config IP_MULTICAST
        bool "IP: multicasting"
        help
          This is code for addressing several networked computers at once,
          enlarging your kernel by about 2 KB. You need multicasting if you
          intend to participate in the MBONE, a high bandwidth network on top
          of the Internet which carries audio and video broadcasts. More
          information about the MBONE is on the WWW at
          <http://www.savetz.com/mbone/>. Information about the multicast
          capabilities of the various network cards is contained in
          <file:Documentation/networking/multicast.txt>. For most people, it's
          safe to say N.

config IP_ADVANCED_ROUTER
        bool "IP: advanced router"
        ---help---
          If you intend to run your Linux box mostly as a router, i.e. as a
          computer that forwards and redistributes network packets, say Y; you
          will then be presented with several options that allow more precise
          control about the routing process.

          The answer to this question won't directly affect the kernel:
          answering N will just cause the configurator to skip all the
          questions about advanced routing.

          Note that your box can only act as a router if you enable IP
          forwarding in your kernel; you can do that by saying Y to "/proc
          file system support" and "Sysctl support" below and executing the
          line

          echo "1" > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward

          at boot time after the /proc file system has been mounted.

          If you turn on IP forwarding, you will also get the rp_filter, which
          automatically rejects incoming packets if the routing table entry
          for their source address doesn't match the network interface they're
          arriving on. This has security advantages because it prevents the
          so-called IP spoofing, however it can pose problems if you use
          asymmetric routing (packets from you to a host take a different path
          than packets from that host to you) or if you operate a non-routing
          host which has several IP addresses on different interfaces. To turn
          rp_filter on use:

          echo 1 > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/conf/<device>/rp_filter
          or
          echo 1 > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/conf/all/rp_filter

          If unsure, say N here.

          Normally, a router decides what to do with a received packet based
          solely on the packet's final destination address. If you say Y here,
          the Linux router will also be able to take the packet's source
          address into account. Furthermore, the TOS (Type-Of-Service) field
          of the packet can be used for routing decisions as well.

          If you are interested in this, please see the preliminary
          documentation at <http://www.compendium.com.ar/policy-routing.txt>

        help
          Normally, the routing tables specify a single action to be taken in
          a deterministic manner for a given packet. If you say Y here
          however, it becomes possible to attach several actions to a packet
          pattern, in effect specifying several alternative paths to travel
          for those packets. The router considers all these paths to be of
          equal "cost" and chooses one of them in a non-deterministic fashion
          if a matching packet arrives.

          verbose messages regarding the routing, for example warnings about
          received packets which look strange and could be evidence of an
          attack or a misconfigured system somewhere. The information is

          You need to say Y only for diskless machines requiring network
          access to boot (in which case you want to say Y to "Root file system

          encapsulating protocol. This particular tunneling driver implements
          encapsulation of IP within IP, which sounds kind of pointless, but
          can be useful if you want to make your (or some other) machine
          appear on a different network than it physically is, or to use
          mobile-IP facilities (allowing laptops to seamlessly move between
          networks without changing their IP addresses).

          Saying Y to this option will produce two modules ( = code which can

          GRE (Generic Routing Encapsulation) and at this time allows
          encapsulating of IPv4 or IPv6 over existing IPv4 infrastructure.
          This driver is useful if the other endpoint is a Cisco router: Cisco
          likes GRE much better than the other Linux tunneling driver ("IP
          tunneling" above). In addition, GRE allows multicast redistribution

          (pimd-v1). Please see <http://netweb.usc.edu/pim/> for more
          information about PIM.

          you want to play with it.

config ARPD
        bool "IP: ARP daemon support (EXPERIMENTAL)"
        depends on EXPERIMENTAL
        ---help---
          Normally, the kernel maintains an internal cache which maps IP
          addresses to hardware addresses on the local network, so that
          Ethernet/Token Ring/ etc. frames are sent to the proper address on
          the physical networking layer. For small networks having a few
          hundred directly connected hosts or less, keeping this address
          resolution (ARP) cache inside the kernel works well. However,
          maintaining an internal ARP cache does not work well for very large
          switched networks, and will use a lot of kernel memory if TCP/IP
          connections are made to many machines on the network.

          If you say Y here, the kernel's internal ARP cache will never grow
          to more than 256 entries (the oldest entries are expired in a LIFO
          manner) and communication will be attempted with the user space ARP
          daemon arpd. Arpd then answers the address resolution request either
          from its own cache or by asking the net.

          This code is experimental and also obsolete. If you want to use it,
          you need to find a version of the daemon arpd on the net somewhere,
          and you should also say Y to "Kernel/User network link driver",
          below. If unsure, say N.

config SYN_COOKIES
        bool "IP: TCP syncookie support (disabled per default)"
        ---help---
          Normal TCP/IP networking is open to an attack known as "SYN
          flooding". This denial-of-service attack prevents legitimate remote
          users from being able to connect to your computer during an ongoing
          attack and requires very little work from the attacker, who can
          operate from anywhere on the Internet.

          SYN cookies provide protection against this type of attack. If you
          say Y here, the TCP/IP stack will use a cryptographic challenge
          protocol known as "SYN cookies" to enable legitimate users to
          continue to connect, even when your machine is under attack. There
          is no need for the legitimate users to change their TCP/IP software;
          SYN cookies work transparently to them. For technical information
          about SYN cookies, check out <http://cr.yp.to/syncookies.html>.

          If you are SYN flooded, the source address reported by the kernel is
          likely to have been forged by the attacker; it is only reported as
          an aid in tracing the packets to their actual source and should not
          be taken as absolute truth.

          SYN cookies may prevent correct error reporting on clients when the
          server is really overloaded. If this happens frequently better turn
          them off.

          If you say Y here, note that SYN cookies aren't enabled by default;
          you can enable them by saying Y to "/proc file system support" and
          "Sysctl support" below and executing the command

          echo 1 >/proc/sys/net/ipv4/tcp_syncookies

        H-TCP is a send-side only modifications of the TCP Reno
        protocol stack that optimizes the performance of TCP
        congestion control for high speed network links. It uses a
        modeswitch to change the alpha and beta parameters of TCP Reno
        based on network conditions and in a way so as to be fair with
        other Reno and H-TCP flows.

        ---help---
        TCP-Hybla is a sender-side only change that eliminates penalization of
        long-RTT, large-bandwidth connections, like when satellite legs are
        involved, especially when sharing a common bottleneck with normal
        terrestrial connections.

        ---help---
        TCP Vegas is a sender-side only change to TCP that anticipates
        the onset of congestion by estimating the bandwidth. TCP Vegas
        adjusts the sending rate by modifying the congestion
        window. TCP Vegas should provide less packet loss, but it is
        not as aggressive as TCP Reno.

        ---help---
        Scalable TCP is a sender-side only change to TCP which uses a
        MIMD congestion control algorithm which has some nice scaling
        properties, though is known to have fairness issues.

        TCP Low Priority (TCP-LP), a distributed algorithm whose goal is
        to utilize only the excess network bandwidth as compared to the
        ``fair share`` of bandwidth as targeted by TCP.

        TCP Veno is a sender-side only enhancement of TCP to obtain better
        throughput over wireless networks. TCP Veno makes use of state
        distinguishing to circumvent the difficult judgment of the packet loss
        type. TCP Veno cuts down less congestion window in response to random
        loss packets.

        YeAH-TCP is a sender-side high-speed enabled TCP congestion control
        algorithm, which uses a mixed loss/delay approach to compute the
        congestion window. It's design goals target high efficiency,
        internal, RTT and Reno fairness, resilience to link loss while
        keeping network elements load as low as possible.
