  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.
  18. See also "The Linux Network Administrator's Guide" by Olaf Kirch and
  19. Terry Dawson. Available at <http://www.tldp.org/guides.html>.

  28. This is an intermediate driver that allows sharing of
  29. resources.
  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',
  34. 'ifb1' etc.
  35. Look at the iproute2 documentation directory for usage etc

  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>.

  1507. The PLIP driver has two modes, mode 0 and mode 1. The parallel
  1508. ports (the connectors at the computers with 25 holes) are connected
  1509. with "null printer" or "Turbo Laplink" cables which can transmit 4
  1510. bits at a time (mode 0) or with special PLIP cables, to be used on

  1514. 15m long. Mode 0 works also if one of the machines runs DOS/Windows

  1531. PPP (Point to Point Protocol) is a newer and better SLIP. It serves
  1532. the same purpose: sending Internet traffic over telephone (and other

  1534. otherwise you can't use it; most Internet access providers these
