Re: [lwip-users] Device name

Hello

You can try using the NetBIOS naming service: it is supported by default in 
Windows, MacOS X and most Linux distributions.

Check it out: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/NetBIOS#Name_service

Have a nice day

Subject: [lwip-users] Device name


Hi,

I wonder if there is a way to communicate with a device with a name, not
an IP address.
For example, my device (running lwip of course) has IP address
192.168.2.250.
If I "ping 192.168.2.250", it is ok.
I'd like to "ping lwip_device".

Nicolas
