12This document describes the RTEMS specific parts of the FreeBSD TCP/IP
13stack.  Much of this documentation was written by Eric Norum
14(@email{eric@@skatter.usask.ca})
15of the Saskatchewan Accelerator Laboratory
16who also ported the FreeBSD TCP/IP stack to RTEMS.

25"This site provides extensive information about Ethernet
26(IEEE 802.3) local area network (LAN) technology. Including
27the original 10 Megabit per second (Mbps) system, the 100 Mbps
28Fast Ethernet system (802.3u), and the Gigabit Ethernet system (802.3z)."

40This book provides detailed introduction to TCP/IP and includes diagnostic
41programs which are publicly available.

43@item @cite{TCP/IP Illustrated, Volume 2 : The Implementation} by W. Richard
44Stevens and Gary Wright (ISBN: 020163354X)
45
46This book focuses on implementation issues regarding TCP/IP.  The
47treat for RTEMS users is that the implementation covered is the BSD
48stack with most of the source code described in detail.

53This book describes how to write basic TCP/IP applications, again with primary
54focus on the BSD stack.
