129 ---help---
130 This driver supports several kinds of network links over USB,
131 with "minidrivers" built around a common network driver core
132 that supports deep queues for efficient transfers. (This gives
133 better performance with small packets and at high speeds).
134
135 The USB host runs "usbnet", and the other end of the link might be:
136
137 - Another USB host, when using USB "network" or "data transfer"
138 cables. These are often used to network laptops to PCs, like
139 "Laplink" parallel cables or some motherboards. These rely
140 on specialized chips from many suppliers.
141
142 - An intelligent USB gadget, perhaps embedding a Linux system.
143 These include PDAs running Linux (iPaq, Yopy, Zaurus, and
144 others), and devices that interoperate using the standard
145 CDC-Ethernet specification (including many cable modems).
146
147 - Network adapter hardware (like those for 10/100 Ethernet) which
148 uses this driver framework.
149
150 The link will appear with a name like "usb0", when the link is
151 a two-node link, or "eth0" for most CDC-Ethernet devices. Those
152 two-node links are most easily managed with Ethernet Bridging
153 (CONFIG_BRIDGE) instead of routing.

132 This driver supports several kinds of network links over USB,
133 with "minidrivers" built around a common network driver core
134 that supports deep queues for efficient transfers. (This gives
135 better performance with small packets and at high speeds).
136
137 The USB host runs "usbnet", and the other end of the link might be:
138
139 - Another USB host, when using USB "network" or "data transfer"
140 cables. These are often used to network laptops to PCs, like
141 "Laplink" parallel cables or some motherboards. These rely
142 on specialized chips from many suppliers.
143
144 - An intelligent USB gadget, perhaps embedding a Linux system.
145 These include PDAs running Linux (iPaq, Yopy, Zaurus, and
146 others), and devices that interoperate using the standard
147 CDC-Ethernet specification (including many cable modems).
148
149 - Network adapter hardware (like those for 10/100 Ethernet) which
150 uses this driver framework.
151
152 The link will appear with a name like "usb0", when the link is
153 a two-node link, or "eth0" for most CDC-Ethernet devices. Those
154 two-node links are most easily managed with Ethernet Bridging
155 (CONFIG_BRIDGE) instead of routing.
