ADIN2111, can it be used as a 3 port switch between both T1L and Host?

    Thread Summary
    
                The user asked if the ADIN2111 can be used as a 3-port switch and if the SPI can transfer Ethernet connections to the host. The ADIN2111 can be configured for port-to-port or port-to-host (SPI) traffic, and the SPI can be used to transfer Ethernet connections to the host, similar to the ADIN1110. A code example in the Non-OS System Driver package demonstrates running a webserver on the ADIN2111 host side.

    I would like to create an expanding network and we thought of using the ADIN2111 as a 3 port switch.
    

    Can we use the ADIN2111 as a 3 port switch or is it limited to switching between both 10Base-T1L lines?
    

    Can the SPI be used to transfert Ethernet connection to the host as the ADIN1110 does?

      Hi  ,
      

      See my comments below

      Yes the switch can be configured to allow port-to-port or port-to-host(SPI) traffic. Moreover, port-to-port traffic can also be forwarded to the SPI host using the destination address filtering rules.
      

      See the Frame Forwarding on Receive figure in the Datasheet Rev.0 p.45 for more information on the frame forwarding logic.

      Yes, we actually have a code example in our Non-OS System Driver package showing how to run the LwIP stack on the ADIN2111 host side to deploy a simple webserver. The example project runs on the EVAL-ADIN2111EBZ but can be easily ported to a different platform as described in the driver user guide.
      

      Regards,
