Hi Guys,

Just wanna share,

http://www.cisco.com/warp/public/697/dlswts8.html

There is a nice small conversion table in this article, and you can get the
result in 2 steps.

Coversion then,
do the bit swapping -
In each octet:
Swap the 2nd bit with the 1st bit and do the same with the 3rd and 4th bit.

Cheers~
Jacky
