Embedded Web Server Help!!

[smartsarath2003]

Hi,
I am looking at a very simple embedded web server using a micro controller(LPC1114). Initially I thought to use HTML- TCP - IP & ICMP - SLIP - RS232. In this method, my micro UART was connected to PC serial port. As you see I am not using MAC controller in the Link layer, rather using SLIP-Serial Line Internet Protocol.

Now I come across PPPoE (Point to Point Protocol over Ethernet) and want to replace the previous SLIP. My goal is to eliminate the host PC and want to connect my web server board straight to router using ethernet interface.

Does any body know if this is possible at all i.e. with HTML-TCP-IP/ICMP-PPPoE-Ethernet???
or am I dreaming something not possible.:!:

Please can some body help.

Many Thanks

Hi,
No replies
May be I can put the question in another way :idea:

Is it possible to design embedded web server with out a MAC chip??.

My web server is intended to be always on internal LAN and I plan to access it using external ip of the home router(which is configured to forward incoming tcp ports to my web server). So I want to be on ethernet (internal LAN of my home), but do not want to use MAC layer!!

Is this possible :!::!::!:

Thanks in advance
