Hello
Is it possible to implement a SLIP interface using a Rabbit processor.
I have an embedded project that I used to connect through to, using windows xp
with a SLIP interface set up on it (this allowed me to program my embedded
device).
Windows 7 has removed the SLIP interface and I am hoping that I can use a rabbit
to receive a request from a PC, translate it to SLIP and sent it out on a serial
port to my embedded device.
Can anyone offer any advice?
Many Thanks
Peter

You'll probably have to implement it yourself, possibly by porting some
existing code to the Rabbit.
Take a look at the PPP driver as an example of a point-to-point serial IP
link, you might be able to use that as a starting point, and just rewrite
the code that encodes/decodes packets.
