Using static address with DHCP server

naeem ahmad

Hi,

Keil Ethernet stack

I have trouble using static address when If I cannot find DHCP Server.
I enable Dynamic Host Configuration in Net_Config_ETH_0.h
I also specified my static ip address==192.168.0.100 and static Default Gateway =192.168.0.1.
Primary DNS Gateway =192.168.0.1.

I am connecting directly my Embedded device ethernet to PC.
My PC has static IP address = 192.168.0.1

If I disable Dynamic Host Configuration in Net_Config_ETH_0.h then it all works.

I thought If it cannot find DHCP server it will fallback back to using static DNS server which is my PC.

Kindly suggest what is wrong with my configuration. Does Keil Ethernet stack supports fallback?

Thanks,
Naeem

    I can't see any mention of version.

    Looks like you're doing something wrong. Keil introduced the autoip feature into their stack a few years back. it uses it after a dhcp timeout. At the time, i asked them if it could be disabled and they said it couldn't.

    It still works as I saw it work back then.
