that is usefull for manual operation. You just go to any client machine and ping 10.0.0.255 and you hava a list of everything. I surely will use it in the future :)

Every program I've looked at and responses to questions asked about it implement autoconfiguration with UDP broadcasts. I've done the same with lwIP and it works great. Why use ICMP? BillI needed ICMP to be able to respond to broadcast pings for autoconfiguration. I added flags: LWIP_BROADCAST_PING and LWIP_MULTICAST_PING that can be defined in lwipopts.h if you want broadcast pings. The only patched file is ipv4/icmp.c
