Hi folks,
I wrote a driver for the DM9000 Ethernet chip, and nowadays it is
missing the link state part. I feel reluctant to add it because I don't
really see a need for the stack/application to know the link state,
since all the devices I can imagine I'll be developing will be
permanently attached to the network, and not mobile devices like a laptop.
My question to the lwIP users: does anyone have the need to know the
link state ? Can you share why ?
Thank you, regards
