devices connected peer to peer ?</DIV>
<DIV><BR></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Hello,</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>In one of our project we need to connect one IMX
27 based baord which ahs a internal FEC controller & an MPC 8323RDb baord
which has a Built in Network controller.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>We need to connect the IMX27 based board to MPC
board thro cross cable & MPC baord has wlan AP card . </FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Basically we want to communicate from IMX27 to
wireless network. Hence we are planning to make follwoing arranage ment as
given in the attached ppt & <FONT face="Times New Roman" size=3> we
use bridge as per this site<BR></FONT><A

<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>If we use external network controller we can
acheive teh communication as desired by bridging ra0 ( wlan ) &
eth0 on MPC baord . BUt if we use IMX27 internal FEC controller we are unable
to acheive the communication by bridging the eth0 & ra0 on MPC baord.
</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Anything setting to be done on the IMX 27 board?
( kernel configs, or specofoc protocol related configs?) </FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>If we don't do teh bridging on the MPC side, we
can communicate directly from IMX27 to MPC thor cross connection ( without
bridging)</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Can we get some inputs? has anybody tried
similarly earlier ?</FONT></DIV>
