Using LwIP 2.1.2 currently:
LwIP provides several optional callbacks and I'm trying to figure out when
they're called and what steps I should take when I get one.

Currently, I'm using netif_set_status_callback and it seems like this is
called when I receive a new IP address via DHCP. The documentation says
that it's called when an "interface is brought up/down" but this doesn't
seem to be the case: I don't get a call when I unplug my cable and my cable
handling calls netif_set_link_down() like I'd expect.

I'm also seeing an issue where if I unplug the cable, change DHCP server
settings, then replug in the board is briefly pingable at the old DHCP
address prior to the new DHCP address being set. When I detect the unplug
should I use the netif_set_addr() function to set the values back to the
starting defaults of 0.0.0.0 for DHCP?

There appears to be a NETIF_LINK_CALLBACK() and a NETIF_EXT_STATUS_CALLBACK
as well, but I can't find good documentation on when those callbacks would
be expected if I enable them.

Thank you for any clarification you can provide.
