  9. You can say N here if you don't intend to connect your Linux box to
  10. any other computer at all.
  11. You'll have to say Y if your computer contains a network card that
  12. you want to use under Linux. If you are going to run SLIP or PPP over
  13. telephone line or null modem cable you need say Y here. Connecting
  14. two machines with parallel ports using PLIP needs this, as well as
  15. AX.25/KISS for sending Internet traffic over amateur radio links.

  26. This is an intermediate driver that allows sharing of
  27. resources.
  28. To compile this driver as a module, choose M here: the module
  29. will be called ifb. If you want to use more than one ifb
  30. device at a time, you need to compile this driver as a module.
  31. Instead of 'ifb', the devices will then be called 'ifb0',
  32. 'ifb1' etc.
  33. Look at the iproute2 documentation directory for usage etc
  34. config DUMMY
  35. tristate "Dummy net driver support"
  36. ---help---
  37. This is essentially a bit-bucket device (i.e. traffic you send to
  38. this device is consigned into oblivion) with a configurable IP
  39. address. It is most commonly used in order to make your currently
  40. inactive SLIP address seem like a real address for local programs.
  41. If you use SLIP or PPP, you might want to say Y here. Since this
  42. thing often comes in handy, the default is Y. It won't enlarge your
  43. kernel either. What a deal. Read about it in the Network
  44. Administrator's Guide, available from
  45. <http://www.tldp.org/docs.html#guide>.
  46. To compile this driver as a module, choose M here: the module
  47. will be called dummy. If you want to use more than one dummy
  48. device at a time, you need to compile this driver as a module.
  49. Instead of 'dummy', the devices will then be called 'dummy0',
  50. 'dummy1' etc.

  56. Say 'Y' or 'M' if you wish to be able to 'bond' multiple Ethernet
  57. Channels together. This is called 'Etherchannel' by Cisco,
  58. 'Trunking' by Sun, 802.3ad by the IEEE, and 'Bonding' in Linux.
  59. The driver supports multiple bonding modes to allow for both high
  60. performance and high availability operation.
  61. Refer to <file:Documentation/networking/bonding.txt> for more
  62. information.
  63. To compile this driver as a module, choose M here: the module
  64. will be called bonding.

  68. ---help---
  69. This allows one to create virtual interfaces that map packets to

  2654. <ftp://ibiblio.org/pub/Linux/system/network/serial/>) which
  2655. allows you to use SLIP over a regular dial up shell connection, you
  2656. definitely want to say Y here. The NET-3-HOWTO, available from
  2657. <http://www.tldp.org/docs.html#howto>, explains how to configure
  2658. CSLIP. This won't enlarge your kernel.
  2659. config SLHC
  2660. tristate
  2661. help
  2662. This option enables Van Jacobsen serial line header compression
  2663. routines.
  2664. config SLIP_SMART
  2665. bool "Keepalive and linefill"
  2666. depends on SLIP
  2667. help
  2668. Adds additional capabilities to the SLIP driver to support the
  2669. RELCOM line fill and keepalive monitoring. Ideal on poor quality
  2670. analogue lines.
  2671. config SLIP_MODE_SLIP6
  2672. bool "Six bit SLIP encapsulation"
  2673. depends on SLIP
  2674. help
  2675. Just occasionally you may need to run IP over hostile serial
  2676. networks that don't pass all control characters or are only seven
  2677. bit. Saying Y here adds an extra mode you can use with SLIP:
  2678. "slip6". In this mode, SLIP will only send normal ASCII symbols over
  2679. the serial device. Naturally, this has to be supported at the other
  2680. end of the link as well. It's good enough, for example, to run IP
  2681. over the async ports of a Camtec JNT Pad. If unsure, say N.
  2682. config NET_FC
  2683. bool "Fibre Channel driver support"
  2684. depends on SCSI && PCI
  2685. help
  2686. Fibre Channel is a high speed serial protocol mainly used to connect
  2687. large storage devices to the computer; it is compatible with and
  2688. intended to replace SCSI.
  2689. If you intend to use Fibre Channel, you need to have a Fibre channel
  2690. adaptor card in your computer; say Y here and to the driver for your
  2691. adaptor below. You also should have said Y to "SCSI support" and
  2692. "SCSI generic support".
  2693. config NETCONSOLE
  2694. tristate "Network console logging support (EXPERIMENTAL)"
  2695. depends on EXPERIMENTAL
  2696. ---help---
  2697. If you want to log kernel messages over the network, enable this.
  2698. See <file:Documentation/networking/netconsole.txt> for details.
  2699. config NETCONSOLE_DYNAMIC
  2700. bool "Dynamic reconfiguration of logging targets (EXPERIMENTAL)"
  2701. depends on NETCONSOLE && SYSFS && EXPERIMENTAL
  2702. select CONFIGFS_FS
  2703. help
  2704. This option enables the ability to dynamically reconfigure target
  2705. parameters (interface, IP addresses, port numbers, MAC addresses)
  2706. at runtime through a userspace interface exported using configfs.
  2707. See <file:Documentation/networking/netconsole.txt> for details.

  2716. config VIRTIO_NET
  2717. tristate "Virtio network driver (EXPERIMENTAL)"
  2718. depends on EXPERIMENTAL && VIRTIO
  2719. ---help---
  2720. This is the virtual network driver for virtio. It can be used with
  2721. lguest or QEMU based VMMs (like KVM or Xen). Say Y or M.
  2722. config VMXNET3
  2723. tristate "VMware VMXNET3 ethernet driver"
  2724. depends on PCI && INET
  2725. help
  2726. This driver supports VMware's vmxnet3 virtual ethernet NIC.
  2727. To compile this driver as a module, choose M here: the
  2728. module will be called vmxnet3.
