9 AppleTalk is the protocol that Apple computers can use to communicate
10 on a network. If your Linux box is connected to such a network and you
11 wish to connect to it, say Y. You will need to use the netatalk package
12 so that your Linux box can act as a print and file server for Macs as
13 well as access AppleTalk printers. Check out
14 <http://www.zettabyte.net/netatalk/> on the WWW for details.
15 EtherTalk is the name used for AppleTalk over Ethernet and the
16 cheaper and slower LocalTalk is AppleTalk over a proprietary Apple
17 network using serial links. EtherTalk and LocalTalk are fully
18 supported by Linux.

20 General information about how to connect Linux, Windows machines and
21 Macs is on the WWW at <http://www.eats.com/linux_mac_win.html>. The
22 NET3-4-HOWTO, available from
23 <http://www.tldp.org/docs.html#howto>, contains valuable
24 information as well.

26 To compile this driver as a module, choose M here: the module will be
27 called appletalk. You almost certainly want to compile it as a
28 module so you can restart your AppleTalk stack without rebooting
29 your machine. I hear that the GNU boycott of Apple is over, so
30 even politically correct people are allowed to say Y here.

36 AppleTalk is the protocol that Apple computers can use to communicate
37 on a network. If your Linux box is connected to such a network, and wish
38 to do IP over it, or you have a LocalTalk card and wish to use it to
39 connect to the AppleTalk network, say Y.

48 This allows you to use COPS AppleTalk cards to connect to LocalTalk
49 networks. You also need version 1.3.3 or later of the netatalk
50 package. This driver is experimental, which means that it may not
51 work. This driver will only work if you choose "AppleTalk DDP"
52 networking support, above.
53 Please read the file

72 tristate "Appletalk-IP driver support"
73 depends on DEV_APPLETALK && ATALK
74 help
75 This allows IP networking for users who only have AppleTalk
76 networking available. This feature is experimental. With this
77 driver, you can encapsulate IP inside AppleTalk (e.g. if your Linux
78 box is stuck on an AppleTalk only network) or decapsulate (e.g. if
79 you want your Linux box to act as an Internet gateway for a zoo of
80 AppleTalk connected Macs). Please see the file
81 <file:Documentation/networking/ipddp.rst> for more information.
82
83 If you say Y here, the AppleTalk-IP support will be compiled into
84 the kernel. In this case, you can either use encapsulation or
85 decapsulation, but not both. With the following two questions, you
86 decide which one you want.
87
88 To compile the AppleTalk-IP support as a module, choose M here: the
89 module will be called ipddp.
90 In this case, you will be able to use both encapsulation and
91 decapsulation simultaneously, by loading two copies of the module
92 and specifying different values for the module option ipddp_mode.
93
94config IPDDP_ENCAP
95 bool "IP to Appletalk-IP Encapsulation support"
96 depends on IPDDP
97 help
98 If you say Y here, the AppleTalk-IP code will be able to encapsulate
99 IP packets inside AppleTalk frames; this is useful if your Linux box
100 is stuck on an AppleTalk network (which hopefully contains a
101 decapsulator somewhere). Please see
102 <file:Documentation/networking/ipddp.rst> for more information.
