11 | You can say N here if you don't intend to connect your Linux box to | |
12 | any other computer at all. | |
13 | ||
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. | |

21 | Terry Dawson. Available at <http://www.tldp.org/guides.html>. | |

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

55 | address. It is most commonly used in order to make your currently | |
56 | inactive SLIP address seem like a real address for local programs. | |
57 | If you use SLIP or PPP, you might want to say Y here. Since this | |
58 | thing often comes in handy, the default is Y. It won't enlarge your | |
59 | kernel either. What a deal. Read about it in the Network | |

2828 | PLIP (Parallel Line Internet Protocol) is used to create a | |
2829 | reasonably fast mini network consisting of two (or, rarely, more) | |
2830 | local machines. A PLIP link from a Linux box is a popular means to | |
2831 | install a Linux distribution on a machine which doesn't have a | |
2832 | CD-ROM drive (a minimal system has to be transferred with floppies | |
2833 | first). The kernels on both machines need to have this PLIP option | |
2834 | enabled for this to work. | |
2835 | ||
2836 | The PLIP driver has two modes, mode 0 and mode 1. The parallel | |
2837 | ports (the connectors at the computers with 25 holes) are connected | |
2838 | with "null printer" or "Turbo Laplink" cables which can transmit 4 | |
2839 | bits at a time (mode 0) or with special PLIP cables, to be used on | |
2840 | bidirectional parallel ports only, which can transmit 8 bits at a | |
2841 | time (mode 1); you can find the wiring of these cables in | |
2842 | <file:Documentation/networking/PLIP.txt>. The cables can be up to | |
2843 | 15m long. Mode 0 works also if one of the machines runs DOS/Windows | |
2844 | and has some PLIP software installed, e.g. the Crynwr PLIP packet | |
2845 | driver (<http://oak.oakland.edu/simtel.net/msdos/pktdrvr-pre.html>) | |
2846 | and winsock or NCSA's telnet. | |
2847 | ||
2848 | If you want to use PLIP, say Y and read the PLIP mini-HOWTO as well | |
2849 | as the NET-3-HOWTO, both available from | |
2850 | <http://www.tldp.org/docs.html#howto>. Note that the PLIP | |
2851 | protocol has been changed and this PLIP driver won't work together | |
2852 | with the PLIP support in Linux versions 1.0.x. This option enlarges | |
2853 | your kernel by about 8 KB. | |

2862 | ---help--- |
2863 | PPP (Point to Point Protocol) is a newer and better SLIP. It serves | |
2864 | the same purpose: sending Internet traffic over telephone (and other | |
2865 | serial) lines. Ask your access provider if they support it, because | |
2866 | otherwise you can't use it; most Internet access providers these | |
2867 | days support PPP rather than SLIP. | |
2868 | ||
2869 | To use PPP, you need an additional program called pppd as described | |
2870 | in the PPP-HOWTO, available at | |
2871 | <http://www.tldp.org/docs.html#howto>. Make sure that you have | |
2872 | the version of pppd recommended in <file:Documentation/Changes>. | |
2873 | The PPP option enlarges your kernel by about 16 KB. | |
2874 | ||
2875 | There are actually two versions of PPP: the traditional PPP for | |
2876 | asynchronous lines, such as regular analog phone lines, and | |
2877 | synchronous PPP which can be used over digital ISDN lines for | |
2878 | example. If you want to use PPP over phone lines or other | |
2879 | asynchronous serial lines, you need to say Y (or M) here and also to | |
2880 | the next option, "PPP support for async serial ports". For PPP over | |
2881 | synchronous lines, you should say Y (or M) here and to "Support | |
2882 | synchronous PPP", below. | |
2883 | ||
2884 | If you said Y to "Version information on all symbols" above, then | |
2885 | you cannot compile the PPP driver into the kernel; you can then only | |
2886 | compile it as a module. To compile this driver as a module, choose M | |
57ce45dd | 2887 | here. The module will be called ppp_generic. |
