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

- inactive SLIP address seem like a real address for local programs.
- If you use SLIP or PPP, you might want to say Y here. Since this

- To compile this driver as a module, choose M here: the module

- When a program opens /dev/net/tun, driver creates and registers
- corresponding net device tunX or tapX. After a program closed above

- downstream-only cable modem, meaning that your upstream net link is
- provided by your regular phone modem.
- At present this driver only compiles as a module, so say M here if

- config PPP_MULTILINK
- bool "PPP multilink support (EXPERIMENTAL)"
- depends on PPP && EXPERIMENTAL
- help
- PPP multilink is a protocol (defined in RFC 1990) which allows you
- to combine several (logical or physical) lines into one logical PPP
- connection, so that you can utilize your full bandwidth.
- This has to be supported at the other end as well and you need a
- version of the pppd daemon which understands the multilink protocol.
- If unsure, say N.
- config PPP_FILTER
- bool "PPP filtering"
- depends on PPP
- help
- Say Y here if you want to be able to filter the packets passing over
- PPP interfaces. This allows you to control which packets count as
- activity (i.e. which packets will reset the idle timer or bring up
- a demand-dialled link) and which packets are to be dropped entirely.
- You need to say Y here if you wish to use the pass-filter and
- active-filter options to pppd.
- If unsure, say N.
- config PPP_ASYNC
- tristate "PPP support for async serial ports"
- depends on PPP
- select CRC_CCITT
- ---help---
- Say Y (or M) here if you want to be able to use PPP over standard
- asynchronous serial ports, such as COM1 or COM2 on a PC. If you use
- a modem (not a synchronous or ISDN modem) to contact your ISP, you
- need this option.
- To compile this driver as a module, choose M here.
- If unsure, say Y.
- config PPP_SYNC_TTY
- tristate "PPP support for sync tty ports"
- depends on PPP
- help
- Say Y (or M) here if you want to be able to use PPP over synchronous
- (HDLC) tty devices, such as the SyncLink adapter. These devices
- are often used for high-speed leased lines like T1/E1.
- To compile this driver as a module, choose M here.
- config PPP_DEFLATE
- tristate "PPP Deflate compression"
- depends on PPP
- select ZLIB_INFLATE
- select ZLIB_DEFLATE
- ---help---
- Support for the Deflate compression method for PPP, which uses the
- Deflate algorithm (the same algorithm that gzip uses) to compress
- each PPP packet before it is sent over the wire. The machine at the
- other end of the PPP link (usually your ISP) has to support the
- Deflate compression method as well for this to be useful. Even if
- they don't support it, it is safe to say Y here.
- To compile this driver as a module, choose M here.
- config PPP_BSDCOMP
- tristate "PPP BSD-Compress compression"
- depends on PPP
- ---help---
- Support for the BSD-Compress compression method for PPP, which uses
- the LZW compression method to compress each PPP packet before it is
- sent over the wire. The machine at the other end of the PPP link
- (usually your ISP) has to support the BSD-Compress compression
- method as well for this to be useful. Even if they don't support it,
- it is safe to say Y here.
- The PPP Deflate compression method ("PPP Deflate compression",
- above) is preferable to BSD-Compress, because it compresses better
- and is patent-free.
- Note that the BSD compression code will always be compiled as a
- module; it is called bsd_comp and will show up in the directory
- modules once you have said "make modules". If unsure, say N.
- config PPPOE
- tristate "PPP over Ethernet (EXPERIMENTAL)"
- depends on EXPERIMENTAL && PPP
- help
- Support for PPP over Ethernet.
- This driver requires the latest version of pppd from the CVS
- repository at cvs.samba.org. Alternatively, see the
- RoaringPenguin package (<http://www.roaringpenguin.com/pppoe>)
- which contains instruction on how to use this driver (under
- the heading "Kernel mode PPPoE").
- config PPPOATM
- tristate "PPP over ATM"
- depends on ATM && PPP
- help
- Support PPP (Point to Point Protocol) encapsulated in ATM frames.
- This implementation does not yet comply with section 8 of RFC2364,
- which can lead to bad results if the ATM peer loses state and
- changes its encapsulation unilaterally.
- config SLIP
- tristate "SLIP (serial line) support"
- ---help---
- 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.
- To compile this driver as a module, choose M here and read
- <file:Documentation/networking/net-modules.txt>. The module will be
- called slip.
- config SLIP_COMPRESSED
- bool "CSLIP compressed headers"
- depends on SLIP
- ---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
- definitely want to say Y here. The NET-3-HOWTO, available from
- <http://www.tldp.org/docs.html#howto>, explains how to configure
- CSLIP. This won't enlarge your kernel.
- config SLIP_SMART
- bool "Keepalive and linefill"
- depends on SLIP
- help
- Adds additional capabilities to the SLIP driver to support the
- RELCOM line fill and keepalive monitoring. Ideal on poor quality
- analogue lines.
- config SLIP_MODE_SLIP6
- bool "Six bit SLIP encapsulation"
- depends on SLIP
- help
- 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.
- config NET_FC
- bool "Fibre Channel driver support"
- depends on SCSI && PCI
- help
- Fibre Channel is a high speed serial protocol mainly used to connect
- large storage devices to the computer; it is compatible with and
- intended to replace SCSI.
- If you intend to use Fibre Channel, you need to have a Fibre channel
- adaptor card in your computer; say Y here and to the driver for your
- adaptor below. You also should have said Y to "SCSI support" and
- "SCSI generic support".
- config SHAPER
- tristate "Traffic Shaper (EXPERIMENTAL)"
- depends on EXPERIMENTAL
- ---help---
- The traffic shaper is a virtual network device that allows you to
- limit the rate of outgoing data flow over some other network device.
- The traffic that you want to slow down can then be routed through
- these virtual devices. See
- <file:Documentation/networking/shaper.txt> for more information.
- An alternative to this traffic shaper is the experimental
- Class-Based Queueing (CBQ) scheduling support which you get if you
- say Y to "QoS and/or fair queueing" above.
- To set up and configure shaper devices, you need the shapecfg
- program, available from <ftp://shadow.cabi.net/pub/Linux/> in the
- shaper package.
- To compile this driver as a module, choose M here: the module
- will be called shaper. If unsure, say N.
