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.

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

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

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).

2652 PLIP (Parallel Line Internet Protocol) is used to create a
2653 reasonably fast mini network consisting of two (or, rarely, more)
2654 local machines. A PLIP link from a Linux box is a popular means to
2655 install a Linux distribution on a machine which doesn't have a
2656 CD-ROM drive (a minimal system has to be transferred with floppies
2657 first). The kernels on both machines need to have this PLIP option
2658 enabled for this to work.
2659
2660 The PLIP driver has two modes, mode 0 and mode 1. The parallel
2661 ports (the connectors at the computers with 25 holes) are connected
2662 with "null printer" or "Turbo Laplink" cables which can transmit 4
2663 bits at a time (mode 0) or with special PLIP cables, to be used on
2664 bidirectional parallel ports only, which can transmit 8 bits at a
2665 time (mode 1); you can find the wiring of these cables in
2666 <file:Documentation/networking/PLIP.txt>. The cables can be up to
2667 15m long. Mode 0 works also if one of the machines runs DOS/Windows
2668 and has some PLIP software installed, e.g. the Crynwr PLIP packet
2669 driver (<http://oak.oakland.edu/simtel.net/msdos/pktdrvr-pre.html>)
2670 and winsock or NCSA's telnet.

2673 as the NET-3-HOWTO, both available from
2674 <http://www.tldp.org/docs.html#howto>. Note that the PLIP

2676 with the PLIP support in Linux versions 1.0.x. This option enlarges
2677 your kernel by about 8 KB.

2679 To compile this driver as a module, choose M here. The module
2680 will be called plip. If unsure, say Y or M, in case you buy
2681 a laptop later.

2683 config PPP
2684 tristate "PPP (point-to-point protocol) support"
2685 select SLHC
2686 ---help---
2687 PPP (Point to Point Protocol) is a newer and better SLIP. It serves
2688 the same purpose: sending Internet traffic over telephone (and other
2689 serial) lines. Ask your access provider if they support it, because
2690 otherwise you can't use it; most Internet access providers these
2691 days support PPP rather than SLIP.
2692
2693 To use PPP, you need an additional program called pppd as described
2694 in the PPP-HOWTO, available at
2695 <http://www.tldp.org/docs.html#howto>. Make sure that you have
2696 the version of pppd recommended in <file:Documentation/Changes>.
2697 The PPP option enlarges your kernel by about 16 KB.
2698
2699 There are actually two versions of PPP: the traditional PPP for
2700 asynchronous lines, such as regular analog phone lines, and
2701 synchronous PPP which can be used over digital ISDN lines for
2702 example. If you want to use PPP over phone lines or other
2703 asynchronous serial lines, you need to say Y (or M) here and also to
2704 the next option, "PPP support for async serial ports". For PPP over
2705 synchronous lines, you should say Y (or M) here and to "Support
2706 synchronous PPP", below.
2707
2708 If you said Y to "Version information on all symbols" above, then
2709 you cannot compile the PPP driver into the kernel; you can then only
2710 compile it as a module. To compile this driver as a module, choose M
2711 here. The module will be called ppp_generic.

2713 config PPP_MULTILINK
2714 bool "PPP multilink support (EXPERIMENTAL)"
2715 depends on PPP && EXPERIMENTAL
2716 help
2717 PPP multilink is a protocol (defined in RFC 1990) which allows you
2718 to combine several (logical or physical) lines into one logical PPP
2719 connection, so that you can utilize your full bandwidth.
2720
2721 This has to be supported at the other end as well and you need a
2722 version of the pppd daemon which understands the multilink protocol.
2723
2724 If unsure, say N.
2725
2726 config PPP_FILTER
2727 bool "PPP filtering"
2728 depends on PPP
2729 help
2730 Say Y here if you want to be able to filter the packets passing over
2731 PPP interfaces. This allows you to control which packets count as
2732 activity (i.e. which packets will reset the idle timer or bring up
2733 a demand-dialed link) and which packets are to be dropped entirely.
2734 You need to say Y here if you wish to use the pass-filter and
2735 active-filter options to pppd.

2744 Say Y (or M) here if you want to be able to use PPP over standard
2745 asynchronous serial ports, such as COM1 or COM2 on a PC. If you use
2746 a modem (not a synchronous or ISDN modem) to contact your ISP, you
2747 need this option.

2756 help
2757 Say Y (or M) here if you want to be able to use PPP over synchronous
2758 (HDLC) tty devices, such as the SyncLink adapter. These devices
2759 are often used for high-speed leased lines like T1/E1.

2769 Support for the Deflate compression method for PPP, which uses the
2770 Deflate algorithm (the same algorithm that gzip uses) to compress
2771 each PPP packet before it is sent over the wire. The machine at the
2772 other end of the PPP link (usually your ISP) has to support the
2773 Deflate compression method as well for this to be useful. Even if
2774 they don't support it, it is safe to say Y here.

2778 config PPP_BSDCOMP
2779 tristate "PPP BSD-Compress compression"
2780 depends on PPP
2781 ---help---
2782 Support for the BSD-Compress compression method for PPP, which uses
2783 the LZW compression method to compress each PPP packet before it is
2784 sent over the wire. The machine at the other end of the PPP link
2785 (usually your ISP) has to support the BSD-Compress compression
2786 method as well for this to be useful. Even if they don't support it,
2787 it is safe to say Y here.
2788
2789 The PPP Deflate compression method ("PPP Deflate compression",
2790 above) is preferable to BSD-Compress, because it compresses better
2791 and is patent-free.
2792
2793 Note that the BSD compression code will always be compiled as a
2794 module; it is called bsd_comp and will show up in the directory
2795 modules once you have said "make modules". If unsure, say N.

2836 Support for PPP-over-L2TP socket family. L2TP is a protocol
2837 used by ISPs and enterprises to tunnel PPP traffic over UDP
2838 tunnels. L2TP is replacing PPTP for VPN uses.
2839
2840 This kernel component handles only L2TP data packets: a
2841 userland daemon handles L2TP the control protocol (tunnel
2842 and session setup). One such daemon is OpenL2TP

2845 config SLIP
2846 tristate "SLIP (serial line) support"
2847 ---help---
2848 Say Y if you intend to use SLIP or CSLIP (compressed SLIP) to
2849 connect to your Internet service provider or to connect to some
2850 other local Unix box or if you want to configure your Linux box as a
2851 Slip/CSlip server for other people to dial in. SLIP (Serial Line
2852 Internet Protocol) is a protocol used to send Internet traffic over
2853 serial connections such as telephone lines or null modem cables;
2854 nowadays, the protocol PPP is more commonly used for this same
2855 purpose.
2856
2857 Normally, your access provider has to support SLIP in order for you
2858 to be able to use it, but there is now a SLIP emulator called SLiRP
2859 around (available from
2860 <ftp://ibiblio.org/pub/Linux/system/network/serial/>) which
2861 allows you to use SLIP over a regular dial up shell connection. If
2862 you plan to use SLiRP, make sure to say Y to CSLIP, below. The
2863 NET-3-HOWTO, available from
2864 <http://www.tldp.org/docs.html#howto>, explains how to
2865 configure SLIP. Note that you don't need this option if you just
2866 want to run term (term is a program which gives you almost full
2867 Internet connectivity if you have a regular dial up shell account on
2868 some Internet connected Unix computer. Read
2869 <http://www.bart.nl/~patrickr/term-howto/Term-HOWTO.html>). SLIP
2870 support will enlarge your kernel by about 4 KB. If unsure, say N.

2878 select SLHC
2879 ---help---
2880 This protocol is faster than SLIP because it uses compression on the
2881 TCP/IP headers (not on the data itself), but it has to be supported
2882 on both ends. Ask your access provider if you are not sure and
2883 answer Y, just in case. You will still be able to use plain SLIP. If
2884 you plan to use SLiRP, the SLIP emulator (available from
2885 <ftp://ibiblio.org/pub/Linux/system/network/serial/>) which
2886 allows you to use SLIP over a regular dial up shell connection, you
2887 definitely want to say Y here. The NET-3-HOWTO, available from
2888 <http://www.tldp.org/docs.html#howto>, explains how to configure
2889 CSLIP. This won't enlarge your kernel.

2909 Just occasionally you may need to run IP over hostile serial
2910 networks that don't pass all control characters or are only seven
2911 bit. Saying Y here adds an extra mode you can use with SLIP:
2912 "slip6". In this mode, SLIP will only send normal ASCII symbols over
2913 the serial device. Naturally, this has to be supported at the other
2914 end of the link as well. It's good enough, for example, to run IP
2915 over the async ports of a Camtec JNT Pad. If unsure, say N.
