SSL

[LGR]

Somebody has probably asked for this already, and it's a big request, but I think adding SSL to net_ethernet would be extremely useful. I would imagine that it would be better to add it to the Libstock net_ethernet library than the built-in library, though I can't tell you exactly why.

I think that embedded security is quickly going to become important, and quite possibly required by law in some instances. I could be wrong about this, but every now and then I see some article about some politician concerned about the possibility of hacking into infrastructure, and embedded TCP/IP devices wll need some basic encryption abilities, or they're going to be unsuitable for a lot of seemingly mundane applications.

Hi,

This is on our wish list and as soon as the time allows, we should implement it.
