Hello everyone,
I've been looking at producing a low cost router (based on ARM) and I'm sure whether to use ecos or uClinux as a starting point. Both OS's provide TCP/IP stacks, however uClinux has a lot more code available for the basic router components (DCHP server, NAT, ARP, RARP, PPP even VPN). Ecos does have the advantage of being smaller (memory requirements) hence reduced hardware costs.
Has anybody tried implementing a router with either ecos uClinux, who can offer any comments ?
Have I missed any advantages/disadvantages I should be aware about with either ecos or uClinux ?
