Hi,
maybe this is out of topic, but:
i have an embedded system with two lan adapters running linux, i would
like to wire a lot of it in a "daisy chain way":
sys1 sys2 sys3 sysn-1
sysn
+-----------+ +-----------+ +-----------+ +-----------+
+-----------+
| eth0 eth1 | | eth0 eth1 | | eth0 eth1 | | eth0 eth1 |
| eth0 eth1 |
+-----------+ +-----------+ +-----------+ +-----------+
+-----------+
| | | | | | |
| |
+--------+ +-----x----+ +-----x----+ +-----x----+
+-----x----+
| switch | cross-cable
+--------+
This approach eliminate the need of expensive switches.
It's feasible?
how (bridging, routing?)
There is a limit of chaining devices number?
Any help will be appreciated.
