Hi,
I am using fnet stack verion 2.9.0 in a device with K60 CPU. It communicates with the external application via TCP/IP.

I would like to know if there any difference in the routine when,
1. the device is directly connected to application
2. there is a Switching Hub between the device and the application

If yes, is it possible to know which additional functions are called when the switching hub is present?

Thanks in advance,
Santosh.

Current version is v4.6.3 !!!
If to use DHCP& AutoIP, the IP address assignment is done automatically.

Thanks for the reply.
The device is quite old and hence the fnet version.
It means, there will be additional function to automatically assign IP address if there is a hub. Am I correct?

Hi, in new version, if no DHCPv4 server is available, the AutoIP service will assign the IPv4 address automatically.
