Hello,
I'm trying to implement a layer 2 protocol (1588 PTPv2) on the top of the Ethernet layer. According to the standard's documentation, this protocol requires a special EtherType and doesn't need IP (or above) layers. I was thinking to implement this using LWIP because I'm also using freeRTOS and it is perfectly working with LWIP. However, LWIP Ethernet layer does not seem to offer a configurable options for upper layer (other than IPv4/IPv6). So before starting I would like to benefit from your knowledge...
- Do you think LWIP is a good choice to do this implementation?
- Is there any example projects or information resources to guide me through this?
- if not LWIP, then can you recommend me a different solution? (not forgetting that freeRTOS is a main part of my project).
Thank you.
Kind Regrards,
Kamil Alkhouri
