-@cindex ethertap
-For kernels up to 2.4.0, you need a kernel that supports the ethertap device.
-Most distributions come with kernels that already support this.
-If not, here are the options you have to turn on when configuring a new kernel:
-
-@example
-Code maturity level options
-[*] Prompt for development and/or incomplete code/drivers
-Networking options
-[*] Kernel/User netlink socket
-<M> Netlink device emulation
-Network device support
-<M> Ethertap network tap
-@end example
-
-If you want to run more than one instance of tinc or other programs that use
-the ethertap, you have to compile the ethertap driver as a module, otherwise
-you can also choose to compile it directly into the kernel.
-
-If you decide to build any of these as dynamic kernel modules, it's a good idea
-to add these lines to @file{/etc/modules.conf}:
-
-@example
-alias char-major-36 netlink_dev
-alias tap0 ethertap
-options tap0 -o tap0 unit=0
-alias tap1 ethertap
-options tap1 -o tap1 unit=1
-...
-alias tap@emph{N} ethertap
-options tap@emph{N} -o tap@emph{N} unit=@emph{N}
-@end example
-
-Add as much alias/options lines as necessary.
