You can also use some "standard" protocols like netbios (there is a small
implementation in contrib, which enable you to use a name from a windows pc)
or the apple "bonjour" protocol (based on several technics like dns,
multicast, etc...).

Subject: Re: [lwip-users] Finding assigned IP address of device
A simple but good way is to have the device do a UDP broadcast of whatever
you want know. It does mean that the PC would need software running on it
to
receive the bcast and do what you want done.

Hello,
This may be straying off topic. What methods can be used for a node
connected to my lwIP-based device to be able to find out the IP address
assigned by DHCP or AUTOIP? I don't have a display on the device to
know
what the IP address is. How can I let the PC wanting to connect to me
know
the assigned IP address?
Thanks much!
Bill
