101da177e4SLinus Torvalds	  ISDN ("Integrated Services Digital Networks", called RNIS in France)
111da177e4SLinus Torvalds	  is a special type of fully digital telephone service; it's mostly
121da177e4SLinus Torvalds	  used to connect to your Internet service provider (with SLIP or
131da177e4SLinus Torvalds	  PPP).  The main advantage is that the speed is higher than ordinary
141da177e4SLinus Torvalds	  modem/telephone connections, and that you can have voice
151da177e4SLinus Torvalds	  conversations while downloading stuff.  It only works if your
161da177e4SLinus Torvalds	  computer is equipped with an ISDN card and both you and your service
171da177e4SLinus Torvalds	  provider purchased an ISDN line from the phone company.  For
181da177e4SLinus Torvalds	  details, read <http://www.alumni.caltech.edu/~dank/isdn/> on the WWW.

275bf1deddSTilman Schmidt	  This driver allows you to use an ISDN adapter for networking
281da177e4SLinus Torvalds	  connections and as dialin/out device.  The isdn-tty's have a built
291da177e4SLinus Torvalds	  in AT-compatible modem emulator.  Network devices support autodial,
301da177e4SLinus Torvalds	  channel-bundling, callback and caller-authentication without having
311da177e4SLinus Torvalds	  a daemon running.  A reduced T.70 protocol is supported with tty's
321da177e4SLinus Torvalds	  suitable for German BTX.  On D-Channel, the protocols EDSS1
331da177e4SLinus Torvalds	  (Euro-ISDN) and 1TR6 (German style) are supported.  See
341da177e4SLinus Torvalds	  <file:Documentation/isdn/README> for more information.

361da177e4SLinus Torvalds	  ISDN support in the linux kernel is moving towards a new API,
371da177e4SLinus Torvalds	  called CAPI (Common ISDN Application Programming Interface).
385bf1deddSTilman Schmidt	  Therefore the old ISDN4Linux layer will eventually become obsolete.
395bf1deddSTilman Schmidt	  It is still available, though, for use with adapters that are not
405bf1deddSTilman Schmidt	  supported by the new CAPI subsystem yet.
