DHCP timed out, going back to default IP address(es)

If you want to disable DHCP you have two options:

1 - Open the BSP editor for your project and disable the DHCP client for the InterNiche Stack.

2 - Edit the function "get_ip_addr" in the file "network_utilities.c" for the simple socket server example so that it doesn't set the variable "*use_dhcp" to 1 before returning.

If you want to reduce the DHCP timeout, there is a function called "dhc_set_timeout" which you can call before initializing the InterNiche stack.

What you would do is put the declaration:

extern void dhc_set_timeout(int timeout_sec);

at the top of your file. Then you simply call dhc_set_timeout with the timeout value in seconds before the call to "iniche_initialize".
