6 config IPV6
7 tristate "The IPv6 protocol"
8 default m
9 ---help---
10 This is complemental support for the IP version 6.
11 You will still be able to do traditional IPv4 networking as well.
12
13 For general information about IPv6, see
14 <http://playground.sun.com/pub/ipng/html/ipng-main.html>.
15 For Linux IPv6 development information, see <http://www.linux-ipv6.org>.
16 For specific information about IPv6 under Linux, read the HOWTO at
17 <http://www.bieringer.de/linux/IPv6/>.

19 To compile this protocol support as a module, choose M here: the
20 module will be called ipv6.

22 config IPV6_PRIVACY
23 bool "IPv6: Privacy Extensions support"
24 depends on IPV6
25 ---help---
26 Privacy Extensions for Stateless Address Autoconfiguration in IPv6
27 support. With this option, additional periodically-alter
28 pseudo-random global-scope unicast address(es) will assigned to
29 your interface(s).
30
31 We use our standard pseudo random algorithm to generate randomized
32 interface identifier, instead of one described in RFC 3041.
33
34 By default, kernel do not generate temporary addresses.
35 To use temporary addresses, do
36
37 echo 2 >/proc/sys/net/ipv6/conf/all/use_tempaddr
38
39 See <file:Documentation/networking/ip-sysctl.txt> for details.

156 config IPV6_SIT
157 tristate "IPv6: IPv6-in-IPv4 tunnel (SIT driver)"
158 depends on IPV6
159 default y
160 ---help---
161 Tunneling means encapsulating data of one protocol type within
162 another protocol and sending it over a channel that understands the
163 encapsulating protocol. This driver implements encapsulation of IPv6
164 into IPv4 packets. This is useful if you want to connect two IPv6
165 networks over an IPv4-only path.
166
167 Saying M here will produce a module called sit.ko. If unsure, say Y.

187 depends on IPV6_MULTIPLE_TABLES
188 ---help---
189 Enable routing by source address or prefix.
190
191 The destination address is still the primary routing key, so mixing
192 normal and source prefix specific routes in the same routing table
193 may sometimes lead to unintended routing behavior. This can be
194 avoided by defining different routing tables for the normal and
195 source prefix specific routes.
196
197 If unsure, say N.
