A system, providing a communication interface, is provided. The system includes an embedded device and a host. The embedded device includes an Ethernet controller that is connected to a communication bus on the host. The host includes device drivers of the Ethernet controller. Therefore, no special host-side software is required to establish the communication between the embedded device and the host.
