|
|
|
- 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.
