TCP/IP for small memory devices

[Derick Hammond]

Hi Joel, Eric:

I was perhaps a little misleading in my last post.

The specifications of the target board are:

         512KByte EPROM used .text
         128KByte RAM used for .data .bss and heap

Does this improve my chances with the RTEMS TCP/IP Stack?

Regards,
Derick
