15 Say Y if you want to use one of the following 10Mbps USB Ethernet
16 device based on the EL1210A chip. Supported devices are:
17 Belkin F5U011
18 Belkin F5U111
19 CATC NetMate
20 CATC NetMate II
21 smartBridges smartNIC
22
23 This driver makes the adapter appear as a normal Ethernet interface,
24 typically on eth0, if it is the only ethernet device, or perhaps on
25 eth1, if you have a PCI or ISA ethernet card installed.

55 This driver is likely to work with most 10Mbps only USB Ethernet
56 adapters, including some "no brand" devices. It does NOT work on
57 SmartBridges smartNIC or on Belkin F5U111 devices - you should use

59 you need, select both, and the correct one should be selected for
60 you.

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

204 in some PXA versions of the "blob" boot loader.
205
206 Linux-based "Gumstix" PXA-25x based systems use this protocol
207 to talk with other Linux systems.

244 CDC Ethernet is an implementation option for DOCSIS cable modems
245 that support USB connectivity, used for non-Microsoft USB hosts.

255 what other networking devices you have in use. However, if the
256 IEEE 802 "local assignment" bit is set in the address, a "usbX"
257 name is used instead.
