Device Driver Software for Link Street™ SOHO Switches

Marvell offers device driver software to enable you to quickly port and integrate applications to our Link Street™ Small Office/Home Office (SOHO) line of switches, including the 88E5050, 88E6051 and 88E6052 SOHO switch devices. The driver provides a well-defined Application Programming Interface (API) for programming and configuring the device, eliminating the need to learn and dabble with low level register based programming. The software is based on a layered and modular architecture to enable maximum flexibility and ease of porting to desired hardware and software platforms. The driver and API are compatible across all versions of Marvell SOHO switches, allowing for easy code migration across multiple generations of designs.
