[lwip-devel] [patch #5952] Integration of AutoIP module

[Frédéric Bernon]

Follow-up Comment #29, patch #5952 (project lwip):

Hi Dominik, I currently test Autoip.

About "(169.254.1.0 + MAKEWORD(hwaddr[4], hwaddr[5]) + tried_llipaddr)", note
that MAKEWORD parameter are (lobyte,hibyte). So, if you have devices with such
MAC Addresses:

00-13-bd-00-01-61 (dev1)
00-13-bd-00-01-62 (dev2)

At the boot time, the first try will be  :

(169.254.1.0 + 0x6101 + 0) (dev1) = 169.254.98.1
(169.254.1.0 + 0x6201 + 0) (dev2) = 169.254.99.1

So, even with lot of devices from one serie, you have to get more 256 devices
on the same LAN to start to got some conflicts...

I hope it's clearer... (I think this is the last thing to do for this task).
