Detailed Description

Ethernet network interface.

This class provides Ethernet connectivity to the stack

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

EthernetNetIf ( const char *  hostname = NULL )

Instantiates the Interface and register it against the stack, DHCP will be used.

An optional hostname can be specified which will be passed to the DHCP server. Examples without and with hostname specified:

 EthernetNetIf eth();
 EthernetNetIf eth("mbedSE");

Definition at line 40 of file EthernetNetIf.cpp.

EthernetNetIf ( IpAddr  ip,
IpAddr  netmask,
IpAddr  gateway,
IpAddr  dns 
)

Instantiates the Interface and register it against the stack, DHCP will not be used.

IpAddr is a container class that can be constructed with either 4 bytes or no parameters for a null IP address.

Member Function Documentation

const char * getHostname (  ) const

Returns a pointer to the hostname set in the constructor.

Definition at line 196 of file EthernetNetIf.cpp.

const char * getHwAddr (  ) const

Returns an array containing the hardware address.

Definition at line 192 of file EthernetNetIf.cpp.

IpAddr getIp (  ) const [inherited]

Returns the IP of the interface once it's connected.

Definition at line 40 of file netif.cpp.

EthernetErr setup ( int  timeout_ms = 15000 )

Brings the interface up.

Uses DHCP if necessary

Parameters:
timeout_ms: You can set the timeout parameter in milliseconds, if not it defaults to 15s
Returns:
: ETH_OK on success or ETH_TIMEOUT on timeout
