137 This driver supports several kinds of network links over USB,
138 with "minidrivers" built around a common network driver core
139 that supports deep queues for efficient transfers. (This gives
140 better performance with small packets and at high speeds).
141
142 The USB host runs "usbnet", and the other end of the link might be:
143
144 - Another USB host, when using USB "network" or "data transfer"
145 cables. These are often used to network laptops to PCs, like
146 "Laplink" parallel cables or some motherboards. These rely
147 on specialized chips from many suppliers.
148
149 - An intelligent USB gadget, perhaps embedding a Linux system.
150 These include PDAs running Linux (iPaq, Yopy, Zaurus, and
151 others), and devices that interoperate using the standard
152 CDC-Ethernet specification (including many cable modems).
153
154 - Network adapter hardware (like those for 10/100 Ethernet) which
155 uses this driver framework.
156
157 The link will appear with a name like "usb0", when the link is
158 a two-node link, or "eth0" for most CDC-Ethernet devices. Those
159 two-node links are most easily managed with Ethernet Bridging
160 (CONFIG_BRIDGE) instead of routing.

100 This driver supports several kinds of network links over USB,

102 that supports deep queues for efficient transfers. (This gives
103 better performance with small packets and at high speeds).
104
105 The USB host runs "usbnet", and the other end of the link might be:
106
107 - Another USB host, when using USB "network" or "data transfer"
108 cables. These are often used to network laptops to PCs, like
109 "Laplink" parallel cables or some motherboards. These rely
110 on specialized chips from many suppliers.
111
112 - An intelligent USB gadget, perhaps embedding a Linux system.
113 These include PDAs running Linux (iPaq, Yopy, Zaurus, and
114 others), and devices that interoperate using the standard
115 CDC-Ethernet specification (including many cable modems).
116
117 - Network adapter hardware (like those for 10/100 Ethernet) which
118 uses this driver framework.
119
120 The link will appear with a name like "usb0", when the link is
121 a two-node link, or "eth0" for most CDC-Ethernet devices. Those
122 two-node links are most easily managed with Ethernet Bridging
