HTTP Server serving a simple webpage which enables to remotely turn LED1 on/off. Compile, download, run and type 'IP_address/secret/' (don't forget the last '/') into your web browser and hit ENTER.

Fork of WebSwitch_mbed-os by Zoltan Hudak

Turn LED1, or other digital output, on/off using a web browser.

In this example we create a HTTP server that will serve a simple Web page to remotely turn LED1, or other digital output, on/off by using a web browser.

Notice that DHCP is turned on by default. The IP address assigned to the WebSwitch server along with an instruction how to use it is printed to the connected PC's serial terminal window during program start up.
To use static IP address uncomment and adjust line #221 in main.cpp.

The project was inspired by the Tuxgraphics Web Switch. Thank you Guido!
