 ## Network device configuration# menu "Network device support"	depends on NET config NETDEVICES	default y if UML	bool "Network device support"	---help---	  You can say N here if you don't intend to connect your Linux box to	  any other computer at all. 	  You'll have to say Y if your computer contains a network card that	  you want to use under Linux. If you are going to run SLIP or PPP over	  telephone line or null modem cable you need say Y here. Connecting	  two machines with parallel ports using PLIP needs this, as well as	  AX.25/KISS for sending Internet traffic over amateur radio links. 	  See also "The Linux Network Administrator's Guide" by Olaf Kirch and	  Terry Dawson. Available at <http://www.tldp.org/guides.html>. 	  If unsure, say Y.  config IFB	tristate "Intermediate Functional Block support"	depends on NET_CLS_ACT	---help---	  This is an intermidiate driver that allows sharing of	  resources.	  To compile this driver as a module, choose M here: the module	  will be called ifb.  If you want to use more than one ifb	  device at a time, you need to compile this driver as a module.	  Instead of 'ifb', the devices will then be called 'ifb0',	  'ifb1' etc.	  Look at the iproute2 documentation directory for usage etc config DUMMY	tristate "Dummy net driver support"	---help---	  This is essentially a bit-bucket device (i.e. traffic you send to	  this device is consigned into oblivion) with a configurable IP	  address. It is most commonly used in order to make your currently	  inactive SLIP address seem like a real address for local programs.	  If you use SLIP or PPP, you might want to say Y here. Since this	  thing often comes in handy, the default is Y. It won't enlarge your	  kernel either. What a deal. Read about it in the Network	  Administrator's Guide, available from	  <http://www.tldp.org/docs.html#guide>. 	  To compile this driver as a module, choose M here: the module	  will be called dummy.  If you want to use more than one dummy	  device at a time, you need to compile this driver as a module.	  Instead of 'dummy', the devices will then be called 'dummy0',	  'dummy1' etc. config BONDING	tristate "Bonding driver support"	depends on INET	---help---	  Say 'Y' or 'M' if you wish to be able to 'bond' multiple Ethernet	  Channels together. This is called 'Etherchannel' by Cisco,	  'Trunking' by Sun, 802.3ad by the IEEE, and 'Bonding' in Linux. 	  The driver supports multiple bonding modes to allow for both high	  performance and high availability operation. 	  Refer to <file:Documentation/networking/bonding.txt> for more	  information. 	  To compile this driver as a module, choose M here: the module	  will be called bonding. config EQUALIZER	tristate "EQL (serial line load balancing) support"	---help---	  If you have two serial connections to some other computer (this	  usually requires two modems and two telephone lines) and you use	  SLIP (the protocol for sending Internet traffic over telephone	  lines) or PPP (a better SLIP) on them, you can make them behave like	  one double speed connection using this driver.  Naturally, this has	  to be supported at the other end as well, either with a similar EQL	  Linux driver or with a Livingston Portmaster 2e. 	  Say Y if you want this and read	  <file:Documentation/networking/eql.txt>.  You may also want to read	  section 6.2 of the NET-3-HOWTO, available from	  <http://www.tldp.org/docs.html#howto>. 	  To compile this driver as a module, choose M here: the module	  will be called eql.  If unsure, say N. config TUN	tristate "Universal TUN/TAP device driver support"	select CRC32	---help---	  TUN/TAP provides packet reception and transmission for user space	  programs.  It can be viewed as a simple Point-to-Point or Ethernet	  device, which instead of receiving packets from a physical media,	  receives them from user space program and instead of sending packets	  via physical media writes them to the user space program. 	  When a program opens /dev/net/tun, driver creates and registers	  corresponding net device tunX or tapX.  After a program closed above	  devices, driver will automatically delete tunXX or tapXX device and	  all routes corresponding to it. 	  Please read <file:Documentation/networking/tuntap.txt> for more	  information. 	  To compile this driver as a module, choose M here: the module	  will be called tun. 	  If you don't know what to use this for, you don't need it. config NET_SB1000	tristate "General Instruments Surfboard 1000"	depends on PNP	---help---	  This is a driver for the General Instrument (also known as	  NextLevel) SURFboard 1000 internal	  cable modem. This is an ISA card which is used by a number of cable	  TV companies to provide cable modem access. It's a one-way	  downstream-only cable modem, meaning that your upstream net link is	  provided by your regular phone modem. 	  At present this driver only compiles as a module, so say M here if	  you have this card. The module will be called sb1000. Then read	  <file:Documentation/networking/README.sb1000> for information on how	  to use this module, as it needs special ppp scripts for establishing	  a connection. Further documentation and the necessary scripts can be	  found at: 	  <http://www.jacksonville.net/~fventuri/>	  <http://home.adelphia.net/~siglercm/sb1000.html>	  <http://linuxpower.cx/~cable/> 	  If you don't have this card, of course say N. source "drivers/net/arcnet/Kconfig" source "drivers/net/phy/Kconfig" ##	Ethernet# menu "Ethernet (10 or 100Mbit)"	depends on !UML config NET_ETHERNET	bool "Ethernet (10 or 100Mbit)"	---help---	  Ethernet (also called IEEE 802.3 or ISO 8802-2) is the most common	  type of Local Area Network (LAN) in universities and companies. 	  Common varieties of Ethernet are: 10BASE-2 or Thinnet (10 Mbps over	  coaxial cable, linking computers in a chain), 10BASE-T or twisted	  pair (10 Mbps over twisted pair cable, linking computers to central	  hubs), 10BASE-F (10 Mbps over optical fiber links, using hubs),	  100BASE-TX (100 Mbps over two twisted pair cables, using hubs),	  100BASE-T4 (100 Mbps over 4 standard voice-grade twisted pair	  cables, using hubs), 100BASE-FX (100 Mbps over optical fiber links)	  [the 100BASE varieties are also known as Fast Ethernet], and Gigabit	  Ethernet (1 Gbps over optical fiber or short copper links). 	  If your Linux machine will be connected to an Ethernet and you have	  an Ethernet network interface card (NIC) installed in your computer,	  say Y here and read the Ethernet-HOWTO, available from	  <http://www.tldp.org/docs.html#howto>. You will then also have	  to say Y to the driver for your particular NIC. 	  Note that the answer to this question won't directly affect the	  kernel: saying N will just cause the configurator to skip all	  the questions about Ethernet network cards. If unsure, say N. config MII	tristate "Generic Media Independent Interface device support"	depends on NET_ETHERNET	help	  Most ethernet controllers have MII transceiver either as an external	  or internal device.  It is safe to say Y or M here even if your	  ethernet card lack MII. source "drivers/net/arm/Kconfig" config MACE	tristate "MACE (Power Mac ethernet) support"	depends on NET_ETHERNET && PPC_PMAC && PPC32	select CRC32	help	  Power Macintoshes and clones with Ethernet built-in on the	  motherboard will usually use a MACE (Medium Access Control for	  Ethernet) interface. Say Y to include support for the MACE chip. 	  To compile this driver as a module, choose M here: the module	  will be called mace. config MACE_AAUI_PORT	bool "Use AAUI port instead of TP by default"	depends on MACE	help	  Some Apple machines (notably the Apple Network Server) which use the	  MACE ethernet chip have an Apple AUI port (small 15-pin connector),	  instead of an 8-pin RJ45 connector for twisted-pair ethernet.  Say	  Y here if you have such a machine.  If unsure, say N.	  The driver will default to AAUI on ANS anyway, and if you use it as	  a module, you can provide the port_aaui=0|1 to force the driver. config BMAC	tristate "BMAC (G3 ethernet) support"	depends on NET_ETHERNET && PPC_PMAC && PPC32	select CRC32	help	  Say Y for support of BMAC Ethernet interfaces. These are used on G3	  computers. 	  To compile this driver as a module, choose M here: the module	  will be called bmac. config OAKNET	tristate "National DP83902AV (Oak ethernet) support"	depends on NET_ETHERNET && PPC && BROKEN	select CRC32	help	  Say Y if your machine has this type of Ethernet network card.

If you have such a card, say Y.	  Otherwise, say N. 	  To compile this driver as a module, choose M here: the module	  will be called zorro8390. config APNE	tristate "PCMCIA NE2000 support"	depends on NET_ETHERNET && AMIGA_PCMCIA	select CRC32	help	  If you have a PCMCIA NE2000 compatible adapter, say Y.
