uIP configuration functions

The uIP configuration functions are used for setting run-time parameters in uIP such as IP addresses.

	Get the netmask. More...
#define	uip_setdraddr(addr)
	Set the default router's IP address. More...
#define	uip_setethaddr(eaddr)
	Specifiy the Ethernet MAC address. More...

#define uip_getdraddr

(

addr

)

Get the default router's IP address.

Parameters

addr	A pointer to a uip_ipaddr_t variable that will be filled in with the IP address of the default router.

#define uip_gethostaddr

(

addr

)

Get the IP address of this host.

The IP address is represented as a 4-byte array where the first octet of the IP address is put in the first member of the 4-byte array.

Example:

uip_ipaddr_t hostaddr;

uip_gethostaddr(&hostaddr);

Parameters

addr	A pointer to a uip_ipaddr_t variable that will be filled in with the currently configured IP address.

Referenced by send_rreq().

#define uip_getnetmask

(

addr

)

Get the netmask.

Parameters

addr	A pointer to a uip_ipaddr_t variable that will be filled in with the value of the netmask.

#define uip_setdraddr

(

addr

)

Set the default router's IP address.

Parameters

addr	A pointer to a uip_ipaddr_t variable containing the IP address of the default router.

uip_ipaddr()

#define uip_setethaddr

(

eaddr

)

Specifiy the Ethernet MAC address.

The ARP code needs to know the MAC address of the Ethernet card in order to be able to respond to ARP queries and to generate working Ethernet headers.

Note

This macro only specifies the Ethernet MAC address to the ARP code. It cannot be used to change the MAC address of the Ethernet card.

Parameters

eaddr

A pointer to a struct uip_eth_addr containing the Ethernet MAC address of the Ethernet card.

#define uip_sethostaddr

(

addr

)

Set the IP address of this host.

The IP address is represented as a 4-byte array where the first octet of the IP address is put in the first member of the 4-byte array.

Example:

uip_ipaddr_t addr;

uip_ipaddr(&addr, 192,168,1,2);
uip_sethostaddr(&addr);

Parameters

addr	A pointer to an IP address of type uip_ipaddr_t;

uip_ipaddr()

#define uip_setnetmask

(

addr

)

Set the netmask.

Parameters

addr	A pointer to a uip_ipaddr_t variable containing the IP address of the netmask.
