heth.

PhyAddress

= LAN8742A_PHY_ADDRESS;

MACAddr[0] = 0x00;

MACAddr[1] = 0x80;

MACAddr[2] = 0xE1;

MACAddr[3] = 0x00;

MACAddr[4] = 0x00;

MACAddr[5] = 0x00;

heth.

Init

MACAddr

heth.

Init

.

ChecksumMode

= ETH_CHECKSUM_BY_HARDWARE;

heth.

Init

.

MediaInterface

= ETH_MEDIA_INTERFACE_RMII;

heth.Init.MACAddr is a pointer to the MACAddr. but when i leave this funtion the pointer is not pointing to a defined

memory space. It is later on in the program not possible to get the MacAddr info form

heth.Init.MACAddr. The pointer must point to a MACAddr that is available all the time the program is running.

Hi

Poelmans.Jos

,

Could you please give more explanation about your issue?

heth.
Init
.
MACAddr
= &MACAddr[0]; orheth.
Init
.
MACAddr
= MACAddr;point on the first address of the array.

Otherwise you can start from ready example under the STM32F7:
STM32Cube_FW_F7_V1.6.0\Projects\STM32F769I_EVAL\Applications\LwIP\LwIP_IAP

the MACAddr is in local memory of the low_level_init function.

When you leave this funtion the reserved memor for MACAddr is give free for other use.

If you then want look to the info of the mac addres with heth.Init.MACAddr the data where this pointer

is pointing is not anymore valid.

I have use the code from

STM32Cube_FW_F7_V1.6.0.
