11 any other computer at all.
12
13 You'll have to say Y if your computer contains a network card that
14 you want to use under Linux. If you are going to run SLIP or PPP over
15 telephone line or null modem cable you need say Y here. Connecting
16 two machines with parallel ports using PLIP needs this, as well as
17 AX.25/KISS for sending Internet traffic over amateur radio links.

32 This is an intermediate driver that allows sharing of
33 resources.
34 To compile this driver as a module, choose M here: the module
35 will be called ifb. If you want to use more than one ifb
36 device at a time, you need to compile this driver as a module.
37 Instead of 'ifb', the devices will then be called 'ifb0',
38 'ifb1' etc.

42 tristate "Dummy net driver support"
43 ---help---
44 This is essentially a bit-bucket device (i.e. traffic you send to
45 this device is consigned into oblivion) with a configurable IP
46 address. It is most commonly used in order to make your currently
47 inactive SLIP address seem like a real address for local programs.
48 If you use SLIP or PPP, you might want to say Y here. Since this
49 thing often comes in handy, the default is Y. It won't enlarge your
50 kernel either. What a deal. Read about it in the Network
51 Administrator's Guide, available from
52 <http://www.tldp.org/docs.html#guide>.
53
54 To compile this driver as a module, choose M here: the module
55 will be called dummy. If you want to use more than one dummy
56 device at a time, you need to compile this driver as a module.

66 Channels together. This is called 'Etherchannel' by Cisco,
67 'Trunking' by Sun, 802.3ad by the IEEE, and 'Bonding' in Linux.
68
69 The driver supports multiple bonding modes to allow for both high
70 performance and high availability operation.

97 usually requires two modems and two telephone lines) and you use
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.
103
104 Say Y if you want this and read

117 programs. It can be viewed as a simple Point-to-Point or Ethernet
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.

146 This is a driver for the General Instrument (also known as
147 NextLevel) SURFboard 1000 internal
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
157 a connection. Further documentation and the necessary scripts can be

177 ---help---
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.
196
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.

2901 install a Linux distribution on a machine which doesn't have a
2902 CD-ROM drive (a minimal system has to be transferred with floppies
2903 first). The kernels on both machines need to have this PLIP option
2904 enabled for this to work.
2905
2906 The PLIP driver has two modes, mode 0 and mode 1. The parallel
2907 ports (the connectors at the computers with 25 holes) are connected
2908 with "null printer" or "Turbo Laplink" cables which can transmit 4
2909 bits at a time (mode 0) or with special PLIP cables, to be used on
2910 bidirectional parallel ports only, which can transmit 8 bits at a
2911 time (mode 1); you can find the wiring of these cables in
2912 <file:Documentation/networking/PLIP.txt>. The cables can be up to
2913 15m long. Mode 0 works also if one of the machines runs DOS/Windows
2914 and has some PLIP software installed, e.g. the Crynwr PLIP packet

2933 PPP (Point to Point Protocol) is a newer and better SLIP. It serves
2934 the same purpose: sending Internet traffic over telephone (and other
2935 serial) lines. Ask your access provider if they support it, because
2936 otherwise you can't use it; most Internet access providers these
2937 days support PPP rather than SLIP.
2938

2942 the version of pppd recommended in <file:Documentation/Changes>.
2943 The PPP option enlarges your kernel by about 16 KB.
2944
2945 There are actually two versions of PPP: the traditional PPP for
2946 asynchronous lines, such as regular analog phone lines, and
2947 synchronous PPP which can be used over digital ISDN lines for
2948 example. If you want to use PPP over phone lines or other
2949 asynchronous serial lines, you need to say Y (or M) here and also to

2951 synchronous lines, you should say Y (or M) here and to "Support
