If you are going to run SLIP or PPP over 16 telephone line or null modem cable you need say Y here. Connecting 17 two machines with parallel ports using PLIP needs this, as well as 18 AX.25/KISS for sending Internet traffic over amateur radio links. 19 20 See also "The Linux Network Administrator's Guide" by Olaf Kirch and 21 Terry Dawson. Available at <http://www.tldp.org/guides.html>. 22 23 If unsure, say Y. 24 25# All the following symbols are dependent on NETDEVICES - do not repeat 26# that for each of the symbols. 27if NETDEVICES 28 29config NETDEVICES_MULTIQUEUE 30 bool "Netdevice multiple hardware queue support" 31 ---help--- 32 Say Y here if you want to allow the network stack to use multiple 33 hardware TX queues on an ethernet device. 34 35 Most people will say N here. 36 37config IFB 38 tristate "Intermediate Functional Block support" 39 depends on NET_CLS_ACT 40 ---help--- 41 This is an intermediate driver that allows sharing of 42 resources. 43 To compile this driver as a module, choose M here: the module 44 will be called ifb. If you want to use more than one ifb 45 device at a time, you need to compile this driver as a module. 46 Instead of 'ifb', the devices will then be called 'ifb0', 47 'ifb1' etc. 48 Look at the iproute2 documentation directory for usage etc 49 50config DUMMY 51 tristate "Dummy net driver support" 52 ---help--- 53 This is essentially a bit-bucket device (i.e. traffic you send to 54 this device is consigned into oblivion) with a configurable IP 55 address. It is most commonly used in order to make your currently 56 inactive SLIP address seem like a real address for local programs. 57 If you use SLIP or PPP, you might want to say Y here. Since this 58 thing often comes in handy, the default is Y. It won't enlarge your 59 kernel either. What a deal. Read about it in the Network 60 Administrator's Guide, available from 61 <http://www.tldp.org/docs.html#guide>. 62 63 To compile this driver as a module, choose M here: the module 64 will be called dummy.

This is called 'Etherchannel' by Cisco, 75 'Trunking' by Sun, 802.3ad by the IEEE, and 'Bonding' in Linux. 76 77 The driver supports multiple bonding modes to allow for both high 78 performance and high availability operation. 79 80 Refer to <file:Documentation/networking/bonding.txt> for more 81 information. 82 83 To compile this driver as a module, choose M here: the module 84 will be called bonding. 85 86config MACVLAN 87 tristate "MAC-VLAN support (EXPERIMENTAL)" 88 depends on EXPERIMENTAL 89 ---help--- 90 This allows one to create virtual interfaces that map packets to 91 or from specific MAC addresses to a particular interface. 92 93 To compile this driver as a module, choose M here: the module 94 will be called macvlan. 95 96config EQUALIZER 97 tristate "EQL (serial line load balancing) support" 98 ---help--- 99 If you have two serial connections to some other computer (this 100 usually requires two modems and two telephone lines) and you use 101 SLIP (the protocol for sending Internet traffic over telephone 102 lines) or PPP (a better SLIP) on them, you can make them behave like 103 one double speed connection using this driver. Naturally, this has 104 to be supported at the other end as well, either with a similar EQL 105 Linux driver or with a Livingston Portmaster 2e. 106 107 Say Y if you want this and read 108 <file:Documentation/networking/eql.txt>.

It can be viewed as a simple Point-to-Point or Ethernet 121 device, which instead of receiving packets from a physical media, 122 receives them from user space program and instead of sending packets 123 via physical media writes them to the user space program. 124 125 When a program opens /dev/net/tun, driver creates and registers 126 corresponding net device tunX or tapX. After a program closed above 127 devices, driver will automatically delete tunXX or tapXX device and 128 all routes corresponding to it. 129 130 Please read <file:Documentation/networking/tuntap.txt> for more 131 information. 132 133 To compile this driver as a module, choose M here: the module 134 will be called tun. 135 136 If you don't know what to use this for, you don't need it. 137 138config VETH 139 tristate "Virtual ethernet pair device" 140 ---help--- 141 This device is a local ethernet tunnel.

This is an ISA card which is used by a number of cable 152 TV companies to provide cable modem access. It's a one-way 153 downstream-only cable modem, meaning that your upstream net link is 154 provided by your regular phone modem. 155 156 At present this driver only compiles as a module, so say M here if 157 you have this card. The module will be called sb1000. Then read 158 <file:Documentation/networking/README.sb1000> for information on how 159 to use this module, as it needs special ppp scripts for establishing 160 a connection.

A PLIP link from a Linux box is a popular means to 2825 install a Linux distribution on a machine which doesn't have a 2826 CD-ROM drive (a minimal system has to be transferred with floppies 2827 first). The kernels on both machines need to have this PLIP option 2828 enabled for this to work. 2829 2830 The PLIP driver has two modes, mode 0 and mode 1. The parallel 2831 ports (the connectors at the computers with 25 holes) are connected 2832 with "null printer" or "Turbo Laplink" cables which can transmit 4 2833 bits at a time (mode 0) or with special PLIP cables, to be used on 2834 bidirectional parallel ports only, which can transmit 8 bits at a 2835 time (mode 1); you can find the wiring of these cables in 2836 <file:Documentation/networking/PLIP.txt>. The cables can be up to 2837 15m long. Mode 0 works also if one of the machines runs DOS/Windows 2838 and has some PLIP software installed, e.g. the Crynwr PLIP packet 2839 driver (<http://oak.oakland.edu/simtel.net/msdos/pktdrvr-pre.html>) 2840 and winsock or NCSA's telnet. 2841 2842 If you want to use PLIP, say Y and read the PLIP mini-HOWTO as well 2843 as the NET-3-HOWTO, both available from 2844 <http://www.tldp.org/docs.html#howto>. Note that the PLIP 2845 protocol has been changed and this PLIP driver won't work together 2846 with the PLIP support in Linux versions 1.0.x. This option enlarges 2847 your kernel by about 8 KB. 2848 2849 To compile this driver as a module, choose M here. The module 2850 will be called plip. If unsure, say Y or M, in case you buy 2851 a laptop later. 2852 2853config PPP 2854 tristate "PPP (point-to-point protocol) support" 2855 select SLHC 2856 ---help--- 2857 PPP (Point to Point Protocol) is a newer and better SLIP. It serves 2858 the same purpose: sending Internet traffic over telephone (and other 2859 serial) lines. Ask your access provider if they support it, because 2860 otherwise you can't use it; most Internet access providers these 2861 days support PPP rather than SLIP. 2862 2863 To use PPP, you need an additional program called pppd as described 2864 in the PPP-HOWTO, available at 2865 <http://www.tldp.org/docs.html#howto>. Make sure that you have 2866 the version of pppd recommended in <file:Documentation/Changes>. 2867 The PPP option enlarges your kernel by about 16 KB. 2868 2869 There are actually two versions of PPP: the traditional PPP for 2870 asynchronous lines, such as regular analog phone lines, and 2871 synchronous PPP which can be used over digital ISDN lines for 2872 example. If you want to use PPP over phone lines or other 2873 asynchronous serial lines, you need to say Y (or M) here and also to 2874 the next option, "PPP support for async serial ports". For PPP over 2875 synchronous lines, you should say Y (or M) here and to "Support 2876 synchronous PPP", below. 2877 2878 If you said Y to "Version information on all symbols" above, then 2879 you cannot compile the PPP driver into the kernel; you can then only 2880 compile it as a module. To compile this driver as a module, choose M 2881 here. The module will be called ppp_generic. 2882 2883config PPP_MULTILINK 2884 bool "PPP multilink support (EXPERIMENTAL)" 2885 depends on PPP && EXPERIMENTAL 2886 help 2887 PPP multilink is a protocol (defined in RFC 1990) which allows you 2888 to combine several (logical or physical) lines into one logical PPP 2889 connection, so that you can utilize your full bandwidth. 2890 2891 This has to be supported at the other end as well and you need a 2892 version of the pppd daemon which understands the multilink protocol. 2893 2894 If unsure, say N. 2895 2896config PPP_FILTER 2897 bool "PPP filtering" 2898 depends on PPP 2899 help 2900 Say Y here if you want to be able to filter the packets passing over 2901 PPP interfaces. This allows you to control which packets count as 2902 activity (i.e. which packets will reset the idle timer or bring up 2903 a demand-dialed link) and which packets are to be dropped entirely. 2904 You need to say Y here if you wish to use the pass-filter and 2905 active-filter options to pppd. 2906 2907 If unsure, say N. 2908 2909config PPP_ASYNC 2910 tristate "PPP support for async serial ports" 2911 depends on PPP 2912 select CRC_CCITT 2913 ---help--- 2914 Say Y (or M) here if you want to be able to use PPP over standard 2915 asynchronous serial ports, such as COM1 or COM2 on a PC. If you use 2916 a modem (not a synchronous or ISDN modem) to contact your ISP, you 2917 need this option. 2918 2919 To compile this driver as a module, choose M here. 2920 2921 If unsure, say Y. 2922 2923config PPP_SYNC_TTY 2924 tristate "PPP support for sync tty ports" 2925 depends on PPP 2926 help 2927 Say Y (or M) here if you want to be able to use PPP over synchronous 2928 (HDLC) tty devices, such as the SyncLink adapter. These devices 2929 are often used for high-speed leased lines like T1/E1. 2930 2931 To compile this driver as a module, choose M here. 2932 2933config PPP_DEFLATE 2934 tristate "PPP Deflate compression" 2935 depends on PPP 2936 select ZLIB_INFLATE 2937 select ZLIB_DEFLATE 2938 ---help--- 2939 Support for the Deflate compression method for PPP, which uses the 2940 Deflate algorithm (the same algorithm that gzip uses) to compress 2941 each PPP packet before it is sent over the wire. The machine at the 2942 other end of the PPP link (usually your ISP) has to support the 2943 Deflate compression method as well for this to be useful. Even if 2944 they don't support it, it is safe to say Y here. 2945 2946 To compile this driver as a module, choose M here. 2947 2948config PPP_BSDCOMP 2949 tristate "PPP BSD-Compress compression" 2950 depends on PPP 2951 ---help--- 2952 Support for the BSD-Compress compression method for PPP, which uses 2953 the LZW compression method to compress each PPP packet before it is 2954 sent over the wire. The machine at the other end of the PPP link 2955 (usually your ISP) has to support the BSD-Compress compression 2956 method as well for this to be useful. Even if they don't support it, 2957 it is safe to say Y here. 2958 2959 The PPP Deflate compression method ("PPP Deflate compression", 2960 above) is preferable to BSD-Compress, because it compresses better 2961 and is patent-free. 2962 2963 Note that the BSD compression code will always be compiled as a 2964 module; it is called bsd_comp and will show up in the directory 2965 modules once you have said "make modules".

L2TP is a protocol 3007 used by ISPs and enterprises to tunnel PPP traffic over UDP 3008 tunnels. L2TP is replacing PPTP for VPN uses. 3009 3010 This kernel component handles only L2TP data packets: a 3011 userland daemon handles L2TP the control protocol (tunnel 3012 and session setup). One such daemon is OpenL2TP 3013 (http://openl2tp.sourceforge.net/). 3014 3015config SLIP 3016 tristate "SLIP (serial line) support" 3017 ---help--- 3018 Say Y if you intend to use SLIP or CSLIP (compressed SLIP) to 3019 connect to your Internet service provider or to connect to some 3020 other local Unix box or if you want to configure your Linux box as a 3021 Slip/CSlip server for other people to dial in. SLIP (Serial Line 3022 Internet Protocol) is a protocol used to send Internet traffic over 3023 serial connections such as telephone lines or null modem cables; 3024 nowadays, the protocol PPP is more commonly used for this same 3025 purpose. 3026 3027 Normally, your access provider has to support SLIP in order for you 3028 to be able to use it, but there is now a SLIP emulator called SLiRP 3029 around (available from 3030 <ftp://ibiblio.org/pub/Linux/system/network/serial/>) which 3031 allows you to use SLIP over a regular dial up shell connection. If 3032 you plan to use SLiRP, make sure to say Y to CSLIP, below. The 3033 NET-3-HOWTO, available from 3034 <http://www.tldp.org/docs.html#howto>, explains how to 3035 configure SLIP. Note that you don't need this option if you just 3036 want to run term (term is a program which gives you almost full 3037 Internet connectivity if you have a regular dial up shell account on 3038 some Internet connected Unix computer. Read 3039 <http://www.bart.nl/~patrickr/term-howto/Term-HOWTO.html>). SLIP 3040 support will enlarge your kernel by about 4 KB. If unsure, say N. 3041 3042 To compile this driver as a module, choose M here.

Ask your access provider if you are not sure and 3053 answer Y, just in case. You will still be able to use plain SLIP. If 3054 you plan to use SLiRP, the SLIP emulator (available from 3055 <ftp://ibiblio.org/pub/Linux/system/network/serial/>) which 3056 allows you to use SLIP over a regular dial up shell connection, you 3057 definitely want to say Y here. The NET-3-HOWTO, available from 3058 <http://www.tldp.org/docs.html#howto>, explains how to configure 3059 CSLIP.

Saying Y here adds an extra mode you can use with SLIP: 3082 "slip6". In this mode, SLIP will only send normal ASCII symbols over 3083 the serial device. Naturally, this has to be supported at the other 3084 end of the link as well. It's good enough, for example, to run IP 3085 over the async ports of a Camtec JNT Pad.
