8	  Link Access Procedure, Balanced (LAPB) is the data link layer (i.e.
9	  the lower) part of the X.25 protocol. It offers a reliable
10	  connection service to exchange data frames with one other host, and
11	  it is used to transport higher level protocols (mostly X.25 Packet
12	  Layer, the higher part of X.25, but others are possible as well).
13	  Usually, LAPB is used with specialized X.21 network cards, but Linux
14	  currently supports LAPB only over Ethernet connections. If you want
15	  to use LAPB connections over Ethernet, say Y here and to "LAPB over
16	  Ethernet driver" below. Read
17	  <file:Documentation/networking/lapb-module.txt> for technical
18	  details.

20	  To compile this driver as a module, choose M here: the
21	  module will be called lapb.  If unsure, say N.
