  39. This is essentially a bit-bucket device (i.e. traffic you send to

  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

  108. TUN/TAP provides packet reception and transmission for user space

  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.

  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).
  175. If your Linux machine will be connected to an Ethernet and you have
  176. an Ethernet network interface card (NIC) installed in your computer,
  177. say Y here and read the Ethernet-HOWTO, available from
  178. <http://www.tldp.org/docs.html#howto>. You will then also have
  179. to say Y to the driver for your particular NIC.
  180. Note that the answer to this question won't directly affect the

  1102. ---help---
  1103. Say Y if you intend to use SLIP or CSLIP (compressed SLIP) to
  1104. connect to your Internet service provider or to connect to some
  1105. other local Unix box or if you want to configure your Linux box as a
  1106. Slip/CSlip server for other people to dial in. SLIP (Serial Line
  1107. Internet Protocol) is a protocol used to send Internet traffic over
  1108. serial connections such as telephone lines or null modem cables;
  1109. nowadays, the protocol PPP is more commonly used for this same
  1110. purpose.
  1111. Normally, your access provider has to support SLIP in order for you
  1112. to be able to use it, but there is now a SLIP emulator called SLiRP
  1113. around (available from
  1114. <ftp://ibiblio.org/pub/Linux/system/network/serial/>) which
  1115. allows you to use SLIP over a regular dial up shell connection. If
  1116. you plan to use SLiRP, make sure to say Y to CSLIP, below. The
  1117. NET-3-HOWTO, available from
  1118. <http://www.tldp.org/docs.html#howto>, explains how to
  1119. configure SLIP. Note that you don't need this option if you just
  1120. want to run term (term is a program which gives you almost full
  1121. Internet connectivity if you have a regular dial up shell account on
  1122. some Internet connected Unix computer. Read
  1123. <http://www.bart.nl/~patrickr/term-howto/Term-HOWTO.html>). SLIP
  1124. support will enlarge your kernel by about 4 KB. If unsure, say N.

  1126. will be called slip.

  1131. ---help---
  1132. This protocol is faster than SLIP because it uses compression on the
  1133. TCP/IP headers (not on the data itself), but it has to be supported
  1134. on both ends. Ask your access provider if you are not sure and
  1135. answer Y, just in case. You will still be able to use plain SLIP. If
  1136. you plan to use SLiRP, the SLIP emulator (available from
  1137. <ftp://ibiblio.org/pub/Linux/system/network/serial/>) which
  1138. allows you to use SLIP over a regular dial up shell connection, you
  1139. definitely want to say Y here. The NET-3-HOWTO, available from
  1140. <http://www.tldp.org/docs.html#howto>, explains how to configure
  1141. CSLIP. This won't enlarge your kernel.

  1157. help
  1158. Just occasionally you may need to run IP over hostile serial
  1159. networks that don't pass all control characters or are only seven
  1160. bit. Saying Y here adds an extra mode you can use with SLIP:
  1161. "slip6". In this mode, SLIP will only send normal ASCII symbols over
  1162. the serial device. Naturally, this has to be supported at the other
  1163. end of the link as well. It's good enough, for example, to run IP
  1164. over the async ports of a Camtec JNT Pad. If unsure, say N.

  1169. Fibre Channel is a high speed serial protocol mainly used to connect
  1170. large storage devices to the computer; it is compatible with and
  1171. intended to replace SCSI.
  1172. If you intend to use Fibre Channel, you need to have a Fibre channel
  1173. adaptor card in your computer; say Y here and to the driver for your
  1174. adaptor below. You also should have said Y to "SCSI support" and
  1175. "SCSI generic support".
