+ <code>CONFIG_NET_SLIP</code>: Selects the Serial Line Internet Protocol (SLIP) data link layer.
+ The default data link layer for uIP is Ethernet.
+ If <code>CONFIG_NET_SLIP</code> is defined in the NuttX header file, then SLIP will be supported.
+ The basic differences between the SLIP and Ethernet configurations is that when SLIP is selected:
+ <ul>
+ <li>The link level header (that comes before the IP header) is omitted.</li>
+ <li>All MAC address processing is suppressed.</li>
+ <li>ARP is disabled.</li>
+ </ul>
+ If <code>CONFIG_NET_SLIP</code> is not supported, then Ethernet will be used
