6 bool "Wan interfaces support"
8 Wide Area Networks (WANs), such as X.25, Frame Relay and leased
9 lines, are used to interconnect Local Area Networks (LANs) over vast
10 distances with data transfer rates significantly higher than those
11 achievable with commonly used asynchronous modem connections.
13 Usually, a quite expensive external device called a `WAN router' is
14 needed to connect to a WAN. As an alternative, a relatively
15 inexpensive WAN interface card can allow your Linux box to directly

284 FarSite Communications Ltd.
286 Synchronous communication is supported on all ports at speeds up to
287 8Mb/s (128K on V.24) using synchronous PPP, Cisco HDLC, raw HDLC,
288 Frame Relay or X.25/LAPB.
290 If you want the module to be automatically loaded when the interface
291 is referenced then you should add "alias hdlcX farsync" to
292 /etc/modprobe.conf for each interface, where X is 0, 1, 2, ..., or
293 simply use "alias hdlc* farsync" to indicate all of them.

309 To compile this driver as a module, choose M here: the
310 module will be called dscc4.
313 bool "Etinc PCISYNC features"
316 Due to Etinc's design choice for its PCISYNC cards, some operations
317 are only allowed on specific ports of the DSCC4. This option is the
318 only way for the driver to know that it shouldn't return a success
319 code for these operations.
321 Please say Y if your card is an Etinc's PCISYNC.
324 bool "Hard reset support"
327 Various DSCC4 bugs forbid any reliable software reset of the ASIC.
328 As a replacement, some vendors provide a way to assert the PCI #RST
329 pin of DSCC4 through the GPIO port of the card. If you choose Y,
330 the driver will make use of this feature before module removal
331 (i.e. rmmod). The feature is known to be available on Commtech's
332 cards. Contact your manufacturer for details.
334 Say Y if your card supports this feature.
337 tristate "Frame Relay DLCI support"
339 Support for the Frame Relay protocol.
341 Frame Relay is a fast low-cost way to connect to a remote Internet
342 access provider or to form a private wide area network. The one
343 physical line from your box to the local "switch" (i.e. the entry
344 point to the Frame Relay network, usually at the phone company) can
345 carry several logical point-to-point connections to other computers
346 connected to the Frame Relay network. For a general explanation of
347 the protocol, check out <http://www.mplsforum.org/>.
349 To use frame relay, you need supporting hardware (called FRAD) and
350 certain programs from the net-tools package as explained in
351 <file:Documentation/networking/framerelay.txt>.
353 To compile this driver as a module, choose M here: the
354 module will be called dlci.
357 int "Max DLCI per device"

362 identifiers of which are called DCLIs) should be handled by each
363 of your hardware frame relay access devices.

369 depends on DLCI && ISA
371 Driver for the Sangoma S502A, S502E, and S508 Frame Relay Access
374 These are multi-protocol cards, but only Frame Relay is supported
375 by the driver at this time. Please read
376 <file:Documentation/networking/framerelay.txt>.
378 To compile this driver as a module, choose M here: the
379 module will be called sdla.

388 Select driver your card and remember to say Y to "Wan Router."
389 You will need the wan-tools package which is available from
390 <ftp://ftp.sangoma.com/>.
392 Note that the answer to this question won't directly affect the
393 kernel except for how subordinate drivers may be built:
394 saying N will just cause the configurator to skip all
395 the questions about WAN router drivers.
400 tristate "Cyclom 2X(tm) cards (EXPERIMENTAL)"
401 depends on WAN_ROUTER_DRIVERS && (PCI || ISA)
403 Cyclom 2X from Cyclades Corporation <http://www.cyclades.com/> is an
404 intelligent multiprotocol WAN adapter with data transfer rates up to
405 512 Kbps. These cards support the X.25 and SNA related protocols.
407 While no documentation is available at this time please grab the
409 <http://www.conectiva.com.br/~acme/cycsyn-devel/> (with minor changes
410 to make it compile with the current wanrouter include files; efforts
411 are being made to use the original package available at
412 <ftp://ftp.sangoma.com/>).
414 Feel free to contact me or the cycsyn-devel mailing list at
415 <acme@conectiva.com.br> and <cycsyn-devel@bazar.conectiva.com.br> for
416 additional details, I hope to have documentation available as soon as
417 possible. (Cyclades Brazil is writing the Documentation).
419 The next questions will ask you about the protocols you want the
420 driver to support (for now only X.25 is supported).
422 If you have one or more of these cards, say Y to this option.
424 To compile this driver as a module, choose M here: the
425 module will be called cyclomx.
428 bool "Cyclom 2X X.25 support (EXPERIMENTAL)"
429 depends on CYCLADES_SYNC

437 tristate "LAPB over Ethernet driver (EXPERIMENTAL)"
438 depends on LAPB && X25
440 Driver for a pseudo device (typically called /dev/lapb0) which allows
441 you to open an LAPB point-to-point connection to some other computer
442 on your Ethernet network.
444 In order to do this, you need to say Y or M to the driver for your
445 Ethernet card as well as to "LAPB Data Link Driver".
447 To compile this driver as a module, choose M here: the
448 module will be called lapbether.
