bool "Wan interfaces support"
help
Wide Area Networks (WANs), such as X.25, Frame Relay and leased
lines, are used to interconnect Local Area Networks (LANs) over vast
distances with data transfer rates significantly higher than those
achievable with commonly used asynchronous modem connections.
Usually, a quite expensive external device called a `WAN router' is
needed to connect to a WAN. As an alternative, a relatively
inexpensive WAN interface card can allow your Linux box to directly
connect to a WAN.
If you have one of those cards and wish to use it under Linux,
say Y here and also to the WAN driver for your card.
If unsure, say N.

help
Support for the FarSync T-Series X.21 (and V.35/V.24) cards by
FarSite Communications Ltd.
Synchronous communication is supported on all ports at speeds up to
8Mb/s (128K on V.24) using synchronous PPP, Cisco HDLC, raw HDLC,
Frame Relay or X.25/LAPB.
If you want the module to be automatically loaded when the interface
is referenced then you should add "alias hdlcX farsync" to a file
in /etc/modprobe.d/ for each interface, where X is 0, 1, 2, ..., or
simply use "alias hdlc* farsync" to indicate all of them.
To compile this driver as a module, choose M here: the
module will be called farsync.
