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

|
Classical IP over ATM for PVCs and SVCs, supporting InARP and |
|
ATMARP. If you want to communication with other IP hosts on your ATM |
|
network, you will typically either say Y here or to "LAN Emulation |
|
(LANE)" below. |

config ATM_CLIP_NO_ICMP |

bool "Do NOT send ICMP if no neighbour" |
|
depends on ATM_CLIP |
|
help |
|
Normally, an "ICMP host unreachable" message is sent if a neighbour |
|
cannot be reached because there is no VC to it in the kernel's |
|
ATMARP table. This may cause problems when ATMARP table entries are |
|
briefly removed during revalidation. If you say Y here, packets to |
|
such neighbours are silently discarded instead. |

|
depends on ATM |
|
help |
|
LAN Emulation emulates services of existing LANs across an ATM |
|
network. Besides operating as a normal ATM end station client, Linux |
|
LANE client can also act as an proxy client bridging packets between |
|
ELAN and Ethernet segments. You need LANE if you want to try MPOA. |

depends on ATM && INET && ATM_LANE!=n |
|
help |
|
Multi-Protocol Over ATM allows ATM edge devices such as routers, |
|
bridges and ATM attached hosts establish direct ATM VCs across |
|
subnetwork boundaries. These shortcut connections bypass routers |
|
enhancing overall network performance. |

|
ATM PVCs can carry ethernet PDUs according to RFC2684 (formerly 1483) |
|
This device will act like an ethernet from the kernels point of view, |
|
with the traffic being carried by ATM PVCs (currently 1 PVC/device). |
|
This is sometimes used over DSL lines. If in doubt, say N. |

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