Iam using Redhat Linux 7.2
My kernal version is 2.4.18-3

Iam new to linux.Iam trying to rum SCPS gateway in our testbed.For that 
I have to complie Linux 2.4.X


Before compiling the SCPS code, the underlying kernel support number 
must be enabled.  The following supporting software must be obtained and 
installed from other sources if not already present on the system.

   tun/tap modules from http://vtun.sourceforge.net/tun
   brctl from http://bridge.sourceforge.net



In order to run the SCPS gateway under the Linux operation system via 
the TAP method, the following kernel configuration options must be 
enabled before configuring the SCPS software.



UNDER NETWORKING OPTIONS

802.1d Ethernet Bridging

UNDER NETWORKING DEVICE

Universal TUN/TAP device driver support



So I have my BRCTL working.I have also downloaded the tun/tap driver.

I would like to configure my kernal to enable ethernet bridging and 
universal TUN/TAP device driver support.I really dont know how to do it.

Please help me out.

Thanks
