RE: [ECOS] Redboot with static IP

[Fabrice Gautier]

Hi

I've finaly made this patch for redboot IP configuration.
It adds configurations options for local and server ip adresses.
I think that if there is a configuration stored in flash its override the
default adresses set with this new options, but I didn't test it on any
platform with flash.

There is also a few correction for some "displays" in the redboot cdl

Thanks

Thanks for this feedback.  I plan to integrate your changes into the 
RedBoot sources soon (and give you credit as appropriate).

The short answer is "yes".  However, it might not work so easily for
you.  The support static network setups, including the IP address, you
need to include flash support in RedBoot.  I doubt that this will be
immediately available for you on the PC.

However, you might be able to look into the code in RedBoot that handles
this and see how to make it work without the flash stuff present.

[ECOS] Redboot with static IP

[Fabrice Gautier]

Hi,

Is it possible to assign a static IP when using redboot ? 

The ethernet driver worked well with full DHCP but it doesn't work with the
redboot bootp.

Thanks
