| 7 | The DECnet networking protocol was used in many products made by |
| 8 | Digital (now Compaq). It provides reliable stream and sequenced |
| 9 | packet communications over which run a variety of services similar |
| 10 | to those which run over TCP/IP. |
| 11 | |
| 12 | To find some tools to use with the kernel layer support, please |
| 13 | look at Patrick Caulfield's web site: |
| 14 | <http://linux-decnet.sourceforge.net/>. |
| 15 | |
| 16 | More detailed documentation is available in |
| 17 | <file:Documentation/networking/decnet.txt>. |
| 18 | |
| 19 | Be sure to say Y to "/proc file system support" and "Sysctl support" |
| 20 | below when using DECnet, since you will need sysctl support to aid |
| 21 | in configuration at run time. |
| 22 | |
| 23 | The DECnet code is also available as a module ( = code which can be |
| 24 | inserted in and removed from the running kernel whenever you want). |
| 25 | The module is called decnet. |
| 26 | |
| 27 | config DECNET_ROUTER |
| 28 | bool "DECnet: router support (EXPERIMENTAL)" |
| 29 | depends on DECNET && EXPERIMENTAL |
| 30 | select FIB_RULES |
| 31 | ---help--- |
| 32 | Add support for turning your DECnet Endnode into a level 1 or 2 |
| 33 | router. This is an experimental, but functional option. If you |
| 34 | do say Y here, then make sure that you also say Y to "Kernel/User |
| 35 | network link driver", "Routing messages" and "Network packet |
| 36 | filtering". The first two are required to allow configuration via |
| 37 | rtnetlink (you will need Alexey Kuznetsov's iproute2 package |
| 38 | from <ftp://ftp.tux.org/pub/net/ip-routing/>). The "Network packet |
| 39 | filtering" option will be required for the forthcoming routing daemon |
| 40 | to work. |
