Alan is correct.
The "Digi RightSwitch" product did actually make it out to the real world.
Its basically a NIC card with a built-in switch, back when switches actually cost $$$.
Obviously its been commoditized in the marketplace to the point where its basically worthless now. =)
There were not that many produced or sold, and got "killed" pretty quick here at Digi.
I know Digi as a company would not care if the driver "went away" from the kernel sources as the product hasn't been sold in many many years...
However, there *might* actually still be users for said driver... Its just hard to say.
