5 # IPv6 as module will cause a CRASH if you try to unload it
7 tristate "The IPv6 protocol"
10 This is complemental support for the IP version 6.
11 You will still be able to do traditional IPv4 networking as well.
13 For general information about IPv6, see
14 <http://playground.sun.com/pub/ipng/html/ipng-main.html>.
15 For Linux IPv6 development information, see <http://www.linux-ipv6.org>.
16 For specific information about IPv6 under Linux, read the HOWTO at
17 <http://www.bieringer.de/linux/IPv6/>.
19 To compile this protocol support as a module, choose M here: the
20 module will be called ipv6.
23 bool "IPv6: Privacy Extensions support"
26 Privacy Extensions for Stateless Address Autoconfiguration in IPv6
27 support. With this option, additional periodically-alter
28 pseudo-random global-scope unicast address(es) will assigned to
31 We use our standard pseudo random algorithm to generate randomized
32 interface identifier, instead of one described in RFC 3041.
34 By default, kernel do not generate temporary addresses.
35 To use temporary addresses, do
37 echo 2 >/proc/sys/net/ipv6/conf/all/use_tempaddr
39 See <file:Documentation/networking/ip-sysctl.txt> for details.
41 config IPV6_ROUTER_PREF
42 bool "IPv6: Router Preference (RFC 4191) support"
45 Router Preference is an optional extension to the Router
46 Advertisement message to improve the ability of hosts
47 to pick more appropriate router, especially when the hosts
48 is placed in a multi-homed network.
52 config IPV6_ROUTE_INFO
53 bool "IPv6: Route Information (RFC 4191) support (EXPERIMENTAL)"
54 depends on IPV6_ROUTER_PREF && EXPERIMENTAL
56 This is experimental support of Route Information.
61 tristate "IPv6: AH transformation"
74 tristate "IPv6: ESP transformation"
83 Support for IPsec ESP.
88 tristate "IPv6: IPComp transformation"
91 select INET6_XFRM_TUNNEL
95 Support for IP Payload Compression Protocol (IPComp) (RFC3173),
96 typically needed for IPsec.
100 config INET6_XFRM_TUNNEL
110 tristate "IPv6: IPv6-in-IPv6 tunnel"
114 Support for IPv6-in-IPv6 tunnels described in RFC 2473.
