RE: RE : [lwip-users] DHCP Modifications

[Joolz [RSD]]

So is mine, I have 7 builds which hopefully will have LWIP included??

Each build is its own product needed a build so in my build system there is a 
-DBOX_NAME which is then passed to the DHCP server so I get the correct name.

Bu change it whatever way you all think is best, I will work around this.

Greetings,

I would like to propose that the hostname not be a compile-time constant. I am 
developing a system that will be distributed in a product. Every instance of my 
product will have a different hostname. It would be inconvenient to have to 
recompile my application for each item shipped.

Perhaps if the new field in the netif structure was NULL it could indicate no 
hostname. A valid string could indicate the hostname to use.

Regards,
Roger W. Cover

I test it, and it's work. Just I donc think that using a hardcoded 
string/length is good (DHCP register the name, and DNS is update by DHCP). 
Perhaps it will be better to extend dhcp or netif struct with one field 
(hostname) if a LWIP_DHCP_HOSTNAME is defined (it will be set to 1 to say this 
field is enable).

I propose netif, because I think that snmp_set_sysname can/have to use it. 
Perhaps LWIP_HOSTNAME will be a better name?

This adds in a system of allowing the user to set the HOSTNAME for DHCP

Add into you options
#define LWIP_DHCP_HOSTNAME          "IP500"
#define LWIP_DHCP_HOSTNAME_LENGTH   5

If you do not need this then set LWIP_DHCP_HOSTNAME_LENGTH to 0 or just leave 
it out.
