Just FYI:
As I know, one "unnamed" customer is using FNET in its AUTOSAR products.

  Hi Andrey ,
  
  Thanks for the info. Just adding few more doubts about FNET is it os dependent ? (whether it runs without OS) and does its support boards only supported in the FNET page ? Thanks in advance.

FNET is bare-metal/OS independent.
All port-specific code is placed in "/port" directory.
It may be ported to any 32-bit platform.

Based on customers requests, there are many areas where FNET is used from student projects to Consumer/Industriala and Automotive .
For example, last week I got to know that it is used in one real project on nuclear station.
BTW: ARM is going to replace lwIP stack by FNET in its mbedOS:

Do you know about any other so good bare-metal stack? Please let me know;)

Hi Andrey,

Thanks for your answer. I had discussed with my professor and planned to stick with FNET :) . I had downloaded the source code and gone through the folder structure . My professor instructed me to configure the stack but I dont have any clue about where and how to start.(currently I dont have any board in my hand) . can you please tell me how to start working on from the basics ?

Thanks in Advance .

Start from the general FNET example fnet\fnet_demos\<board>\shell
You should have one of supported boards and compiler.
My most used combination is the frdm-k64f board and IAR.</board>

Hi Andrey ,

is it possible to build fnet as a standalone application ? because I couldn't see any makefiles in the FNET folder.

Out of the box there are only IDE projects. If you need a make file, you should create it by yourself.
