure to say Y to CSLIP, below. The
2904 NET-3-HOWTO, available from
2905 <http://www.tldp.org/docs.html#howto>, explains how to
2906 configure SLIP. Note that you don't need this option if you just
2907 want to run term (term is a program which gives you almost full
2908 Internet connectivity if you have a regular dial up shell account on
2909 some Internet connected Unix computer. Read
2910 <http://www.bart.nl/~patrickr/term-howto/Term-HOWTO.html>). SLIP
2911 support will enlarge your kernel by about 4 KB. If unsure, say N.

2920 ---help---
2921 This protocol is faster than SLIP because it uses compression on the
2922 TCP/IP headers (not on the data itself), but it has to be supported
2923 on both ends. Ask your access provider if you are not sure and
2924 answer Y, just in case. You will still be able to use plain SLIP. If
2925 you plan to use SLiRP, the SLIP emulator (available from
2926 <ftp://ibiblio.org/pub/Linux/system/network/serial/>) which
2927 allows you to use SLIP over a regular dial up shell connection, you
2928 definitely want to say Y here. The NET-3-HOWTO, available from
2929 <http://www.tldp.org/docs.html#howto>, explains how to configure
2930 CSLIP. This won't enlarge your kernel.

2950 Just occasionally you may need to run IP over hostile serial
2951 networks that don't pass all control characters or are only seven
2952 bit. Saying Y here adds an extra mode you can use with SLIP:
2953 "slip6". In this mode, SLIP will only send normal ASCII symbols over
2954 the serial device. Naturally, this has to be supported at the other
2955 end of the link as well. It's good enough, for example, to run IP
2956 over the async ports of a Camtec JNT Pad. If unsure, say N.
