+config WAN
+ 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.

+ Driver for COSA and SRP synchronous serial boards.
+
+ These boards allow to connect synchronous serial devices (for example
+ base-band modems, or any other device with the X.21, V.24, V.35 or
+ V.36 interface) to your Linux box. The cards can work as the
+ character device, synchronous PPP network device, or the Cisco HDLC
+ network device.
+
+ You will need user-space utilities COSA or SRP boards for downloading
+ the firmware to the cards and to set them up. Look at the
+ <http://www.fi.muni.cz/~kas/cosa/> for more information. You can also
+ read the comment at the top of the <file:drivers/net/wan/cosa.c> for

+ As a replacement, some vendors provide a way to assert the PCI #RST
+ pin of DSCC4 through the GPIO port of the card. If you choose Y,
+ the driver will make use of this feature before module removal
+ (i.e. rmmod). The feature is known to be available on Commtech's
+ cards. Contact your manufacturer for details.
+
+ Say Y if your card supports this feature.
