DHCP lease configuration

Postby TexasUK » Wed Jun 05, 2019 10:59 am

Hi, first post here and I couldn't find anything using a quick search on the subject relating to this question.

My problem is with the 2 hour lease currently configured in your DHCP code.
Is there a way of extending the lease time to 5 hours, and if there is, how please?

Appreciate any help,

Do you mean in AP mode or in STA mode?

Sorry should have said, AP mode.

Basically software running on the device doesn't like the drop at 2 hours.

I think calling tcpip_adapter_dhcps_option with opt_id IP_ADDRESS_LEASE_TIME and opt_val (a pointer to an integer containing) the lease time in minutes should do the trick.

Sorry for the delay, but thank you for the information and I shall pass on to the developer and see what they come back with.
