You need multicasting if you 9 intend to participate in the MBONE, a high bandwidth network on top 10 of the Internet which carries audio and video broadcasts. More 11 information about the MBONE is on the WWW at 12 <http://www.savetz.com/mbone/>. For most people, it's safe to say N. 13 14config IP_ADVANCED_ROUTER 15 bool "IP: advanced router" 16 ---help--- 17 If you intend to run your Linux box mostly as a router, i.e. as a 18 computer that forwards and redistributes network packets, say Y; you 19 will then be presented with several options that allow more precise 20 control about the routing process. 21 22 The answer to this question won't directly affect the kernel: 23 answering N will just cause the configurator to skip all the 24 questions about advanced routing. 25 26 Note that your box can only act as a router if you enable IP 27 forwarding in your kernel; you can do that by saying Y to "/proc 28 file system support" and "Sysctl support" below and executing the 29 line 30 31 echo "1" > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward 32 33 at boot time after the /proc file system has been mounted. 34 35 If you turn on IP forwarding, you should consider the rp_filter, which 36 automatically rejects incoming packets if the routing table entry 37 for their source address doesn't match the network interface they're 38 arriving on. This has security advantages because it prevents the 39 so-called IP spoofing, however it can pose problems if you use 40 asymmetric routing (packets from you to a host take a different path 41 than packets from that host to you) or if you operate a non-routing 42 host which has several IP addresses on different interfaces. To turn 43 rp_filter on use: 44 45 echo 1 > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/conf/<device>/rp_filter 46 or 47 echo 1 > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/conf/all/rp_filter 48 49 Note that some distributions enable it in startup scripts. 50 For details about rp_filter strict and loose mode read 51 <file:Documentation/networking/ip-sysctl.txt>. 52 53 If unsure, say N here. 54 55config IP_FIB_TRIE_STATS 56 bool "FIB TRIE statistics" 57 depends on IP_ADVANCED_ROUTER 58 ---help--- 59 Keep track of statistics on structure of FIB TRIE table. 60 Useful for testing and measuring TRIE performance. 61 62config IP_MULTIPLE_TABLES 63 bool "IP: policy routing" 64 depends on IP_ADVANCED_ROUTER 65 select FIB_RULES 66 ---help--- 67 Normally, a router decides what to do with a received packet based 68 solely on the packet's final destination address. If you say Y here, 69 the Linux router will also be able to take the packet's source 70 address into account. Furthermore, the TOS (Type-Of-Service) field 71 of the packet can be used for routing decisions as well. 72 73 If you need more information, see the Linux Advanced 74 Routing and Traffic Control documentation at 75 <http://lartc.org/howto/lartc.rpdb.html> 76 77 If unsure, say N. 78 79config IP_ROUTE_MULTIPATH 80 bool "IP: equal cost multipath" 81 depends on IP_ADVANCED_ROUTER 82 help 83 Normally, the routing tables specify a single action to be taken in 84 a deterministic manner for a given packet. If you say Y here 85 however, it becomes possible to attach several actions to a packet 86 pattern, in effect specifying several alternative paths to travel 87 for those packets. The router considers all these paths to be of 88 equal "cost" and chooses one of them in a non-deterministic fashion 89 if a matching packet arrives. 90 91config IP_ROUTE_VERBOSE 92 bool "IP: verbose route monitoring" 93 depends on IP_ADVANCED_ROUTER 94 help 95 If you say Y here, which is recommended, then the kernel will print 96 verbose messages regarding the routing, for example warnings about 97 received packets which look strange and could be evidence of an 98 attack or a misconfigured system somewhere.

This denial-of-service attack prevents legitimate remote 272 users from being able to connect to your computer during an ongoing 273 attack and requires very little work from the attacker, who can 274 operate from anywhere on the Internet. 275 276 SYN cookies provide protection against this type of attack. If you 277 say Y here, the TCP/IP stack will use a cryptographic challenge 278 protocol known as "SYN cookies" to enable legitimate users to 279 continue to connect, even when your machine is under attack. There 280 is no need for the legitimate users to change their TCP/IP software; 281 SYN cookies work transparently to them. For technical information 282 about SYN cookies, check out <http://cr.yp.to/syncookies.html>. 283 284 If you are SYN flooded, the source address reported by the kernel is 285 likely to have been forged by the attacker; it is only reported as 286 an aid in tracing the packets to their actual source and should not 287 be taken as absolute truth. 288 289 SYN cookies may prevent correct error reporting on clients when the 290 server is really overloaded. If this happens frequently better turn 291 them off. 292 293 If you say Y here, you can disable SYN cookies at run time by 294 saying Y to "/proc file system support" and 295 "Sysctl support" below and executing the command 296 297 echo 0 > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/tcp_syncookies 298 299 after the /proc file system has been mounted. 300 301 If unsure, say N. 302 303config NET_IPVTI 304 tristate "Virtual (secure) IP: tunneling" 305 select INET_TUNNEL 306 select NET_IP_TUNNEL 307 select XFRM 308 ---help--- 309 Tunneling means encapsulating data of one protocol type within 310 another protocol and sending it over a channel that understands the 311 encapsulating protocol.
