fnet_netif_init()

fnet_return_t fnet_netif_init	(	fnet_netif_desc_t	netif_desc,
		fnet_uint8_t *	hw_addr,
		fnet_size_t	hw_addr_size
	)

Initializes network interface and adds it to FNET stack.

Parameters

netif_desc	Network interface descriptor to be initialized (FNET_CPU_ETH0_IF,FNET_CPU_ETH1_IF).
hw_addr	Buffer containing the hardware address (for the Ethernet interface, it contains the MAC address).
hw_addr_size	Size of the hardware address in the hw_addr (for the Ethernet interface, it equals 6).

Returns

This function returns:

• FNET_OK if successful.
• FNET_ERR if failed.

fnet_init(), fnet_netif_release()

This function initializes network interface defined by netif_desc and adds it to the FNET stack.
FNET declares descriptors for Ethernet interfaces (FNET_CPU_ETH0_IF, FNET_CPU_ETH1_IF).

Note

Loop-back interface (if set FNET_CFG_LOOPBACK) is initialized automatically during stack initialization.
