It's unclear exactly what you mean here.
* Are you looking for a way to force the IP that a particular
interface uses (within an eCos application)?
This is done using the CDL, selecting a fixed IP instead
of using DHCP or BOOTP.
* Perhaps you want for force the association between some external
device's address (ESA) and a particular IP address.
This is normally discovered via ARP (Address Resolution Protocol).
It is possible to push such a relationship directly into the
stack, but it's messy and I'm not sure why you would ever want
to do so.
