Hi,

I have a bit complex setup with a box with three NICs, two of them connected 
to two industrial robots and another to our network. 

The NIC connected to our network has three IPs, one for the box and the other 
two routed using iptables to the other NICs, resending the packages to each 
industrial robot. The other NICs has another IP rang. The idea is that the 
industrial robot NIC are connected with this box using a cross cable, so no 
switch, etc. 

With this setup, anyone from our network can connect to any robot, because use 
the IP that is routed to the NIC connected to the robot.

The box now is running xenomai and I'm thinking to change from the standard 
driver to RTnet. However I don't know if it's worthwhile because neither of 
the industrial robot uses rtnet and I need the iptables infrastructure for 
another applications.

So, can I use a rtnet device as a _normal_ eth device?

Best regards,

Leo
