ABSTRACT:
A communication network end station is constituted by a host device including a processor and a memory; a bus; and a communication network interface device connected to the host device via the bus and, in use, to a communication network along which data is transmitted in accordance with a network protocol. The communication network interface device includes a processor which transfers data to and from the network in accordance with the network protocol. The control code for operating the processor is stored in the host device memory. The processor is adapted to route incoming data and associated network protocol information, as it is received, to the host device memory. The bus is capable of transmitting data and associated network protocol information at a speed compatible with the operating speed of the communication network.
