U-boot: set ipaddr according to board ID

Question

Hi,

I am developing code that will run on several similar boards that will be connected to the same network.

I would like to set a different IP for each board based on a HW read (GPIOs).

What is the best way to do it in U-boot code?

I try adding this to board_late_init():

setenv("ipaddr", new_ip);

But the TFTP is still using the default ipaddr.

(When I check in cmd "printenv ipaddr" - I get the new IP)

Any suggestions?

Thanks,

Shay

The solution is to set: net_ip = string_to_ip(ipaddr);
