-          able to choose from among several alternative algorithms which can
-          then be attached to different network devices. This is useful for
-          example if some of your network devices are real time devices that
-          need a certain minimum data flow rate, or if you need to limit the
-          maximum data flow rate for traffic which matches specified criteria.
-          This code is considered to be experimental.
-          To administer these schedulers, you'll need the user-level utilities
-          from the package iproute2+tc at <ftp://ftp.tux.org/pub/net/ip-routing/>.
-          That package also contains some documentation; for more, check out
-          <http://snafu.freedom.org/linux2.2/iproute-notes.html>.
-          This Quality of Service (QoS) support will enable you to use
-          Differentiated Services (diffserv) and Resource Reservation Protocol
-          (RSVP) on your Linux router if you also say Y to "QoS support",
-          "Packet classifier API" and to some classifiers below. Documentation
-          and software is at <http://diffserv.sourceforge.net/>.
-          If you say Y here and to "/proc file system" below, you will be able
-          to read status information about packet schedulers from the file
-          /proc/net/psched.
-          The available schedulers are listed in the following questions; you
-          can say Y to as many as you like. If unsure, say N now.
