[ECOS] Stopping and restarting Ethernet LAN

[Geoff Patch]

Hi Folks,

I'd like to be able to stop and restart the ethernet interface to my board. 
 I know that the ethernet driver provides functions for doing this, but I'm 
unsure what the correct technique is for accessing those functions from my 
application code.

At the moment, it looks like I need to search through the network device 
table until I find the interface named "eth0",  and then access the driver 
functions through the device_instance field of the cyg_netdevtab_entry_t 
struct. Is this correct, or is there any easier way to do it?  I have the 
feeling that I might have got bogged down in the details of the driver and 
missed something obvious.

Thanks in Advance


Geoff
