New idea consultation

Hello evreyone

i want to ask about something for people who have an experience on Arduino

i want to make one deice to test to port of network and when i plugged in the cable of network it's give me three things

1- ipv4 adresses
2- subnetmask
3-defult getway

is this possible?

Can you do that today with a PC?

Yes, that is possible. But just about any functional laptop will work, too.

Sounds interesting and useful, I'm sure it can be done but I don't know how. I will follow this with interest.

@mybv ,
I completely understand why you choose the forum category you did, but I think Project Guidance is more appropriate, so I have moved it there.

Then there is the answer to your testing. As you develop the code, see if the results match what you see on the PC.

thanks a lot , this is my first time to use this website i didn't know

yes i know the laptop can do that , but i want something easier than laptop

Well a DHCP client can collect such data from a DHCP server on the network. Are you trying to emulate this sort of behaviour ?

If the network is using DHCP then the IPV4 address will only be valid for the arduino, for as long as the DHCP lease lasts. Or are you wanting the addresses of everything else on the network?
