Raw gigabit ethernet i/o for Linux host

Status: closed (fixed)

Reported by: eb Assigned to: eb
Priority: normal Milestone: to-be-decided
Component: usrp2 Version: 3.1svn
Keywords: Cc:

Create host code to send and receive gigabit ethernet packets to the USRP2. In addition to normal ethernet frame i/o, the code should be able to transmit multicast and/or broadcast packets to locate all USRP2's on a network.

Once it's working, investigate using PF_RING and/or Phil Wood's memory mapped pcap for high-rate input. Check out the linux kernel packet generator for ideas about high-rate output.

Harald Welte's a good resource on this stuff. http://gnumonks.org/~laforge/weblog
