Realtek Remote Control Protocol
The Realtek Remote Control Protocol (RRCP), developed by Realtek, is an Application layer protocol, running directly over an Ethernet frames. Main idea behind this protocol is to allow direct access to the Ethernet switch controller's internal register over an Ethernet network itself. This approach allows to avoid cost of including a processor, RAM, Flash memory, etc. in a managed Ethernet switch. Instead, all "intelligence" is targeted to reside in a nearby computer, running special RRCP-aware Ethernet switch management software.

Famous quotes containing the words remote and/or control:
“To the young mind, every thing is individual, stands by itself. By and by, it finds how to join two things, and see in them one nature; then three, then three thousand; and so, tyrannized over by its own unifying instinct, it goes on tying things together, diminishing anomalies, discovering roots running underground, whereby contrary and remote things cohere, and flower out from one stem.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
“Men who have been raised violently have every reason to believe it is appropriate for them to control others through violence; they feel no compunction over being violent to women, children, and one another.”
—Frank Pittman (20th century)
