ping from MCB2300 with RTL TcpNet

Nagaraj K

Hi,

I would need to ping from the MCB2300 to a fixed IP address. I would like to know how to implement this in MCB2300 using the RTL TcpNet library.

Please provide some answers on how I can go about to achieve this.

Thanks and with regards,
- Nagi

    This is currently not supported. For now only ping requests are answered.

    However there are other ways to check if the remote host is alive or not. For the local LAN you might use the command arp_cache_ip function.

    Dear Franc,

    Actually, I am using a PPP connection (over GPRS) and sometimes it goes into a state wherein data transfer doesn't take place. I need to ping the remote site periodically to see if it is up.

    Is there anyway for me to achieve a 'ping' functionality from RTL TcpNet?

    Thanks and with regards,
    - Nagi
