><P
100
>There is a USB standard for the protocol to be used between the host
101
and a class of communication devices, including ethernet. However, the
102
eCos USB-ethernet package does not implement this protocol: the target
103
hardware for which the package was first developed had certain
104
limitations, and could not implement the standard. Instead, the package
105
implements a simple new protocol.</P
106
><P
107
>A USB-ethernet peripheral involves bulk transfers on two endpoints:
108
one endpoint will be used for packets from host to peripheral and the
109
other will be used for the opposite direction. Transfers in both
110
directions are variable length, with a lower limit of 16 bytes and an
111
upper limit of 1516 bytes. The first two bytes of each transfer
112
constitute a header specific to USB-ethernet. The next 14 bytes form
113
the normal header for an ethernet frame: destination MAC address,
114
source MAC address, and a protocol field. The remaining data, up to
115
1500 bytes, are the payload. The first two bytes give the size of the
116
ethernet frame, least significant byte first, with a value between 14
117
and 1514.</P
118
><P
119
>For example an ARP request from host to peripheral involves an
120
ethernet frame of 42 bytes (0x002A), with the usual 14-byte header and
121
a 28-byte payload. The destination is the broadcast address
122
0xFFFFFFFFFFFF. The source depends on the MAC address specified for
123
the host in the call to <A
