Hi,I am using lwip as part of the espressif/arduino-esp32 library and there is something I don't understand.My question is about DNS implementation of lwip: https://github.com/espressif/arduino-esp32/blob/master/tools/sdk/include/lwip/lwip/dns.hIf I understand correctly there is a lookup table, which contains the host names, which have been queried before and their ip adress. Can I add a host to that lookup table during runtime?
Yes, see |DNS_LOCAL_HOSTLIST, ||DNS_LOCAL_HOSTLIST_ISDYNAMIC and ||dns_local_addhost().|

So what I want is this: The ESP32 wakes up and only does the DNS query (dns_gethostbyname), if the IP address of an MQTT server has changed, because an IP change of that server is not likely to happen often. So I would save the IP address over deep sleep and use it again, when the ESP wakes up. Do I need a dynamic host list for that (the DNS_LOCAL_HOSTLIST macro is undefined now)? Or can I edit the lookup table directly?
No, you can't edit the lookup table directly. However, I don't get how you detect the IP address has changed without using dns, as that's what dns is for...?
