Utility

This is a library for Ethernet initialization. Initialization is necessary for both client and server. Connect with the Arduino shield and ioShield equipped with WIZnet's WIZ550io and control by SPI. Specify #include <SPI.h> and #include <Ethernet.h> for use.

begin

Description

Initializes the Ethernet library and network settings. The DHCP automatically obtains an IP address, DNS, default gateway, and subnet mask.

Syntax

int Ethernet.begin()
Ethernet.begin(mac)
Ethernet.begin(mac, ip)
Ethernet.begin(mac, ip, dns)
Ethernet.begin(mac, ip, dns, gateway)
Ethernet.begin(mac, ip, dns, gateway, subnet)

Parameters

mac: MAC address (array of 6 bytes)
ip: IP address (array of 4 bytes)
dns: Name server address (array of 4 bytes)
gateway: Default gateway address (array of 4 bytes)
subnet: Subnet mask (array of 4 bytes)

Returns

If Ethernet.begin(mac) is successful = 1; if failure = 0. Others are None.

localIP

Description

Obtains the IP address of the board.

Syntax

IPAddress Ethernet.localIP()

Parameters

None

Returns

The IP address

maintain

Description

Allows for the renewal of DHCP leases.

Syntax

Ethernet.maintain()

Parameters

None

Returns

0: Nothing happened
1: Renew failed
2: Renew success
3: Rebind fail
4: Rebind success

Connect with DHCP, and then display the IP address.
