CONFIG_ECONET: Acorn Econet/AUN protocols (EXPERIMENTAL)

General informations

The Linux kernel configuration item CONFIG_ECONET has multiple definitions:

Acorn Econet/AUN protocols (EXPERIMENTAL) found in net/econet/Kconfig

The configuration item CONFIG_ECONET:

• prompt: Acorn Econet/AUN protocols (EXPERIMENTAL)
• type: tristate
• depends on: CONFIG_EXPERIMENTAL && CONFIG_INET
• defined in net/econet/Kconfig
• found in Linux kernels: 2.6.13–2.6.39, 3.0–3.4
• modules built: econet, econet

Help text

Econet is a fairly old and slow networking protocol mainly used by Acorn computers to access file and print servers. It uses native Econet network cards. AUN is an implementation of the higher level parts of Econet that runs over ordinary Ethernet connections, on top of the UDP packet protocol, which in turn runs on top of the Internet protocol IP.

If you say Y here, you can choose with the next two options whether to send Econet/AUN traffic over a UDP Ethernet connection or over a native Econet network card.

To compile this driver as a module, choose M here: the module will be called econet.
