[FAQ] TMS570LC4357: Step-by-Step process to execute the LwIP demo on the TMS570LC4357 HDK board using Dynamic IP (DHCP)

Part Number: TMS570LC4357

In this FAQ i am going to explain the Step-by-Step process to execute the LwIP demo on the TMS570LC4357 HDK board using Dynamic IP (DHCP).

  • Hi Everyone,

    Follow all the below steps to execute the LwIP demo on the TMS570LC4357 HDK board using Dynamic IP (DHCP).

    1. First of all download the LwIP demo from below path:

    6.1. Project 0 — Hercules Safety MCUs Documentation

    2. Once you download the demos folder then you can find the TMS570LC4357HDK LwIP demo in the below path:

    ..\Application\LwIP\v00.04.00\TMS570LC43x

    3. Import this example project into the CCS project Explorer.

    4. Now change the S2-4 switch on the TMS570LC4357HDK board to the ETHERNET ON

    5. Now connect a ethernet cable between HDK board and the DHCP Server like router.

    6. Now build the project and load it into the HDK board.

    7. Once you load the project into the HDK board, open a serial terminal application with below configurations.

    8. Now reset the board and verify the serial com data

    As you can see, PHY ID and Link status received from PHY. And IP address also got assigned from DHCP server.

    9. Now I open a browser and access the server IP address that received in serial terminal.

    As you can see that I was able to access the server page, so the demo is working as expected.

    Just make sure you are doing all these steps correctly. And i am attaching my tested project for your reference:

  • The same process will also applicable for launchpad also except that step-4 is not required.

    Here are my results from launchpad testing:

    And here is the tested project:
