RTOS/TM4C1294NCPDT: RTOS

My apologies!! I went on vacation and realized I had not assigned this to an engineer.

Since you have ethcmdxmit in an infinite loop, I except it will be running most of the time. Are the higher priorities tasks running? What exactly do you mean by "application stuck with this task"

Other tasks are not getting run. Following is another task which need to receive external ip data and print "socket creation finished" when the socket is created. But this never runs. Actually I trying to modify the Udpecho example. When I comment ethcmdxmit task echoFxn is getting run.
