configuration - Discovering and RECONFIGURING devices on an IPv4 network -


[warning: network programming newbie here]

we manufacture embedded devices connected customers networks know nothing about. might or might not have dhcp enabled (but usually, haven't).

what easiest way to:

  • programmatically discover (i see several solutions this) also
  • configure these devices (for example, changing ip address , netmask)

with setup software ship these devices? able "configuring" part lldp? have implement own protocol on top of it?

auto-configure going impossible if network operator doesn't provide facilities it...

if need communicate on lan ipv6 link-local addresses easiest need no autoconf facilities.

lldp unrelated need.
