Realtek Remote Control Protocol

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:

    Science is nothing but the finding of analogy, identity, in the most remote parts.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    America is not so much a nightmare as a non-dream. The American non-dream is precisely a move to wipe the dream out of existence. The dream is a spontaneous happening and therefore dangerous to a control system set up by the non-dreamers.
    William Burroughs (b. 1914)
