WINC1500 IoT Software APIs: m2m_wifi_set_static_ip

Assign a static IP address to the WINC board. This function assigns a static IP address in case the AP doesn't have a DHCP server or in case the application wants to assign a predefined known IP address. The user must take in mind that assigning a static IP address might result in an IP address conflict. In case of an IP address conflict observed by the WINC board the user will get a response of M2M_WIFI_RESP_IP_CONFLICT in the wifi callback. The application is then responsible to either solve the conflict or assign another IP address.

Parameters

[in]

pstrStaticIPConf

Pointer to a structure holding the static IP Configurations (IP, Gateway, subnet mask and DNS address).

Precondition

The application must disable auto DHCP using m2m_wifi_enable_dhcp before assigning a static IP address.

Warning

Normally this function normally should not be used. DHCP configuration is requested automatically after successful Wi-Fi connection is established.
