hi guys, i have a board of LPC1788, the M3 core, and it use a external Ethernet controller which integrated MAC and PHY. I want to use RL_TCPnet firmware on the external Ethernet controller. Can RL_TCPnet work on this situation? If can, how to transplant? Thanks.
Yes, you can use external Ethernet controller, but only one. Yes, WEB server, telnet, FTP can exist and run side by side.

Georg, is there some way to solve using two external Ethernet controller on the driver layer? Like set a global flag to distinguish using different Ethernet controller for driver, as we know each socket's function.
RL_TCPNet has 3 network adapters: Ethernet, PPP and SLIP. Study source code for PPP and SLIP, then replace their functions with 2nd Ethernet.
Georg, you ask me to read the code of PPP and SLIP, you mean the driver source code for PPP and SLIP device and simulate a PPP or SLIP device with Ethernet controller? Because the RL_TCPnet only provide LIB file and few config files except the drviers.
Georg,there is one thing, in Net_Config.c only one MAC address can set , and the MAC address must as same as the Ethernet controller. How can i set two MAC address in the firmware?
