Device Drivers
[*] Network device support --->
⽹络设备驱动、⽹卡驱动
< > Bonding driver support
功能：多⽹卡绑定
具体操作为：将多个以太⽹通道绑定为⼀个,也就是两块⽹卡具有相同的IP地址并且聚合成⼀个逻辑链路⼯作,可以⽤来实现负载均衡或硬件冗余
< > Dummy net driver support
功能：哑接⼝⽹络
使⽤环境：使⽤SLIP或PPP传输协议(如ADSL⽤户)的需要它
具体操作：设置⼀个虚拟⽹络。

虚拟⽹络(dummy network)就像⽹络中的/dev/null。

任何发送给虚拟⽹络的数据都会永久消失，因为它会发往/dev/null。

IP地址没有设置。

⽤户可以定义他们的⽹络相当于/dev/null）
< > EQL (serial line load balancing) support
功能：串⾏线路的负载均衡
具体操作：如果有两个MODEM和两条电话线⽽且⽤SLIP或PPP协议,该选项可以让您同时使⽤这两个MODEM以达到双倍速度(在⽹络的另⼀端也要有同样的设备)
< > Generic Media Independent Interface device support
功能：通⽤媒体独⽴接⼝设备⽀持
背景介绍：MII是⼀种⽤于最⾼速度为100Mbit/s以太⽹的接⼝。

以太⽹线缆⽤于连接到PHY ceiver，是⼀种以太⽹收发器
< > Ethernet team driver support (EXPERIMENTAL) --->
功能：team⽹卡组⽀持
背景介绍：通过虚拟接⼝组织许多以太⽹设备
< > MAC-VLAN support (EXPERIMENTAL)
功能：允许⽤户在特定的MAC地址和某个接⼝上映射数据包
具体操作：基于MAC地址的VLAN，⼀种根据报⽂的源MAC地址来确定untagged报⽂所属VLAN的划分⽅法
< > Network console logging support
⽹络远程命令⽀持，远程登录⽤
注意：内核发送给⽹络的消息可任意通过这个特性记录下来。

除⾮记录⽹络信息对你很重要时才启⽤它。

禁⽤这个特性会增强性能。

< > Universal TUN/TAP device driver support
TUN/TAP可以为⽤户空间提供包的接收和发送服务,⽐如可以⽤来虚拟⼀张⽹卡或点对点通道
使⽤环境：如果⽤户空间程序希望使⽤TAP设备
< > Virtual ethernet pair device
本地以太⽹隧道

<*> PHY Device support and infrastructure --->
数据链路层芯⽚简称为MAC控制器,物理层芯⽚简称之为PHY,通常的⽹卡把MAC和PHY的功能做到了⼀颗芯⽚中,但也有⼀些仅含PHY的"软⽹卡"，这⾥就是软⽹卡的驱动

< > Micrel KS8995MA 5-ports 10/100 managed Ethernet switch
5端⼝10/100M以太⽹交换机芯⽚KS8995MA
< > PPP (point-to-point protocol) support
点对点协议,PPP已经基本取代SLIP了,ADSL拨号上⽹⽅式
< > SLIP (serial line) support
⼀个在串⾏线上(例如电话线)传输IP数据报的TCP/IP协议.
驱动⽀持SLIP和CSLIP。

SLIP(Serial Line Internet Protocol)是⼀种⽤于调制解调器和串⼝的因特⽹驱动。

PPP现在⽤来代替SLIP。

CSLIP 是压缩的SLIP。

menuconfig ETHERNET
bool "Ethernet driver support"
depends on NET
default y
---help---
This section contains all the Ethernet device drivers.

default y
help
This selects the hieth gmac family network device. The gigabit
switch fabric (GSF) receives and transmits data over two Ethernet
ports at 10/100/1000 Mbit/s in full-duplex or half-duplex mode.
The Ethernet port exchanges data with the CPU port, and supports
the energy efficient Ethernet (EEE) and wake on LAN (WoL) functions.
