tristate "PPP (point-to-point protocol) support"
|
||||
select SLHC
|
||||
---help---
|
||||
PPP (Point to Point Protocol) is a newer and better SLIP. It serves
|
||||
the same purpose: sending Internet traffic over telephone (and other
|
||||
serial) lines. Ask your access provider if they support it, because
|
||||
otherwise you can't use it; most Internet access providers these
|
||||
days support PPP rather than SLIP.
|
||||
|
||||
To use PPP, you need an additional program called pppd as described
|
||||
in the PPP-HOWTO, available at
|
||||
<http://www.tldp.org/docs.html#howto>. Make sure that you have
|
||||
the version of pppd recommended in <file:Documentation/Changes>.
|
||||
The PPP option enlarges your kernel by about 16 KB.
|
||||
|
||||
There are actually two versions of PPP: the traditional PPP for
|
||||
asynchronous lines, such as regular analog phone lines, and
|
||||
synchronous PPP which can be used over digital ISDN lines for
|
||||
example. If you want to use PPP over phone lines or other
|
||||
asynchronous serial lines, you need to say Y (or M) here and also to
|
||||
the next option, "PPP support for async serial ports". For PPP over
|
||||
synchronous lines, you should say Y (or M) here and to "Support
|
||||
synchronous PPP", below.
|
||||
|
||||
If you said Y to "Version information on all symbols" above, then
|
||||
you cannot compile the PPP driver into the kernel; you can then only
|
||||
compile it as a module. To compile this driver as a module, choose M
|
||||
here. The module will be called ppp_generic.

config PPP_BSDCOMP
|
||||
tristate "PPP BSD-Compress compression"
|
||||
depends on PPP
|
||||
---help---
|
||||
Support for the BSD-Compress compression method for PPP, which uses
|
||||
the LZW compression method to compress each PPP packet before it is
|
||||
sent over the wire. The machine at the other end of the PPP link
|
||||
(usually your ISP) has to support the BSD-Compress compression
|
||||
method as well for this to be useful. Even if they don't support it,
|
||||
it is safe to say Y here.
|
||||
|
||||
The PPP Deflate compression method ("PPP Deflate compression",
|
||||
above) is preferable to BSD-Compress, because it compresses better
|
||||
and is patent-free.
|
||||
|
||||
Note that the BSD compression code will always be compiled as a
|
||||
module; it is called bsd_comp and will show up in the directory
|
||||
modules once you have said "make modules". If unsure, say N.

---help---
|

Support for the Deflate compression method for PPP, which uses the
|

Deflate algorithm (the same algorithm that gzip uses) to compress
|
||||
each PPP packet before it is sent over the wire. The machine at the
|
||||
other end of the PPP link (usually your ISP) has to support the
|

Deflate compression method as well for this to be useful. Even if

config PPP_FILTER

bool "PPP filtering"
|
||||
depends on PPP
|
||||
---help---
|
||||
Say Y here if you want to be able to filter the packets passing over
|
||||
PPP interfaces. This allows you to control which packets count as
|
||||
activity (i.e. which packets will reset the idle timer or bring up
|
||||
a demand-dialed link) and which packets are to be dropped entirely.
|
||||
You need to say Y here if you wish to use the pass-filter and
|
||||
active-filter options to pppd.
|
||||

||||
If unsure, say N.

config PPP_MULTILINK

bool "PPP multilink support"
|

depends on PPP
|
||||
---help---
|
||||
PPP multilink is a protocol (defined in RFC 1990) which allows you
|
||||
to combine several (logical or physical) lines into one logical PPP
|
||||
connection, so that you can utilize your full bandwidth.
|
||||
|
||||
This has to be supported at the other end as well and you need a
|
||||
version of the pppd daemon which understands the multilink protocol.

L2TP (RFC 2661) is a tunneling protocol widely used in virtual private

fairly simple and suited for clients.

PPTP (RFC 2637) is a tunneling protocol widely used in virtual private
