Greetings,

To implement Ping, IP, and UDP over your SLIP would not be a big
project. Whether it would be useful, other than learning about the
protocols is hard to say. It would certainly be educational.  I
recommend that you download the smalltcp.zip file and take a look at
ip.jal and icmp.jal to get a feel for the amount of work that would be
involved. Then look at udp.jal - not much more work.  chksum.jal could
be simplified with JALV2 variables and math.  netbuf.jal would perhaps
be replaced with Matt's large arrays?

For Ping, IP, UDP, etc, documentation, take a look at the docs and
references (some links are bad but the RFC numbers are OK) in Jal
Ethernet on sourceforge. http://jalethernet.sourceforge.net/docs.html

SLIP is old, but OK for a point-to-point link over wires.  It might
not be very be useful for wireless, since it doesn't provide a means
for addressing a particular node. But perhaps it could be used with
broadcasts or multicast schemes.  I'd have to think about that awhile.

William
