I have no idea about it , who can tell me what shall I do for the software step by step or recomended me a good schematic? Thank you very much! Best Regards! Fei WU3 Replies
Altera_ForumHi,
this is what Linux can do very well. To play around I recommend to use a desktop Linux machine with some networkcards in it. Then try to setup your router with iptables, route and so on. If you are satisfied try to move to the Nios.- Altera_Forum

You may find some routers based on uClinux. Thought they are not Nios2, you can learn a lot.
