It seems that most people work on ixp1200 boards with a debug ethernet port, which can be used to boot and then debug, with tools such as WorkBench, the board. While, ENP2505 from Radisys without such a port. It can be booted by the host machine via PCI. And when booted, a pair of psedo ethernet interfaces are setup also via PCI, for the communication between the board and the host. It's convenient and efficient. Yet, just wonder, is it still possible for it to be used in an unhosted environment? Is there any idea from those who also uses ENP2505?
