# Console command ifconfig The component offers a console with a command that enables runtime network interface configuration and monitoring for any example project. ## API ### Steps to enable console in an example code: 1. Add this component to your project using ```idf.py add-dependency``` command. 2. In the main file of the example, add the following line: ```c #include "console_ifconfig.h" ``` 3. Ensure esp-netif and NVS flash is initialized and default event loop is created in your app_main(): ```c ESP_ERROR_CHECK(esp_netif_init()); ESP_ERROR_CHECK(esp_event_loop_create_default()); esp_err_t ret = nvs_flash_init(); //Initialize NVS if (ret == ESP_ERR_NVS_NO_FREE_PAGES || ret == ESP_ERR_NVS_NEW_VERSION_FOUND) { ESP_ERROR_CHECK(nvs_flash_erase()); ret = nvs_flash_init(); } ESP_ERROR_CHECK(ret); ``` 4. In your app_main() function, add the following line as the last line: ```c ESP_ERROR_CHECK(console_cmd_init()); // Initialize console // Register all plugin command added to your project ESP_ERROR_CHECK(console_cmd_all_register()); // To register only ifconfig command skip calling console_cmd_all_register() ESP_ERROR_CHECK(console_cmd_ifconfig_register()); ESP_ERROR_CHECK(console_cmd_start()); // Start console ``` ### Adding a plugin command or component: To add a plugin command or any component from IDF component manager into your project, simply include an entry within the `idf_component.yml` file.

Note: Disabling the DHCP server and client enables the use of static IP configuration. ``` ## Usage: ### Creating an ethernet interface ``` esp> ifconfig eth init Internal(IP101): pins: 23,18, Id: 0 esp> ifconfig netif create 0 ``` ### Removing an interface and deinitializing ethernet ``` esp> ifconfig netif destroy en1 I (8351266) ethernet_init: Ethernet(IP101[23,18]) Link Down I (8351266) ethernet_init: Ethernet(IP101[23,18]) Stopped esp> ifconfig eth deinit ``` ### Set default interface ``` esp> ifconfig en1 default ``` ### Enable NAPT on an interface ``` esp> ifconfig en1 napt enable I (8467116) console_ifconfig: Setting napt enable on en1 ``` ### Enable DHCP client on an interface ``` esp> ifconfig en1 dhcp client enable ``` ### Enable static IP on an interface ``` esp> ifconfig en1 dhcp client disable ``` ### Set static IP address ``` esp> ifconfig en1 ip 192.168.5.2 I (111466) console_ifconfig: Setting ip: 192.168.5.2 esp> ifconfig en1 mask 255.255.255.0 I (130946) console_ifconfig: Setting mask: 255.255.255.0 esp> ifconfig en1 gw 192.168.5.1 I (143576) console_ifconfig: Setting gw: 192.168.5.1 I (143576) esp_netif_handlers: eth ip: 192.168.5.2, mask: 255.255.255.0, gw: 192.168.5.1 ```
