lwIP is a small independent implementation of the TCP/IP protocol
|
||
|
|
suite that has been developed by Adam Dunkels at the Computer and
|
||
|
|
Networks Architectures (CNA) lab at the Swedish Institute of Computer
|
||
|
|
Science (SICS).
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The focus of the lwIP TCP/IP implementation is to reduce the RAM usage
|
||
|
|
while still having a full scale TCP. This making lwIP suitable for use
|
||
|
|
in embedded systems with tenths of kilobytes of free RAM and room for
|
||
|
|
around 40 kilobytes of code ROM.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
lwIP features:
|
||
|
|
* IP (Internet Protocol) including packet forwarding over multiple
|
||
|
|
network interfaces
|
||
|
|
* ICMP (Internet Control Message Protocol) for network maintenance
|
||
|
|
and debugging
|
||
|
|
* UDP (User Datagram Protocol) including experimental UDP-lite
|
||
|
|
extensions
|
||
|
|
* TCP (Transmission Control Protocol) with congestion control, RTT
|
||
|
|
estimation and fast recovery/fast retransmit
|
||
|
|
* Specialized API for enhanced performance
|
||
|
|
* Optional Berkeley socket API
