My app is registering itself as an access point and when a station connects, it is asking for the station list and then using tcpip_adapter_get_sta_list() to augment the data with the IP address of the connected stations. I seem to see that at that time, the IP address of the connected station is "0". Here is my code fragment:

Code: Select all

		struct station_info *stations;
		ESP_ERROR_CHECK(esp_wifi_get_station_list(&stations));
		struct station_list *infoList;
	
		ESP_ERROR_CHECK(tcpip_adapter_get_sta_list(stations, &infoList));
		struct station_list *head = infoList;		
		while(infoList != NULL) {
			printf("mac: %.2x:%.2x:%.2x:%.2x:%.2x:%.2x " IPSTR " %d\n",
					infoList->mac[0],infoList->mac[1],infoList->mac[2],
					infoList->mac[3],infoList->mac[4],infoList->mac[5],
					IP2STR(&(infoList->ip)),
					(uint32_t)(infoList->ip.addr));
			infoList = STAILQ_NEXT(infoList, next);
		}
		ESP_ERROR_CHECK(esp_adapter_free_sta_list(head));
		ESP_ERROR_CHECK(esp_wifi_free_station_list());

Is this expected behavior? I can see that being correct ... that when we get an event that a station has connected, it doesn't yet have an allocated IP address.

This looks correct because when the station has just connected, it is possible that DHCP server has not yet assigned it an IP address.

Hi,

Sorry for the noobie question, but I am trying to do the same here.

However esp_wifi.h within the github code doesnt have

esp_wifi_get_station_list

Its only mentioned within the esp32-idf pages.

Seems two different files, is this code not added to the release in github or ?

Thanks

The post you replied to already is pretty old (that is, when keeping in mind esp-idf is pretty young), and I think the API has changed. If you look in the API docs, you'll find that esp_wifi_ap_get_sta_list probably does what you want.

Thanks, sorted that now
