Lwip Ppp Over Serial
Hi, I managed to let my ST Nucleo with mbed OS connect to Internet using an Adafruit Fona (a serial 2G modem). I used the PPP layer included in the sal-stack-lwip module, using this library as reference: https://github.c&hellip.
I have used lwIP's PPP but am not sure what you mean by 'PPP driver from lwIP'. Do you need to use PPP-over-serial or PPP-over-Ethernet? I used PPPoS for which I had to: 1.
Implement the serial IO interface defined in sio.h (see reference implementations in contrib module) 2. Use the PPP APIs defined in ppp.h to establish, manage, and terminate a PPP link.
Take into consideration that: 1. As of lwIP 1.4.0 rc1, the APIs in ppp.h are not protected, i.e they should be called from the tcpip thread context. IMO, not all the APIs in ppp.h are actually public. On 5/5/2011 13:18, narke wrote: > Hi, > > Does anyone have experience in using the PPP driver from lwIP?

If your embedded system is not covered in the contrib module, you will have to implement the serial IO interfaces (sio_open, sio_close, sio_write, sio_read, etc.). >> Do you need to use PPP-over-serial or PPP-over-Ethernet? >> >> >> I used PPPoS for which I had to: >> >> 1.

I think I see what you meant by 'lwIP PPP driver' - the location of the ppp directory is somewhat confusing. As opposed to the other files under the netif directory, the files under netif/ppp are not a sample or a skeleton. They _are_ the PPP client and API implementation (based on pppd code). This means they all have to be compiled into lwIP for you to be able to use PPP and its APIs (unless of course you decide to implement/import your own PPP engine - which I recommend against.). >> >> Take into consideration that: >> >> 1.

> I think this only matters for NO_SYS == false case. I believe so, although I cannot be absolutely certain. IMO, not all the APIs in ppp.h are actually public. > What does this mean? I mean that I am not sure that all the functions defined in ppp.h should actually be called by someone looking to use PPP. I only use pppInit, pppOverSerialOpen, pppHup, pppClose and possibly a couple of others. > > > Hi Narke, > > See my inlined replies.
