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. | |

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

2853 | ---help--- |
2854 | PLIP (Parallel Line Internet Protocol) is used to create a | |
2855 | reasonably fast mini network consisting of two (or, rarely, more) | |
2856 | local machines. A PLIP link from a Linux box is a popular means to | |
2857 | install a Linux distribution on a machine which doesn't have a | |
2858 | CD-ROM drive (a minimal system has to be transferred with floppies | |
2859 | first). The kernels on both machines need to have this PLIP option | |
2860 | enabled for this to work. | |
2861 | ||
2862 | The PLIP driver has two modes, mode 0 and mode 1. The parallel | |
2863 | ports (the connectors at the computers with 25 holes) are connected | |
2864 | with "null printer" or "Turbo Laplink" cables which can transmit 4 | |
2865 | bits at a time (mode 0) or with special PLIP cables, to be used on | |
2866 | bidirectional parallel ports only, which can transmit 8 bits at a | |
2867 | time (mode 1); you can find the wiring of these cables in | |
2868 | <file:Documentation/networking/PLIP.txt>. The cables can be up to | |
2869 | 15m long. Mode 0 works also if one of the machines runs DOS/Windows | |
2870 | and has some PLIP software installed, e.g. the Crynwr PLIP packet | |
2871 | driver (<http://oak.oakland.edu/simtel.net/msdos/pktdrvr-pre.html>) | |

2889 | PPP (Point to Point Protocol) is a newer and better SLIP. It serves | |
2890 | the same purpose: sending Internet traffic over telephone (and other | |

2892 | otherwise you can't use it; most Internet access providers these | |
2893 | days support PPP rather than SLIP. | |

2896 | in the PPP-HOWTO, available at | |

2902 | asynchronous lines, such as regular analog phone lines, and | |
2903 | synchronous PPP which can be used over digital ISDN lines for | |
2904 | example. If you want to use PPP over phone lines or other | |
2905 | asynchronous serial lines, you need to say Y (or M) here and also to | |
