from fwip manual
---------------
The fwip driver provides standard IP over FireWire (IEEE 1394) based
on
the protocols described in RFC 2734 and RFC 3146.
The firewire(4) and fwohci(4) drivers must be configured in the
kernel as
well.
This driver supports polling(4) as well if it is compiled with the
DEVICE_POLLING option.
-------
i have two machines with firewire, both are servers sits side to side and
exchange lots of data between them. how can i connect them through
firewire?
are some special cables OK?
and fwip assigns
lladdr 0.c5.ba.74.0.0.1a.4d.a.2.ff.fe.0.0.0.0
does it mean firewire "network" can be like ethernet - with more than 2
ends?
please give me URL about it. thanks!
