Known bugs & issues

  • The mbed LPC2368 is supported but lacks testings

Hello,

Is there any plan to add IPv6 support to the stack ?

Hi everybody

If you are compiling the code yourself and want to get rid of the highly annoying warnings, you can use pragma directives in the relevant source files:

// http://infocenter.arm.com/help/index.jsp?topic=/com.arm.doc.dui0495a/BABDJCCI.html
#pragma diag_remark 1293 // assignment in condition
#pragma diag_remark 1464 // taking the address of a temporary
#pragma diag_remark 177 // <entity> was declared but never referenced

What TCPSocket throughput have you achieved?

I can reach 3000 bytes/s maximum.

Hi Donatien,

Any clean way to set the link state to the states available in Ethernet.set_link() ? ( here http://mbed.org/projects/libraries/api/mbed/trunk/Ethernet#Ethernet.set_link )

Hi Donatien,

I found a bug in EthernetNetIf.cpp for static IP. EthernetNetIf constructor for static IP set DNS server address by dns_setserver(). But dns_setserver() is should be called after lwip_init() call. So, this dns_setserver() call fails.
