# IPv6 configuration

#   IPv6 as module will cause a CRASH if you try to unload it
config IPV6
	tristate "The IPv6 protocol"
	default m
	select CRYPTO if IPV6_PRIVACY
	select CRYPTO_MD5 if IPV6_PRIVACY
	---help---
	  This is complemental support for the IP version 6.
	  You will still be able to do traditional IPv4 networking as well.

	  For general information about IPv6, see
	  <http://playground.sun.com/pub/ipng/html/ipng-main.html>.
	  For Linux IPv6 development information, see <http://www.linux-ipv6.org>.
	  For specific information about IPv6 under Linux, read the HOWTO at
	  <http://www.bieringer.de/linux/IPv6/>.

	  To compile this protocol support as a module, choose M here: the 
	  module will be called ipv6.

config IPV6_PRIVACY
	bool "IPv6: Privacy Extensions (RFC 3041) support"
	depends on IPV6
	---help---
	  Privacy Extensions for Stateless Address Autoconfiguration in IPv6
	  support.  With this option, additional periodically-alter 
	  pseudo-random global-scope unicast address(es) will assigned to
	  your interface(s).
	
	  By default, kernel do not generate temporary addresses.
	  To use temporary addresses, do
	
	        echo 2 >/proc/sys/net/ipv6/conf/all/use_tempaddr 

	  See <file:Documentation/networking/ip-sysctl.txt> for details.

	depends on IPV6
	select XFRM
	select CRYPTO
	select CRYPTO_HMAC
	select CRYPTO_MD5
	select CRYPTO_SHA1
	---help---
	  Support for IPsec AH.

	  If unsure, say Y.

config INET6_ESP
	tristate "IPv6: ESP transformation"
	depends on IPV6
	select XFRM
	select CRYPTO
	select CRYPTO_HMAC
	select CRYPTO_MD5
	select CRYPTO_SHA1
	select CRYPTO_DES
	---help---
	  Support for IPsec ESP.

	  If unsure, say Y.

config INET6_IPCOMP
	tristate "IPv6: IPComp transformation"
	depends on IPV6
	select XFRM
	select INET6_TUNNEL
	select CRYPTO
	select CRYPTO_DEFLATE
	---help---
	  Support for IP Payload Compression Protocol (IPComp) (RFC3173),
	  typically needed for IPsec.

	  If unsure, say Y.

config INET6_TUNNEL
	tristate "IPv6: tunnel transformation"
	depends on IPV6
	select XFRM
	---help---
	  Support for generic IPv6-in-IPv6 tunnel transformation, which is
	  required by the IPv6-in-IPv6 tunneling module as well as tunnel mode
	  IPComp.
	  
	  If unsure, say Y.

config IPV6_TUNNEL
	tristate "IPv6: IPv6-in-IPv6 tunnel"
	depends on IPV6
	---help---
	  Support for IPv6-in-IPv6 tunnels described in RFC 2473.

	  If unsure, say N.
