96a2e9b73SSam Ravnborg	  Link Access Procedure, Balanced (LAPB) is the data link layer (i.e.
106a2e9b73SSam Ravnborg	  the lower) part of the X.25 protocol. It offers a reliable
116a2e9b73SSam Ravnborg	  connection service to exchange data frames with one other host, and
126a2e9b73SSam Ravnborg	  it is used to transport higher level protocols (mostly X.25 Packet
136a2e9b73SSam Ravnborg	  Layer, the higher part of X.25, but others are possible as well).
146a2e9b73SSam Ravnborg	  Usually, LAPB is used with specialized X.21 network cards, but Linux
156a2e9b73SSam Ravnborg	  currently supports LAPB only over Ethernet connections. If you want
166a2e9b73SSam Ravnborg	  to use LAPB connections over Ethernet, say Y here and to "LAPB over
176a2e9b73SSam Ravnborg	  Ethernet driver" below. Read
1840e79150SMauro Carvalho Chehab	  <file:Documentation/networking/lapb-module.rst> for technical
196a2e9b73SSam Ravnborg	  details.

216a2e9b73SSam Ravnborg	  To compile this driver as a module, choose M here: the
226a2e9b73SSam Ravnborg	  module will be called lapb.  If unsure, say N.
