Greetings,
I have some equipment that i need to remotely power control, and i would like to "design"
a device that can do this for me. Its no big deal to do if i could get away with just HTTP. This i can be done with an arduino and a W5500.
Wired is needed, as there is no wireless at the spot where, i need to put up the device. If i had access to WiFi a esp8266 would do the job just fine.
In principle the type/brand of micro controller does not matter, however im not capable of writing any of the stacks that are needed. Ideally something that could be made to work from within the Arduino ide, or perhaps Mikroeletronica's C compilers would be fine aswell.
I dont want to use a SBC for this, i dont want to deal with the full overhead of an OS to run and patch.
So to make a list of what i would like to see.
1. MCU with wired ethernet through W5500 or similar is great
2. Webserver with HTTPS or SSH connection would be a good alternative
3. Programmable with the Arduino IDE, including sample HTTPS webserver/ssh servers would be ideal, so i only really have to deal with the hardware.
I cant possible be the only one with this need, or are systems like this done using SBS nowadays. Regular arduinos are not fast enough or have enough memory to deal with the encryption.
