dhcpd DHCP Server

This examples builds a tiny DHCP server for the target system.

Note: For test purposes, this example can be built as a host-based DHCPD server. This can be built as follows:

cd examples/dhcpd
make -f Makefile.host TOPDIR=<nuttx-directory>

NuttX configuration settings:

• CONFIG_NET=y – of course.

• CONFIG_NET_UDP=y – UDP support is required for DHCP (as well as various other UDP-related configuration settings).

• CONFIG_NET_BROADCAST=y – UDP broadcast support is needed.

• CONFIG_NETUTILS_NETLIB=y – The networking library is needed.

• CONFIG_EXAMPLES_DHCPD_NOMAC – (May be defined to use software assigned MAC)

See also CONFIG_NETUTILS_DHCPD_* settings described elsewhere and used in netutils/dhcpd/dhcpd.c. These settings are required to described the behavior of the daemon.
