  8. ATM is a high-speed networking technology for Local Area Networks
  9. and Wide Area Networks. It uses a fixed packet size and is
  10. connection oriented, allowing for the negotiation of minimum
  11. bandwidth requirements.
  12. In order to participate in an ATM network, your Linux box needs an
  13. ATM networking card. If you have that, say Y here and to the driver
  14. of your ATM card below.
  15. Note that you need a set of user-space programs to actually make use
  16. of ATM. See the file <file:Documentation/networking/atm.txt> for
  17. further details.

  21. help
  22. Classical IP over ATM for PVCs and SVCs, supporting InARP and
  23. ATMARP. If you want to communication with other IP hosts on your ATM
  24. network, you will typically either say Y here or to "LAN Emulation
  25. (LANE)" below.
  26. config ATM_CLIP_NO_ICMP
  27. bool "Do NOT send ICMP if no neighbour (EXPERIMENTAL)"
  28. depends on ATM_CLIP
  29. help
  30. Normally, an "ICMP host unreachable" message is sent if a neighbour
  31. cannot be reached because there is no VC to it in the kernel's
  32. ATMARP table. This may cause problems when ATMARP table entries are
  33. briefly removed during revalidation. If you say Y here, packets to
  34. such neighbours are silently discarded instead.
  35. config ATM_LANE
  36. tristate "LAN Emulation (LANE) support (EXPERIMENTAL)"
  37. depends on ATM
  38. help
  39. LAN Emulation emulates services of existing LANs across an ATM
  40. network. Besides operating as a normal ATM end station client, Linux
  41. LANE client can also act as an proxy client bridging packets between
  42. ELAN and Ethernet segments. You need LANE if you want to try MPOA.
  43. config ATM_MPOA
  44. tristate "Multi-Protocol Over ATM (MPOA) support (EXPERIMENTAL)"
  45. depends on ATM && INET && ATM_LANE!=n
  46. help
  47. Multi-Protocol Over ATM allows ATM edge devices such as routers,
  48. bridges and ATM attached hosts establish direct ATM VCs across
  49. subnetwork boundaries. These shortcut connections bypass routers
  50. enhancing overall network performance.
  51. config ATM_BR2684
  52. tristate "RFC1483/2684 Bridged protocols"
  53. depends on ATM && INET
  54. help
  55. ATM PVCs can carry ethernet PDUs according to RFC2684 (formerly 1483)
  56. This device will act like an ethernet from the kernels point of view,
  57. with the traffic being carried by ATM PVCs (currently 1 PVC/device).
  58. This is sometimes used over DSL lines. If in doubt, say N.
  59. config ATM_BR2684_IPFILTER

  62. help
  63. This is an experimental mechanism for users who need to terminate a
  64. large number of IP-only vcc's. Do not enable this unless you are sure
  65. you know what you are doing.
