51 If you use SLIP or PPP, you might want to say Y here. Since this
52 thing often comes in handy, the default is Y. It won't enlarge your

135 via physical media writes them to the user space program.

164 TV companies to provide cable modem access. It's a one-way
165 downstream-only cable modem, meaning that your upstream net link is
166 provided by your regular phone modem.

169 you have this card. The module will be called sb1000. Then read

200 Ethernet (also called IEEE 802.3 or ISO 8802-2) is the most common
201 type of Local Area Network (LAN) in universities and companies.

203 Common varieties of Ethernet are: 10BASE-2 or Thinnet (10 Mbps over
204 coaxial cable, linking computers in a chain), 10BASE-T or twisted
205 pair (10 Mbps over twisted pair cable, linking computers to central
206 hubs), 10BASE-F (10 Mbps over optical fiber links, using hubs),
207 100BASE-TX (100 Mbps over two twisted pair cables, using hubs),
208 100BASE-T4 (100 Mbps over 4 standard voice-grade twisted pair
209 cables, using hubs), 100BASE-FX (100 Mbps over optical fiber links)
210 [the 100BASE varieties are also known as Fast Ethernet], and Gigabit
211 Ethernet (1 Gbps over optical fiber or short copper links).

3123 install a Linux distribution on a machine which doesn't have a
3124 CD-ROM drive (a minimal system has to be transferred with floppies
3125 first). The kernels on both machines need to have this PLIP option
3126 enabled for this to work.
3127
3128 The PLIP driver has two modes, mode 0 and mode 1. The parallel
3129 ports (the connectors at the computers with 25 holes) are connected
3130 with "null printer" or "Turbo Laplink" cables which can transmit 4
3131 bits at a time (mode 0) or with special PLIP cables, to be used on
3132 bidirectional parallel ports only, which can transmit 8 bits at a
3133 time (mode 1); you can find the wiring of these cables in
3134 <file:Documentation/networking/PLIP.txt>. The cables can be up to
3135 15m long. Mode 0 works also if one of the machines runs DOS/Windows
3136 and has some PLIP software installed, e.g. the Crynwr PLIP packet
3137 driver (<http://oak.oakland.edu/simtel.net/msdos/pktdrvr-pre.html>)

3155 PPP (Point to Point Protocol) is a newer and better SLIP. It serves

3158 otherwise you can't use it; most Internet access providers these
3159 days support PPP rather than SLIP.

3237 Support for the Deflate compression method for PPP, which uses the
3238 Deflate algorithm (the same algorithm that gzip uses) to compress
3239 each PPP packet before it is sent over the wire. The machine at the
3240 other end of the PPP link (usually your ISP) has to support the
3241 Deflate compression method as well for this to be useful. Even if
3242 they don't support it, it is safe to say Y here.

3249 ---help---
3250 Support for the BSD-Compress compression method for PPP, which uses
3251 the LZW compression method to compress each PPP packet before it is
3252 sent over the wire. The machine at the other end of the PPP link
3253 (usually your ISP) has to support the BSD-Compress compression
3254 method as well for this to be useful. Even if they don't support it,
3255 it is safe to say Y here.
3256
3257 The PPP Deflate compression method ("PPP Deflate compression",
3258 above) is preferable to BSD-Compress, because it compresses better
3259 and is patent-free.
3260
3261 Note that the BSD compression code will always be compiled as a
3262 module; it is called bsd_comp and will show up in the directory
3263 modules once you have said "make modules". If unsure, say N.

3319 config SLIP
3320 tristate "SLIP (serial line) support"
3321 ---help---
3322 Say Y if you intend to use SLIP or CSLIP (compressed SLIP) to
3323 connect to your Internet service provider or to connect to some
3324 other local Unix box or if you want to configure your Linux box as a
3325 Slip/CSlip server for other people to dial in. SLIP (Serial Line
3326 Internet Protocol) is a protocol used to send Internet traffic over
3327 serial connections such as telephone lines or null modem cables;
3328 nowadays, the protocol PPP is more commonly used for this same
3329 purpose.
3330
3331 Normally, your access provider has to support SLIP in order for you
3332 to be able to use it, but there is now a SLIP emulator called SLiRP
3333 around (available from
3334 <ftp://ibiblio.org/pub/Linux/system/network/serial/>) which
3335 allows you to use SLIP over a regular dial up shell connection. If
3336 you plan to use SLiRP, make sure to say Y to CSLIP, below. The
3337 NET-3-HOWTO, available from
3338 <http://www.tldp.org/docs.html#howto>, explains how to
3339 configure SLIP. Note that you don't need this option if you just
3340 want to run term (term is a program which gives you almost full
3341 Internet connectivity if you have a regular dial up shell account on
3342 some Internet connected Unix computer. Read
3343 <http://www.bart.nl/~patrickr/term-howto/Term-HOWTO.html>). SLIP
3344 support will enlarge your kernel by about 4 KB. If unsure, say N.

3347 will be called slip.

3353 ---help---
3354 This protocol is faster than SLIP because it uses compression on the
3355 TCP/IP headers (not on the data itself), but it has to be supported
3356 on both ends. Ask your access provider if you are not sure and
3357 answer Y, just in case. You will still be able to use plain SLIP. If
3358 you plan to use SLiRP, the SLIP emulator (available from
3359 <ftp://ibiblio.org/pub/Linux/system/network/serial/>) which
3360 allows you to use SLIP over a regular dial up shell connection, you
3361 definitely want to say Y here. The NET-3-HOWTO, available from
3362 <http://www.tldp.org/docs.html#howto>, explains how to configure
3363 CSLIP. This won't enlarge your kernel.

3382 help
3383 Just occasionally you may need to run IP over hostile serial
3384 networks that don't pass all control characters or are only seven
3385 bit. Saying Y here adds an extra mode you can use with SLIP:
3386 "slip6". In this mode, SLIP will only send normal ASCII symbols over
3387 the serial device. Naturally, this has to be supported at the other
3388 end of the link as well. It's good enough, for example, to run IP
3389 over the async ports of a Camtec JNT Pad. If unsure, say N.
