On: Making a Linux-managed network switch

[stragies]

Nice article, Thank you for the write-up.

First time I saw somebody 'creatively using' an RTL83something switch was https://spritesmods.com/?art=rtl8366sb, and there were others since then, but yours was the first 'build my own managed switch', instead of 'adding an external brain to an unmanaged switch'

Ah yes the legendary sprite_tm, I've come across this while writing my own raspberry pi firmware to manage the switch over USB.
