| AppleTalk is the protocol that Apple computers can use to communicate |
| on a network. If your Linux box is connected to such a network and you |
| wish to connect to it, say Y. You will need to use the netatalk package |
| so that your Linux box can act as a print and file server for Macs as |
| well as access AppleTalk printers. Check out |
| <http://www.zettabyte.net/netatalk/> on the WWW for details. |
| EtherTalk is the name used for AppleTalk over Ethernet and the |
| cheaper and slower LocalTalk is AppleTalk over a proprietary Apple |
| network using serial links. EtherTalk and LocalTalk are fully |
| supported by Linux. |
| |
| General information about how to connect Linux, Windows machines and |
| Macs is on the WWW at <http://www.eats.com/linux_mac_win.html>. The |
| NET-3-HOWTO, available from |
| <http://www.tldp.org/docs.html#howto>, contains valuable |
| information as well. |
| |
| To compile this driver as a module, choose M here: the module will be |
| called appletalk. You almost certainly want to compile it as a |
| module so you can restart your AppleTalk stack without rebooting |
| your machine. I hear that the GNU boycott of Apple is over, so |
| even politically correct people are allowed to say Y here. |

| config DEV_APPLETALK |
| bool "Appletalk interfaces support" |
| depends on ATALK |
| help |
| AppleTalk is the protocol that Apple computers can use to communicate |
| on a network. If your Linux box is connected to such a network, and wish |
| to do IP over it, or you have a LocalTalk card and wish to use it to |
| connect to the AppleTalk network, say Y. |

| config LTPC |
| tristate "Apple/Farallon LocalTalk PC support" |
| depends on DEV_APPLETALK && (ISA || EISA) && ISA_DMA_API |
| help |
| This allows you to use the AppleTalk PC card to connect to LocalTalk |
| networks. The card is also known as the Farallon PhoneNet PC card. |
| If you are in doubt, this card is the one with the 65C02 chip on it. |
| You also need version 1.3.3 or later of the netatalk package. |
| This driver is experimental, which means that it may not work. |
| See the file <file:Documentation/networking/ltpc.txt>. |
| |
| config COPS |
| tristate "COPS LocalTalk PC support" |
| depends on DEV_APPLETALK && (ISA || EISA) |
| help |
| This allows you to use COPS AppleTalk cards to connect to LocalTalk |
| networks. You also need version 1.3.3 or later of the netatalk |
| package. This driver is experimental, which means that it may not |
| work. This driver will only work if you choose "AppleTalk DDP" |
| networking support, above. |
| Please read the file <file:Documentation/networking/cops.txt>. |

| config COPS_DAYNA |
| bool "Dayna firmware support" |
| depends on COPS |
| help |
| Support COPS compatible cards with Dayna style firmware (Dayna |
| DL2000/ Daynatalk/PC (half length), COPS LT-95, Farallon PhoneNET PC |
| III, Farallon PhoneNET PC II). |

| Support COPS compatible cards with Tangent style firmware (Tangent |
| ATB_II, Novell NL-1000, Daystar Digital LT-200. |

| config IPDDP |
| tristate "Appletalk-IP driver support" |
| depends on DEV_APPLETALK && ATALK |
| ---help--- |
| This allows IP networking for users who only have AppleTalk |
| networking available. This feature is experimental. With this |
| driver, you can encapsulate IP inside AppleTalk (e.g. if your Linux |
| box is stuck on an AppleTalk only network) or decapsulate (e.g. if |
| you want your Linux box to act as an Internet gateway for a zoo of |
| AppleTalk connected Macs). Please see the file |
| <file:Documentation/networking/ipddp.txt> for more information. |
| |
| If you say Y here, the AppleTalk-IP support will be compiled into |
| the kernel. In this case, you can either use encapsulation or |
| decapsulation, but not both. With the following two questions, you |
| decide which one you want. |
| |
| To compile the AppleTalk-IP support as a module, choose M here: the |
| module will be called ipddp. |
| In this case, you will be able to use both encapsulation and |
| decapsulation simultaneously, by loading two copies of the module |
| and specifying different values for the module option ipddp_mode. |
| |
| config IPDDP_ENCAP |
| bool "IP to Appletalk-IP Encapsulation support" |
| depends on IPDDP |
| help |
| If you say Y here, the AppleTalk-IP code will be able to encapsulate |
| IP packets inside AppleTalk frames; this is useful if your Linux box |
| is stuck on an AppleTalk network (which hopefully contains a |
| decapsulator somewhere). Please see |
| <file:Documentation/networking/ipddp.txt> for more information. If |
| you said Y to "AppleTalk-IP driver support" above and you say Y |
| here, then you cannot say Y to "AppleTalk-IP to IP Decapsulation |
| support", below. |
| |
| config IPDDP_DECAP |
| bool "Appletalk-IP to IP Decapsulation support" |
| depends on IPDDP |
| help |
| If you say Y here, the AppleTalk-IP code will be able to decapsulate |
| AppleTalk-IP frames to IP packets; this is useful if you want your |
| Linux box to act as an Internet gateway for an AppleTalk network. |
| Please see <file:Documentation/networking/ipddp.txt> for more |
| information. If you said Y to "AppleTalk-IP driver support" above |
| and you say Y here, then you cannot say Y to "IP to AppleTalk-IP |
| Encapsulation support", above. |
