Hi Nick,
Many devices have implemented DNS proxying, like <dnsmasq>, to provide a
local domain name for the device.

Hi,
Thanks. I will have a look at it. I bought this netgear wireless
adapter that does this and traced the packets with Wireshark. It was a
DNS query from the PC and then a reply from the device. 2 packets at
most but I need to investigate further.
Regards,
Nick

Hi Nick,
If you connect direction a PC to the embedded system, unless your PC
is DHCP server, your board won't get an IP. What i would use in your
case is AUTOIP (this is supported in lwip). Then, in order to address
your board using DNS names, again, if no DNS server is available on
your PC, i suggest you to have a look at multicast DNS ( this one is
not currently supported in lwip AFAIK, you'll have to develop it).
Both of these standards are part of Zeroconf suit, you may be
interested to have a look...
regards,
Bastien

Hi,
This is the situation: User connects PC to embedded system. And to
access it instead of typing in an IP the user types in a domains name.
I have setup my embedded device to use DHCP. I would like to when a
user types in a domain name of : www.mydevice.com
<http://www.mydevice.com> the dns query should return the devices IP.
How can I map a domain name to an IP?
Regards,
Nick
