Can someone explain to me what that means? I thought unicast was the "normal" way to communicate via TCP/IP. So how could I address a ecos device, and how could I send requests to somewhere from an ecos device? Thank you. -- Before posting, please read the FAQ: http://ecos.sourceware.org/fom/ecos and search the list archive: http://ecos.sourceware.org/ml/ecos-discuss ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 3+ messages in thread

Normal network traffic, based on IP & ARP, works just fine :-) -- ------------------------------------------------------------ Gary Thomas | Consulting for the MLB Associates | Embedded world ------------------------------------------------------------ -- Before posting, please read the FAQ: http://ecos.sourceware.org/fom/ecos and search the list archive: http://ecos.sourceware.org/ml/ecos-discuss ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 3+ messages in thread

I wonder whether or not there's support for 'Mobile IP'. I saw that 'Mobile IP' is featured by newer KAME (FreeBSD IP Stack) releases as part of the IPv6 support. Does that mean that 'Mobile IP' is featured now, or will be featured, or can easily be integrated in eCOS, too?
