  112. via physical media writes them to the user space program.
  113. When a program opens /dev/net/tun, driver creates and registers

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

  803. ---help---
  804. This protocol is faster than SLIP because it uses compression on the
  805. TCP/IP headers (not on the data itself), but it has to be supported
  806. on both ends. Ask your access provider if you are not sure and
  807. answer Y, just in case. You will still be able to use plain SLIP. If
  808. you plan to use SLiRP, the SLIP emulator (available from
  809. <ftp://ibiblio.org/pub/Linux/system/network/serial/>) which
  810. allows you to use SLIP over a regular dial up shell connection, you
  811. definitely want to say Y here. The NET-3-HOWTO, available from
  812. <http://www.tldp.org/docs.html#howto>, explains how to configure
  813. CSLIP. This won't enlarge your kernel.

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