Yes, thats what FPGA means. :-) There's an external Ethernet Phy and and the MAC is a hardmacro on the FPGA. The disk is connected with a SATA interface. Both sides should be able to process jumboframes and, as I wrote, they do, when I use the aoe-exercise tool. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by the Moblin Your Move Developer's challenge Build the coolest Linux based applications with Moblin SDK & win great prizes Grand prize is a trip for two to an Open Source event anywhere in the world http://moblin-contest.org/redirect.php?banner_id=100&url=/ _______________________________________________ Aoetools-discuss mailing list Aoetools-discuss@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/aoetools-discuss
