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.

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.

It can be viewed as a simple Point-to-Point or Ethernet 126 device, which instead of receiving packets from a physical media, 127 receives them from user space program and instead of sending packets 128 via physical media writes them to the user space program. 129 130 When a program opens /dev/net/tun, driver creates and registers 131 corresponding net device tunX or tapX. After a program closed above 132 devices, driver will automatically delete tunXX or tapXX device and 133 all routes corresponding to it. 134 135 Please read <file:Documentation/networking/tuntap.txt> for more 136 information. 137 138 To compile this driver as a module, choose M here: the module 139 will be called tun. 140 141 If you don't know what to use this for, you don't need it. 142 143config VETH 144 tristate "Virtual ethernet pair device" 145 ---help--- 146 This device is a local ethernet tunnel.

This is an ISA card which is used by a number of cable 157 TV companies to provide cable modem access. It's a one-way 158 downstream-only cable modem, meaning that your upstream net link is 159 provided by your regular phone modem. 160 161 At present this driver only compiles as a module, so say M here if 162 you have this card. The module will be called sb1000. Then read 163 <file:Documentation/networking/README.sb1000> for information on how 164 to use this module, as it needs special ppp scripts for establishing 165 a connection.

Alternatively, see the 2903 RoaringPenguin package (<http://www.roaringpenguin.com/pppoe>) 2904 which contains instruction on how to use this driver (under 2905 the heading "Kernel mode PPPoE"). 2906 2907config PPPOATM 2908 tristate "PPP over ATM" 2909 depends on ATM && PPP 2910 help 2911 Support PPP (Point to Point Protocol) encapsulated in ATM frames. 2912 This implementation does not yet comply with section 8 of RFC2364, 2913 which can lead to bad results if the ATM peer loses state and 2914 changes its encapsulation unilaterally. 2915 2916config PPPOL2TP 2917 tristate "PPP over L2TP (EXPERIMENTAL)" 2918 depends on EXPERIMENTAL && PPP && INET 2919 help 2920 Support for PPP-over-L2TP socket family. L2TP is a protocol 2921 used by ISPs and enterprises to tunnel PPP traffic over UDP 2922 tunnels. L2TP is replacing PPTP for VPN uses. 2923 2924 This kernel component handles only L2TP data packets: a 2925 userland daemon handles L2TP the control protocol (tunnel 2926 and session setup). One such daemon is OpenL2TP 2927 (http://openl2tp.sourceforge.net/). 2928 2929config SLIP 2930 tristate "SLIP (serial line) support" 2931 ---help--- 2932 Say Y if you intend to use SLIP or CSLIP (compressed SLIP) to 2933 connect to your Internet service provider or to connect to some 2934 other local Unix box or if you want to configure your Linux box as a 2935 Slip/CSlip server for other people to dial in. SLIP (Serial Line 2936 Internet Protocol) is a protocol used to send Internet traffic over 2937 serial connections such as telephone lines or null modem cables; 2938 nowadays, the protocol PPP is more commonly used for this same 2939 purpose. 2940 2941 Normally, your access provider has to support SLIP in order for you 2942 to be able to use it, but there is now a SLIP emulator called SLiRP 2943 around (available from 2944 <ftp://ibiblio.org/pub/Linux/system/network/serial/>) which 2945 allows you to use SLIP over a regular dial up shell connection. If 2946 you plan to use SLiRP, make sure to say Y to CSLIP, below. The 2947 NET-3-HOWTO, available from 2948 <http://www.tldp.org/docs.html#howto>, explains how to 2949 configure SLIP. Note that you don't need this option if you just 2950 want to run term (term is a program which gives you almost full 2951 Internet connectivity if you have a regular dial up shell account on 2952 some Internet connected Unix computer. Read 2953 <http://www.bart.nl/~patrickr/term-howto/Term-HOWTO.html>). SLIP 2954 support will enlarge your kernel by about 4 KB.

Ask your access provider if you are not sure and 2967 answer Y, just in case. You will still be able to use plain SLIP. If 2968 you plan to use SLiRP, the SLIP emulator (available from 2969 <ftp://ibiblio.org/pub/Linux/system/network/serial/>) which 2970 allows you to use SLIP over a regular dial up shell connection, you 2971 definitely want to say Y here. The NET-3-HOWTO, available from 2972 <http://www.tldp.org/docs.html#howto>, explains how to configure 2973 CSLIP. This won't enlarge your kernel. 2974 2975config SLHC 2976 tristate 2977 help 2978 This option enables Van Jacobsen serial line header compression 2979 routines. 2980 2981config SLIP_SMART 2982 bool "Keepalive and linefill" 2983 depends on SLIP 2984 help 2985 Adds additional capabilities to the SLIP driver to support the 2986 RELCOM line fill and keepalive monitoring.

Saying Y here adds an extra mode you can use with SLIP: 2996 "slip6". In this mode, SLIP will only send normal ASCII symbols over 2997 the serial device. Naturally, this has to be supported at the other 2998 end of the link as well. It's good enough, for example, to run IP 2999 over the async ports of a Camtec JNT Pad.
