									  Link Access Procedure, Balanced (LAPB) is the data link layer (i.e.
							 | 
						
					
						
							| 
								
							 | 
							
								
							 | 
							
								
							 | 
							
							
									  the lower) part of the X.25 protocol. It offers a reliable
							 | 
						
					
						
							| 
								
							 | 
							
								
							 | 
							
								
							 | 
							
							
									  connection service to exchange data frames with one other host, and
							 | 
						
					
						
							| 
								
							 | 
							
								
							 | 
							
								
							 | 
							
							
									  it is used to transport higher level protocols (mostly X.25 Packet
							 | 
						
					
						
							| 
								
							 | 
							
								
							 | 
							
								
							 | 
							
							
									  Layer, the higher part of X.25, but others are possible as well).
							 | 
						
					
						
							| 
								
							 | 
							
								
							 | 
							
								
							 | 
							
							
									  Usually, LAPB is used with specialized X.21 network cards, but Linux
							 | 
						
					
						
							| 
								
							 | 
							
								
							 | 
							
								
							 | 
							
							
									  currently supports LAPB only over Ethernet connections. If you want
							 | 
						
					
						
							| 
								
							 | 
							
								
							 | 
							
								
							 | 
							
							
									  to use LAPB connections over Ethernet, say Y here and to "LAPB over
							 | 
						
					
						
							|

							 | 
							
								
							 | 
							
								
							 | 
							
							
									  module will be called lapb.  If unsure, say N.
