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

  30. To compile this driver as a module, choose M here: the module
  31. will be called ifb. If you want to use more than one ifb
  32. device at a time, you need to compile this driver as a module.
  33. Instead of 'ifb', the devices will then be called 'ifb0',

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

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

  73. Macvlan devices can be added using the "ip" command from the
  74. iproute2 package starting with the iproute2-2.6.23 release:

  82. This adds a specialized tap character device driver that is based
  83. on the MAC-VLAN network interface, called macvtap. A macvtap device
  84. can be added in the same way as a macvlan device, using 'type
  85. macvlan', and then be accessed through the tap user space interface.
  86. To compile this driver as a module, choose M here: the module

  91. If you have two serial connections to some other computer (this
  92. usually requires two modems and two telephone lines) and you use
  93. SLIP (the protocol for sending Internet traffic over telephone
  94. lines) or PPP (a better SLIP) on them, you can make them behave like
  95. one double speed connection using this driver. Naturally, this has
  96. to be supported at the other end as well, either with a similar EQL
  97. Linux driver or with a Livingston Portmaster 2e.
  98. Say Y if you want this and read
  99. <file:Documentation/networking/eql.txt>. You may also want to read
  100. section 6.2 of the NET-3-HOWTO, available from
  101. <http://www.tldp.org/docs.html#howto>.

  107. ---help---
  108. TUN/TAP provides packet reception and transmission for user space
  109. programs. It can be viewed as a simple Point-to-Point or Ethernet
  110. device, which instead of receiving packets from a physical media,
  111. receives them from user space program and instead of sending packets
  112. via physical media writes them to the user space program.
  113. When a program opens /dev/net/tun, driver creates and registers
  114. corresponding net device tunX or tapX. After a program closed above
  115. devices, driver will automatically delete tunXX or tapXX device and
  116. all routes corresponding to it.
  117. Please read <file:Documentation/networking/tuntap.txt> for more
  118. information.
  119. To compile this driver as a module, choose M here: the module
  120. will be called tun.

  132. This is a driver for the General Instrument (also known as
  133. NextLevel) SURFboard 1000 internal

  135. TV companies to provide cable modem access. It's a one-way
  136. downstream-only cable modem, meaning that your upstream net link is
  137. provided by your regular phone modem.
  138. At present this driver only compiles as a module, so say M here if
  139. you have this card. The module will be called sb1000. Then read
  140. <file:Documentation/networking/README.sb1000> for information on how
  141. to use this module, as it needs special ppp scripts for establishing
  142. a connection. Further documentation and the necessary scripts can be

  164. Ethernet (also called IEEE 802.3 or ISO 8802-2) is the most common
  165. type of Local Area Network (LAN) in universities and companies.
  166. Common varieties of Ethernet are: 10BASE-2 or Thinnet (10 Mbps over
  167. coaxial cable, linking computers in a chain), 10BASE-T or twisted
  168. pair (10 Mbps over twisted pair cable, linking computers to central
  169. hubs), 10BASE-F (10 Mbps over optical fiber links, using hubs),
  170. 100BASE-TX (100 Mbps over two twisted pair cables, using hubs),
  171. 100BASE-T4 (100 Mbps over 4 standard voice-grade twisted pair
  172. cables, using hubs), 100BASE-FX (100 Mbps over optical fiber links)
  173. [the 100BASE varieties are also known as Fast Ethernet], and Gigabit
  174. Ethernet (1 Gbps over optical fiber or short copper links).

  1096. PLIP (Parallel Line Internet Protocol) is used to create a
  1097. reasonably fast mini network consisting of two (or, rarely, more)
  1098. local machines. A PLIP link from a Linux box is a popular means to
  1099. install a Linux distribution on a machine which doesn't have a
  1100. CD-ROM drive (a minimal system has to be transferred with floppies
  1101. first). The kernels on both machines need to have this PLIP option
  1102. enabled for this to work.
  1103. The PLIP driver has two modes, mode 0 and mode 1. The parallel
  1104. ports (the connectors at the computers with 25 holes) are connected
  1105. with "null printer" or "Turbo Laplink" cables which can transmit 4
  1106. bits at a time (mode 0) or with special PLIP cables, to be used on
  1107. bidirectional parallel ports only, which can transmit 8 bits at a
  1108. time (mode 1); you can find the wiring of these cables in
  1109. <file:Documentation/networking/PLIP.txt>. The cables can be up to
  1110. 15m long. Mode 0 works also if one of the machines runs DOS/Windows
  1111. and has some PLIP software installed, e.g. the Crynwr PLIP packet
  1112. driver (<http://oak.oakland.edu/simtel.net/msdos/pktdrvr-pre.html>)
  1113. and winsock or NCSA's telnet.

  1115. as the NET-3-HOWTO, both available from
  1116. <http://www.tldp.org/docs.html#howto>. Note that the PLIP
  1117. protocol has been changed and this PLIP driver won't work together
  1118. with the PLIP support in Linux versions 1.0.x. This option enlarges
  1119. your kernel by about 8 KB.

  1127. PPP (Point to Point Protocol) is a newer and better SLIP. It serves
  1128. the same purpose: sending Internet traffic over telephone (and other
  1129. serial) lines. Ask your access provider if they support it, because
  1130. otherwise you can't use it; most Internet access providers these
  1131. days support PPP rather than SLIP.
  1132. To use PPP, you need an additional program called pppd as described
  1133. in the PPP-HOWTO, available at
  1134. <http://www.tldp.org/docs.html#howto>. Make sure that you have
  1135. the version of pppd recommended in <file:Documentation/Changes>.
  1136. The PPP option enlarges your kernel by about 16 KB.
  1137. There are actually two versions of PPP: the traditional PPP for
  1138. asynchronous lines, such as regular analog phone lines, and
  1139. synchronous PPP which can be used over digital ISDN lines for
  1140. example. If you want to use PPP over phone lines or other
  1141. asynchronous serial lines, you need to say Y (or M) here and also to
  1142. the next option, "PPP support for async serial ports". For PPP over
  1143. synchronous lines, you should say Y (or M) here and to "Support
  1144. synchronous PPP", below.
  1145. If you said Y to "Version information on all symbols" above, then
  1146. you cannot compile the PPP driver into the kernel; you can then only
