5config ATALK
6	tristate "Appletalk protocol support"
7	select LLC
8	help
9	  AppleTalk is the protocol that Apple computers can use to communicate
10	  on a network.  If your Linux box is connected to such a network and you
11	  wish to connect to it, say Y.  You will need to use the netatalk package
12	  so that your Linux box can act as a print and file server for Macs as
13	  well as access AppleTalk printers.  Check out
14	  <http://www.zettabyte.net/netatalk/> on the WWW for details.
15	  EtherTalk is the name used for AppleTalk over Ethernet and the
16	  cheaper and slower LocalTalk is AppleTalk over a proprietary Apple
17	  network using serial links.  EtherTalk and LocalTalk are fully
18	  supported by Linux.
19
20	  General information about how to connect Linux, Windows machines and
21	  Macs is on the WWW at <http://www.eats.com/linux_mac_win.html>.  The
22	  NET3-4-HOWTO, available from
23	  <http://www.tldp.org/docs.html#howto>, contains valuable
24	  information as well.
25
26	  To compile this driver as a module, choose M here: the module will be
27	  called appletalk. You almost certainly want to compile it as a
28	  module so you can restart your AppleTalk stack without rebooting
29	  your machine. I hear that the GNU boycott of Apple is over, so
30	  even politically correct people are allowed to say Y here.

32config DEV_APPLETALK
33	tristate "Appletalk interfaces support"
34	depends on ATALK
35	help
36	  AppleTalk is the protocol that Apple computers can use to communicate
37	  on a network.  If your Linux box is connected to such a network, and wish
38	  to do IP over it, or you have a LocalTalk card and wish to use it to
39	  connect to the AppleTalk network, say Y.

42config COPS
43	tristate "COPS LocalTalk PC support"
44	depends on DEV_APPLETALK && ISA
45	depends on NETDEVICES
46	select NETDEV_LEGACY_INIT
47	help
48	  This allows you to use COPS AppleTalk cards to connect to LocalTalk
49	  networks. You also need version 1.3.3 or later of the netatalk
50	  package. This driver is experimental, which means that it may not
51	  work. This driver will only work if you choose "AppleTalk DDP"
52	  networking support, above.
53	  Please read the file
54	  <file:Documentation/networking/device_drivers/appletalk/cops.rst>.

56config COPS_DAYNA
57	bool "Dayna firmware support"
58	depends on COPS
59	help
60	  Support COPS compatible cards with Dayna style firmware (Dayna
61	  DL2000/ Daynatalk/PC (half length), COPS LT-95, Farallon PhoneNET PC
62	  III, Farallon PhoneNET PC II).
63
64config COPS_TANGENT
65	bool "Tangent firmware support"
66	depends on COPS
67	help
68	  Support COPS compatible cards with Tangent style firmware (Tangent
69	  ATB_II, Novell NL-1000, Daystar Digital LT-200.

71config IPDDP
72	tristate "Appletalk-IP driver support"
73	depends on DEV_APPLETALK && ATALK
74	help
75	  This allows IP networking for users who only have AppleTalk
76	  networking available. This feature is experimental. With this
77	  driver, you can encapsulate IP inside AppleTalk (e.g. if your Linux
78	  box is stuck on an AppleTalk only network) or decapsulate (e.g. if
79	  you want your Linux box to act as an Internet gateway for a zoo of
80	  AppleTalk connected Macs). Please see the file
81	  <file:Documentation/networking/ipddp.rst> for more information.
82
83	  If you say Y here, the AppleTalk-IP support will be compiled into
84	  the kernel. In this case, you can either use encapsulation or
85	  decapsulation, but not both. With the following two questions, you
86	  decide which one you want.
87
88	  To compile the AppleTalk-IP support as a module, choose M here: the
89	  module will be called ipddp.
90	  In this case, you will be able to use both encapsulation and
91	  decapsulation simultaneously, by loading two copies of the module
92	  and specifying different values for the module option ipddp_mode.
93
94config IPDDP_ENCAP
95	bool "IP to Appletalk-IP Encapsulation support"
96	depends on IPDDP
97	help
98	  If you say Y here, the AppleTalk-IP code will be able to encapsulate
99	  IP packets inside AppleTalk frames; this is useful if your Linux box
100	  is stuck on an AppleTalk network (which hopefully contains a
101	  decapsulator somewhere). Please see
102	  <file:Documentation/networking/ipddp.rst> for more information.
