Summary: USB device sharing system over IP network
Description:
The USB/IP Project aims to develop a general USB device sharing system
over IP network. To share USB devices between computers with their full
functionality, USB/IP encapsulates "USB requests" into IP packets and
transmits them between computers. Original USB device drivers and
applications can be also used for remote USB devices without any
modification of them. A computer can use remote USB devices as if they
were directly attached; for example, we can:
- USB storage devices: fdisk, mkfs, mount/umount, file operations,
play a DVD movie and record a DVD-R media.
- USB keyboards and USB mice: use with linux console and X Window
System.
- USB webcams and USB speakers: view webcam, capture image data and
play some music.
- USB printers, USB scanners, USB serial converters and USB Ethernet
interfaces: ok, use fine.
