Hi Ania,
The connect function itself doesn't "do" much, but it's needed for
providing an Ethif.t for stack users -- either to build higher stack
layers (e.g. Ipv4.t, Ipv6.t) on top of, or to use directly in
applications where a user is building their own application on top
of the Ethernet layer.
I'm not sure I completely understood your question, though?

Hi all,
I am
wondering if connect function in ethif is required, as it
almost does nothing. I guess netif is the argument to the
functor ethif, which has already connected to an interface
through its own connect function.
Thanks.
