摘要:
A method for providing control information between a host and a home phone line network via an Ethernet controller includes: determining if the control information is to be transmitted to the home phone line network or is received from the home phone line network; generating a first home phone line network data frame from a frame control frame (FCF) and a corresponding first Ethernet data frame received from the Ethernet controller, if the control information is to be transmitted to the home phone line network; and generating a second Ethernet data frame and a corresponding frame status frame (FSF) from a second home phone line network data frame received from the home phone line network, if the control information is received from the hoMe phone line network. Control information is thus provided between the host and the HPNA network via an Ethernet controller without requiring additional hardware or special interfaces.
