7 KISS is a protocol used for the exchange of data between a computer
8 and a Terminal Node Controller (a small embedded system commonly
9 used for networking over AX.25 amateur radio connections; it
10 connects the computer's serial port with the radio's microphone
11 input and speaker output).
12
13 Although KISS is less advanced than the 6pack protocol, it has
14 the advantage that it is already supported by most modern TNCs
15 without the need for a firmware upgrade.

18 will be called mkiss.

22 depends on AX25 && TTY
23 help
24 6pack is a transmission protocol for the data exchange between your
25 PC and your TNC (the Terminal Node Controller acts as a kind of
26 modem connecting your computer's serial port to your radio's
27 microphone input and speaker output). This protocol can be used as
28 an alternative to KISS for networking over AX.25 amateur radio
29 connections, but it has some extended functionality.

31 Note that this driver is still experimental and might cause
32 problems. For details about the features and the usage of the
33 driver, read <file:Documentation/networking/6pack.rst>.

41 help
42 AX.25 is the protocol used for computer communication over amateur
43 radio. If you say Y here, you will be able to send and receive AX.25
44 traffic over Ethernet (also called "BPQ AX.25"), which could be
45 useful if some other computer on your local network has a direct
46 amateur radio connection.

48config DMASCC
49 tristate "High-speed (DMA) SCC driver for AX.25"
50 depends on ISA && AX25 && BROKEN_ON_SMP && ISA_DMA_API
51 help
52 This is a driver for high-speed SCC boards, i.e. those supporting
53 DMA on one port. You usually use those boards to connect your
54 computer to an amateur radio modem (such as the WA4DSY 56kbps
55 modem), in order to send and receive AX.25 packet radio network
56 traffic.
57
58 Currently, this driver supports Ottawa PI/PI2, Paccomm/Gracilis
59 PackeTwin, and S5SCC/DMA boards. They are detected automatically.
60 If you have one of these cards, say Y here and read the AX25-HOWTO,
61 available from <http://www.tldp.org/docs.html#howto>.
62
63 This driver can operate multiple boards simultaneously. If you
64 compile it as a module (by saying M instead of Y), it will be called
65 dmascc. If you don't pass any parameter to the driver, all
66 possible I/O addresses are probed. This could irritate other devices
67 that are currently not in use. You may specify the list of addresses
68 to be probed by "dmascc.io=addr1,addr2,..." (when compiled into the
69 kernel image) or "io=addr1,addr2,..." (when loaded as a module). The
70 network interfaces will be called dmascc0 and dmascc1 for the board
71 detected first, dmascc2 and dmascc3 for the second one, and so on.
72
73 Before you configure each interface with ifconfig, you MUST set
74 certain parameters, such as channel access timing, clock mode, and
75 DMA channel. This is accomplished with a small utility program,
76 dmascc_cfg, available at
77 <http://www.linux-ax25.org/wiki/Ax25-tools>. Please be sure to
78 get at least version 1.27 of dmascc_cfg, as older versions will not
79 work with the current driver.

122 This is one of two drivers for Baycom style simple amateur radio
123 modems that connect to a serial interface. The driver supports the
124 ser12 design in full-duplex mode. In addition, it allows the
125 baudrate to be set between 300 and 4800 baud (however not all modems
126 support all baudrates). This is the preferred driver. The next
127 driver, "BAYCOM ser12 half-duplex driver for AX.25" is the old
