My project will allow the user to change the various IP settings (Address/Mask/gateway/DHCP) while the system is running. I.E. address and mask are updated (old addresses are deleted). Gateway changes cause the default route to be updated. DHCP can be turned off/on. I've found some older posts about this and tried them. Maybe I missed something but so far I've not found a single solution that covers all my needs. Is there such a solution or is there a 'right way' to achieve this? Also saw a post about using an incoming packet to learn the IP when the device is ping'ed for instance. This could be quite useful as well. Anyone have this in code already or can at least point me in the right direction of what to do? After these I'll need to do the same for NTP and DNS.
