NirT 0:c00e6c923941 1 INTRODUCTION
NirT 0:c00e6c923941 2
NirT 0:c00e6c923941 3 lwIP is a small independent implementation of the TCP/IP protocol
NirT 0:c00e6c923941 4 suite that has been developed by Adam Dunkels at the Computer and
NirT 0:c00e6c923941 5 Networks Architectures (CNA) lab at the Swedish Institute of Computer
NirT 0:c00e6c923941 6 Science (SICS).
NirT 0:c00e6c923941 7
NirT 0:c00e6c923941 8 The focus of the lwIP TCP/IP implementation is to reduce the RAM usage
NirT 0:c00e6c923941 9 while still having a full scale TCP. This making lwIP suitable for use
NirT 0:c00e6c923941 10 in embedded systems with tens of kilobytes of free RAM and room for
NirT 0:c00e6c923941 11 around 40 kilobytes of code ROM.
NirT 0:c00e6c923941 12

NirT 0:c00e6c923941 35 DEVELOPMENT
NirT 0:c00e6c923941 36
NirT 0:c00e6c923941 37 lwIP has grown into an excellent TCP/IP stack for embedded devices,
NirT 0:c00e6c923941 38 and developers using the stack often submit bug fixes, improvements,
NirT 0:c00e6c923941 39 and additions to the stack to further increase its usefulness.
NirT 0:c00e6c923941 40
NirT 0:c00e6c923941 41 Development of lwIP is hosted on Savannah, a central point for
NirT 0:c00e6c923941 42 software development, maintenance and distribution. Everyone can
NirT 0:c00e6c923941 43 help improve lwIP by use of Savannah's interface, CVS and the
NirT 0:c00e6c923941 44 mailing list. A core team of developers will commit changes to the
NirT 0:c00e6c923941 45 CVS source tree.
NirT 0:c00e6c923941 46
NirT 0:c00e6c923941 47 The lwIP TCP/IP stack is maintained in the 'lwip' CVS module and
NirT 0:c00e6c923941 48 contributions (such as platform ports) are in the 'contrib' module.
NirT 0:c00e6c923941 49
NirT 0:c00e6c923941 50 See doc/savannah.txt for details on CVS server access for users and
NirT 0:c00e6c923941 51 developers.
NirT 0:c00e6c923941 52
NirT 0:c00e6c923941 53 Last night's CVS tar ball can be downloaded from:

NirT 0:c00e6c923941 64 DOCUMENTATION
NirT 0:c00e6c923941 65
NirT 0:c00e6c923941 66 The original out-dated homepage of lwIP and Adam Dunkels' papers on
NirT 0:c00e6c923941 67 lwIP are at the official lwIP home page:
NirT 0:c00e6c923941 68 http://www.sics.se/~adam/lwip/
NirT 0:c00e6c923941 69
NirT 0:c00e6c923941 70 Self documentation of the source code is regularly extracted from the
NirT 0:c00e6c923941 71 current CVS sources and is available from this web page:
NirT 0:c00e6c923941 72 http://www.nongnu.org/lwip/
NirT 0:c00e6c923941 73
NirT 0:c00e6c923941 74 There is now a constantly growin wiki about lwIP at
NirT 0:c00e6c923941 75 http://lwip.wikia.com/wiki/LwIP_Wiki
NirT 0:c00e6c923941 76
NirT 0:c00e6c923941 77 Also, there are mailing lists you can subscribe at
NirT 0:c00e6c923941 78 http://savannah.nongnu.org/mail/?group=lwip
NirT 0:c00e6c923941 79 plus searchable archives:
NirT 0:c00e6c923941 80 http://lists.nongnu.org/archive/html/lwip-users/
NirT 0:c00e6c923941 81 http://lists.nongnu.org/archive/html/lwip-devel/
NirT 0:c00e6c923941 82
NirT 0:c00e6c923941 83 Reading Adam's papers, the files in docs/, browsing the source code
NirT 0:c00e6c923941 84 documentation and browsing the mailing list archives is a good way to
NirT 0:c00e6c923941 85 become familiar with the design of lwIP.
