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

45 | This is essentially a bit-bucket device (i.e. traffic you send to | |
46 | this device is consigned into oblivion) with a configurable IP | |
47 | address. It is most commonly used in order to make your currently | |
48 | inactive SLIP address seem like a real address for local programs. | |
49 | If you use SLIP or PPP, you might want to say Y here. Since this | |
50 | thing often comes in handy, the default is Y. It won't enlarge your | |
51 | kernel either. What a deal. Read about it in the Network | |

2736 | install a Linux distribution on a machine which doesn't have a | |
2737 | CD-ROM drive (a minimal system has to be transferred with floppies | |

2739 | enabled for this to work. | |
2740 | ||
2741 | The PLIP driver has two modes, mode 0 and mode 1. The parallel | |
2742 | ports (the connectors at the computers with 25 holes) are connected | |
2743 | with "null printer" or "Turbo Laplink" cables which can transmit 4 | |
2744 | bits at a time (mode 0) or with special PLIP cables, to be used on | |
2745 | bidirectional parallel ports only, which can transmit 8 bits at a | |
2746 | time (mode 1); you can find the wiring of these cables in | |
2747 | <file:Documentation/networking/PLIP.txt>. The cables can be up to | |
2748 | 15m long. Mode 0 works also if one of the machines runs DOS/Windows | |
2749 | and has some PLIP software installed, e.g. the Crynwr PLIP packet | |
2750 | driver (<http://oak.oakland.edu/simtel.net/msdos/pktdrvr-pre.html>) | |

2870 | The PPP Deflate compression method ("PPP Deflate compression", | |

2872 | and is patent-free. | |

2875 | module; it is called bsd_comp and will show up in the directory | |

2929 | Say Y if you intend to use SLIP or CSLIP (compressed SLIP) to | |
2930 | connect to your Internet service provider or to connect to some | |
2931 | other local Unix box or if you want to configure your Linux box as a | |
2932 | Slip/CSlip server for other people to dial in. SLIP (Serial Line | |
2933 | Internet Protocol) is a protocol used to send Internet traffic over | |
2934 | serial connections such as telephone lines or null modem cables; | |
2935 | nowadays, the protocol PPP is more commonly used for this same | |
2936 | purpose. | |
2937 | ||
2938 | Normally, your access provider has to support SLIP in order for you | |
2939 | to be able to use it, but there is now a SLIP emulator called SLiRP | |
2940 | around (available from | |
2941 | <ftp://ibiblio.org/pub/Linux/system/network/serial/>) which | |
2942 | allows you to use SLIP over a regular dial up shell connection. If | |
2943 | you plan to use SLiRP, make sure to say Y to CSLIP, below. The | |
2944 | NET-3-HOWTO, available from | |
2945 | <http://www.tldp.org/docs.html#howto>, explains how to | |
