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

|
|
|
- ---help---
|
|
|
- This protocol is faster than SLIP because it uses compression on the
|
|
|
- TCP/IP headers (not on the data itself), but it has to be supported
|
|
|
- on both ends. Ask your access provider if you are not sure and
|
|
|
- answer Y, just in case. You will still be able to use plain SLIP. If
|
|
|
- you plan to use SLiRP, the SLIP emulator (available from
|

|
- <ftp://ibiblio.org/pub/Linux/system/network/serial/>) which
|

- allows you to use SLIP over a regular dial up shell connection, you

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