[lwip-users] mDNS

[Louis Demers]

Hi,

I'm new to lwip(coming from uip) and total newbie about mDNS so bare with me.

        I'm trying to get mDNS to work on our microbes eval board (Zynq). I've 
successfully replaced lip 1.4.1 from xilinx with the latest lwip 2.0.3. Got 
basic things working (telnet and http). But can't get my head around mDNS.  I 
followed the instructions and got the following results

1) if i call the 

netif_set_up(&netif);
// Delay needed
mdns_resp_init() ;
mdns_resp_add_netif(&netif, "zynq", 60); 
mdns_resp_add_service(&netif, "Web", "_http", DNSSD_PROTO_TCP, 80, 60, srv_txt, 
NULL);

it practically never works. If i insert a delay after netif_set_up(&netif), 
then it works...

2) During development, i choose a short TTL (60 sec). My bug/problem is that 
after TTL seconds, the service is no longer visible. I thought i needed to 
re-add the service but that didn't work either....
Sniffing with wireshark, I only see the 3 packets coming out of the board,

1 after mdns_resp_add_netif()
2 after mdns_resp_add_service()


Thanks for any clue...
