Hi all

I need to develop a USB device driver for a custom
made switch. I shall give a brief description.

 The switch (which is connected to the USB port of a
Linux box running REdHat 7.1) has four RJ 45
connectors for ethernet cables and it needs to
exchange data packets of size 8 bytes every .5
seconds. The Transmit ethernet port(1,2,3,4) and
Receive ethernet port(1,2,3,4) need to be selected for
each transfer and the data packet which is to be sent
out and received on those ports changes accordingly.

Please let me know how I can start off writing the
code for  this driver.

Also please let me know if there are any SIMILAR
device drivers already developed and available.

I am aware of the files
usr/src/linux/drivers/usb/usb.*
but as I have no prior experience with device drivers,
I am unable to start off.

Regards,
Sanjeev.
