New! TCP/IP Memory Footprint

How big is the TCP/IP implementation in the RL-ARM
RealView® Real-Time Library?

500 bytes is not a realistic RAM footprint for TCP/IP. My company is currently deciding on whether to implement ethernet. Any help would be appreciated.

It is quite hard to give all the size requirements for the indivitual components (since there are so many). Instead we have measured the applications.

That helps, but what about the code that actually runs the TCP/IP stack, as in ethernet? The second article looks like we can get the IP communucation RAM usage down to 4KB? We just need to communicate via IP and a small FTP server, which I assume would be:

TFTP Server 20,016 Bytes ROM 24,312 Bytes RAM

+ the 4KB minimum. Is this correct?

Thanks for any help in advance!
