12 any other computer at all.

14 You'll have to say Y if your computer contains a network card that
15 you want to use under Linux. If you are going to run SLIP or PPP over
16 telephone line or null modem cable you need say Y here. Connecting
17 two machines with parallel ports using PLIP needs this, as well as
18 AX.25/KISS for sending Internet traffic over amateur radio links.

178 Ethernet (also called IEEE 802.3 or ISO 8802-2) is the most common
179 type of Local Area Network (LAN) in universities and companies.
180
181 Common varieties of Ethernet are: 10BASE-2 or Thinnet (10 Mbps over
182 coaxial cable, linking computers in a chain), 10BASE-T or twisted
183 pair (10 Mbps over twisted pair cable, linking computers to central
184 hubs), 10BASE-F (10 Mbps over optical fiber links, using hubs),
185 100BASE-TX (100 Mbps over two twisted pair cables, using hubs),
186 100BASE-T4 (100 Mbps over 4 standard voice-grade twisted pair
187 cables, using hubs), 100BASE-FX (100 Mbps over optical fiber links)
188 [the 100BASE varieties are also known as Fast Ethernet], and Gigabit
189 Ethernet (1 Gbps over optical fiber or short copper links).
190
191 If your Linux machine will be connected to an Ethernet and you have
192 an Ethernet network interface card (NIC) installed in your computer,
193 say Y here and read the Ethernet-HOWTO, available from

2706 PLIP (Parallel Line Internet Protocol) is used to create a
2707 reasonably fast mini network consisting of two (or, rarely, more)
2708 local machines. A PLIP link from a Linux box is a popular means to
2709 install a Linux distribution on a machine which doesn't have a
2710 CD-ROM drive (a minimal system has to be transferred with floppies
2711 first). The kernels on both machines need to have this PLIP option
2712 enabled for this to work.
2713
2714 The PLIP driver has two modes, mode 0 and mode 1. The parallel
2715 ports (the connectors at the computers with 25 holes) are connected
2716 with "null printer" or "Turbo Laplink" cables which can transmit 4
2717 bits at a time (mode 0) or with special PLIP cables, to be used on
2718 bidirectional parallel ports only, which can transmit 8 bits at a
2719 time (mode 1); you can find the wiring of these cables in
2720 <file:Documentation/networking/PLIP.txt>. The cables can be up to
2721 15m long. Mode 0 works also if one of the machines runs DOS/Windows
2722 and has some PLIP software installed, e.g. the Crynwr PLIP packet

2934 This protocol is faster than SLIP because it uses compression on the
2935 TCP/IP headers (not on the data itself), but it has to be supported
2936 on both ends. Ask your access provider if you are not sure and
2937 answer Y, just in case. You will still be able to use plain SLIP. If
2938 you plan to use SLiRP, the SLIP emulator (available from
2939 <ftp://ibiblio.org/pub/Linux/system/network/serial/>) which
2940 allows you to use SLIP over a regular dial up shell connection, you
2941 definitely want to say Y here. The NET-3-HOWTO, available from
2942 <http://www.tldp.org/docs.html#howto>, explains how to configure
2943 CSLIP. This won't enlarge your kernel.

2962 help
2963 Just occasionally you may need to run IP over hostile serial
2964 networks that don't pass all control characters or are only seven
2965 bit. Saying Y here adds an extra mode you can use with SLIP:
2966 "slip6". In this mode, SLIP will only send normal ASCII symbols over
2967 the serial device. Naturally, this has to be supported at the other
2968 end of the link as well. It's good enough, for example, to run IP
2969 over the async ports of a Camtec JNT Pad. If unsure, say N.

2975 Fibre Channel is a high speed serial protocol mainly used to connect
2976 large storage devices to the computer; it is compatible with and
2977 intended to replace SCSI.
2978
2979 If you intend to use Fibre Channel, you need to have a Fibre channel
2980 adaptor card in your computer; say Y here and to the driver for your
2981 adaptor below. You also should have said Y to "SCSI support" and
2982 "SCSI generic support".
