9 | Econet is a fairly old and slow networking protocol mainly used by | |
10 | Acorn computers to access file and print servers. It uses native | |
11 | Econet network cards. AUN is an implementation of the higher level | |
12 | parts of Econet that runs over ordinary Ethernet connections, on | |
13 | top of the UDP packet protocol, which in turn runs on top of the | |
14 | Internet protocol IP. | |
15 | ||
16 | If you say Y here, you can choose with the next two options whether | |
17 | to send Econet/AUN traffic over a UDP Ethernet connection or over | |
18 | a native Econet network card. | |
19 | ||
20 | To compile this driver as a module, choose M here: the module | |
21 | will be called econet. | |

27 | Say Y here if you want to send Econet/AUN traffic over a UDP | |
28 | connection (UDP is a packet based protocol that runs on top of the | |
29 | Internet protocol IP) using an ordinary Ethernet network card. | |

31 | config ECONET_NATIVE | |
32 | bool "Native Econet" | |
33 | depends on ECONET | |
34 | help | |
35 | Say Y here if you have a native Econet network card installed in | |
36 | your computer. |
