config NETDEVICES
	depends on NET
	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 DUMMY
	tristate "Dummy net driver support"
	depends on NETDEVICES
	---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 NETDEVICES
	---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, and 'Bonding' in Linux.

	  If you have two Ethernet connections to some other computer, 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 Bonding Linux driver, a Cisco 5500 switch or a
	  SunTrunking SunSoft driver.

	  This is similar to the EQL driver, but it merges Ethernet segments
	  instead of serial lines.

	  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"
	depends on NETDEVICES
	---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"
	depends on NETDEVICES
	---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 ETHERTAP
	tristate "Ethertap network tap"
	depends on NETDEVICES && EXPERIMENTAL && NETLINK_DEV
	---help---
	  If you say Y here (and have said Y to "Kernel/User network link
	  driver", above) and create a character special file /dev/tap0 with
	  major number 36 and minor number 16 using mknod ("man mknod"), you
	  will be able to have a user space program read and write raw
	  Ethernet frames from/to that special file.  tap0 can be configured
	  with ifconfig and route like any other Ethernet device but it is not
	  connected to any physical LAN; everything written by the user to
	  /dev/tap0 is treated by the kernel as if it had come in from a LAN
	  to the device tap0; everything the kernel wants to send out over the
	  device tap0 can instead be read by the user from /dev/tap0: the user
	  mode program replaces the LAN that would be attached to an ordinary
	  Ethernet device. Please read the file
	  <file:Documentation/networking/ethertap.txt> for more information.

	  To compile this driver as a module, choose M here: the module
	  will be called ethertap.

	  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 NETDEVICES && 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.

menu "Ethernet (10 or 100Mbit)"
	depends on NETDEVICES

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.

	  To compile this driver as a module, choose M here: the module
	  will be called oaknet.

config ARIADNE
	tristate "Ariadne support"
	depends on NET_ETHERNET && ZORRO
	help
	  If you have a Village Tronic Ariadne Ethernet adapter, say Y.
	  Otherwise, say N.

	  To compile this driver as a module, choose M here: the module
	  will be called ariadne.

config A2065
	tristate "A2065 support"
	depends on NET_ETHERNET && ZORRO
	select CRC32
	help
	  If you have a Commodore A2065 Ethernet adapter, say Y. Otherwise,
	  say N.

	  To compile this driver as a module, choose M here: the module
	  will be called a2065.

config HYDRA
	tristate "Hydra support"
	depends on NET_ETHERNET && ZORRO
	select CRC32
	help
	  If you have a Hydra Ethernet adapter, say Y. Otherwise, say N.

	  To compile this driver as a module, choose M here: the module
	  will be called hydra.

config ZORRO8390
	tristate "Zorro NS8390-based Ethernet support"
	depends on NET_ETHERNET && ZORRO
	select CRC32
	help
	  This driver is for Zorro Ethernet cards using an NS8390-compatible
	  chipset, like the Village Tronic Ariadne II and the Individual
	  Computers X-Surf Ethernet cards. 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.

	  say N.

	  To compile this driver as a module, choose M here: the module
	  will be called apne.

config APOLLO_ELPLUS
	tristate "Apollo 3c505 support"
	depends on NETDEVICES && APOLLO
	help
	  Say Y or M here if your Apollo has a 3Com 3c505 ISA Ethernet card.
	  If you don't have one made for Apollos, you can use one from a PC,
	  except that your Apollo won't be able to boot from it (because the
	  code in the ROM will be for a PC).

config MAC8390
	bool "Macintosh NS 8390 based ethernet cards"
	depends on NETDEVICES && MAC
	select CRC32
	help
	  If you want to include a driver to support Nubus or LC-PDS
	  Ethernet cards using an NS8390 chipset or its equivalent, say Y
	  and read the Ethernet-HOWTO, available from
