+CONFIG_DGRS
+  This is support for the Digi International RightSwitch series of
+  PCI/EISA ethernet switch cards.  These include the SE-4 and the SE-6
+  models. If you have a network card of this type, say Y and read
+  the Ethernet-HOWTO, available via ftp (user: anonymous) in
+  sunsite.unc.edu:/pub/Linux/docs/HOWTO.  More specific information is
+  contained in drivers/net/README.dgrs. This driver is also available
+  as a module ( = code which can be inserted in and removed from the
+  running kernel whenever you want). If you want to compile it as a
+  module, say M here and read Documentation/modules.txt as well as
+  Documentation/networking/net-modules.txt. If you plan to use more
+  than one network card under linux, read the
+  Multiple-Ethernet-mini-HOWTO, available from
+  sunsite.unc.edu:/pub/Linux/docs/HOWTO/mini.
