Nucleo-F429ZI restarts after one hour

Hello, I was experiencing some issues (reboot of the board) when I tested on STM32CubeMx, so I’ve tried mbed.

The program is a pure test based on mbed-os using the online ide. the principle one main thread that starts the others. one thread sending udp messages, one thread printing messages, one thread blinking a led, main displays the threads’ status. All is fine during 1 hour and it looks like the board/program restarts. I check the dhcp lease time. I must miss something and do not know where to search. Any help is welcome. Below is the code if it can help.

You will see commented parts, they are experiments with mailbox inter-thread comms. As program crashed at the very beginning, I removed it for now.

Hi, you need to edit your code or it's hard to read.
