Smallest IP Target Device?

Posted by Cliff on from the latest-from-Q-branch dept.

Donimo asks: "I have seen many tiny ethernet loopback jacks and keyfobs, and I'm looking for the smallest IP equivalent for my toolkit. It just needs to plug into an RJ45 ethernet port and respond to ping. If the IP address is configurable, so much the better. I have looked at small IP print servers, and I could probably knock one up from a Gumstix but these are comparatively expensive solutions. Any ideas?"

    I haven't seen an ethernet solution smaller than this. Plenty of 'play' IP implementations, using slip, but not ethernet.
