  4. menuconfig NETDEVICES
  5. default y if UML
  6. depends on NET
  7. bool "Network device support"
  8. ---help---
  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.
  16. See also "The Linux Network Administrator's Guide" by Olaf Kirch and
  17. Terry Dawson. Available at <http://www.tldp.org/guides.html>.
  18. If unsure, say Y.
  19. # All the following symbols are dependent on NETDEVICES - do not repeat
  20. # that for each of the symbols.
  21. if NETDEVICES
  22. config NETDEVICES_MULTIQUEUE
  23. bool "Netdevice multiple hardware queue support"
  24. ---help---
  25. Say Y here if you want to allow the network stack to use multiple
  26. hardware TX queues on an ethernet device.
  27. Most people will say N here.
  28. config IFB
  29. tristate "Intermediate Functional Block support"
  30. depends on NET_CLS_ACT
  31. ---help---
  32. This is an intermediate driver that allows sharing of
  33. resources.
  34. To compile this driver as a module, choose M here: the module
  35. will be called ifb. If you want to use more than one ifb
  36. device at a time, you need to compile this driver as a module.
  37. Instead of 'ifb', the devices will then be called 'ifb0',
  38. 'ifb1' etc.
  39. Look at the iproute2 documentation directory for usage etc
  40. config DUMMY
  41. tristate "Dummy net driver support"
  42. ---help---
  43. This is essentially a bit-bucket device (i.e. traffic you send to
  44. this device is consigned into oblivion) with a configurable IP
  45. address. It is most commonly used in order to make your currently
  46. inactive SLIP address seem like a real address for local programs.
  47. If you use SLIP or PPP, you might want to say Y here. Since this
  48. thing often comes in handy, the default is Y. It won't enlarge your
  49. kernel either. What a deal. Read about it in the Network
  50. Administrator's Guide, available from
  51. <http://www.tldp.org/docs.html#guide>.
  52. To compile this driver as a module, choose M here: the module
  53. will be called dummy. If you want to use more than one dummy
  54. device at a time, you need to compile this driver as a module.
  55. Instead of 'dummy', the devices will then be called 'dummy0',
  56. 'dummy1' etc.
  57. config BONDING
  58. tristate "Bonding driver support"
  59. depends on INET
  60. ---help---
  61. Say 'Y' or 'M' if you wish to be able to 'bond' multiple Ethernet
  62. Channels together. This is called 'Etherchannel' by Cisco,
  63. 'Trunking' by Sun, 802.3ad by the IEEE, and 'Bonding' in Linux.
  64. The driver supports multiple bonding modes to allow for both high
  65. performance and high availability operation.
  66. Refer to <file:Documentation/networking/bonding.txt> for more
  67. information.
  68. To compile this driver as a module, choose M here: the module
  69. will be called bonding.
  70. config MACVLAN
  71. tristate "MAC-VLAN support (EXPERIMENTAL)"
  72. depends on EXPERIMENTAL
  73. ---help---
  74. This allows one to create virtual interfaces that map packets to
  75. or from specific MAC addresses to a particular interface.
  76. To compile this driver as a module, choose M here: the module
  77. will be called macvlan.
  78. config EQUALIZER
  79. tristate "EQL (serial line load balancing) support"
  80. ---help---
  81. If you have two serial connections to some other computer (this
  82. usually requires two modems and two telephone lines) and you use
  83. SLIP (the protocol for sending Internet traffic over telephone
  84. lines) or PPP (a better SLIP) on them, you can make them behave like
  85. one double speed connection using this driver. Naturally, this has
  86. to be supported at the other end as well, either with a similar EQL
  87. Linux driver or with a Livingston Portmaster 2e.
  88. Say Y if you want this and read
  89. <file:Documentation/networking/eql.txt>. You may also want to read
  90. section 6.2 of the NET-3-HOWTO, available from
  91. <http://www.tldp.org/docs.html#howto>.
  92. To compile this driver as a module, choose M here: the module
  93. will be called eql. If unsure, say N.
  94. config TUN
  95. tristate "Universal TUN/TAP device driver support"
  96. select CRC32
  97. ---help---
  98. TUN/TAP provides packet reception and transmission for user space
  99. programs. It can be viewed as a simple Point-to-Point or Ethernet
  100. device, which instead of receiving packets from a physical media,
  101. receives them from user space program and instead of sending packets
  102. via physical media writes them to the user space program.
  103. When a program opens /dev/net/tun, driver creates and registers
  104. corresponding net device tunX or tapX. After a program closed above
  105. devices, driver will automatically delete tunXX or tapXX device and
  106. all routes corresponding to it.

  2338. The PLIP driver has two modes, mode 0 and mode 1. The parallel
  2339. ports (the connectors at the computers with 25 holes) are connected
  2340. with "null printer" or "Turbo Laplink" cables which can transmit 4
  2341. bits at a time (mode 0) or with special PLIP cables, to be used on

  2362. PPP (Point to Point Protocol) is a newer and better SLIP. It serves
  2363. the same purpose: sending Internet traffic over telephone (and other

  2365. otherwise you can't use it; most Internet access providers these
