The IStaX (VSC6817SDK) Linux Application Software Package is a turnkey Industrial Ethernet switch solution designed to support Microchip's managed Ethernet switch devices. The software uses the latest Linux operating system for optimal performance and cost effective implementation. Management is performed using a Web GUI, Command Line Interface (CLI), Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP), or Java Script Object Notation Remote Procedure Call (JSON RPC). The VSC6817SDK is highly integrated with advanced L2 switch features such as QCLs and ACLs, and includes support for synchronization functions such as Synchronous Ethernet, IEEE 1588, and protection functions including linear and ring protection.
The latest IStaX Linux Software Package (Ver. 2021.03) is available for download on MicrochipDirect.com.
