In my project, I have to enable something like in these three scenarios:

1/ dhcp only (netif never up if no dhcp is available)
2/ autoip only
3/ dhcp with fallback on autoip if no dhcp response before a defined timeout.

But in my case, because it's just to avoid to never up, 2/ & 3/ implementations 
are very "simples" : the thread which exec the dhcp_start() just poll the 
netif's ip address until it changes, or until a timeout, and in this last case, 
just do a dhcp_stop() and direct set to the netif a static AUTOIP address (I 
don't even check if the autoip is already used, even if it's not a big job...). 
Of course, all that is done in my port level (where I add my interfaces, etc...)

Do you intend to share your autoip feature, or is it just for you? If you want 
to share it, I suggest you to add autoip.h/.c files, and not just patch dhcp, 
because like this, people which only want a autoip device without dhcp (or the 
inverse) could got a smaller footprint...

To check if the Autoip is already used, look how DHCP_DOES_ARP_CHECK is 
implemented (each ARP reply on a interface is handle by dhcp_arp_reply(), which 
"decline" the IP is the interface is always in DHCP_CHECKING state).

If you want some help, tell me, I would like to improve my current 
"implementation"...

Hi!

Additional to DHCP I need a APIPA configuration if no DHCP is there for my 
application.

So did one ever try to or succesfull implement such feature in lwIP ?

My idea is to integrate this in the dhcp module, because interaction is very 
close..

What do you think?

Regards,

Dominik
