Hello,
Does ConnMan support any type of IPv4 address conflict detection? I searched
the code, but wasn't able to find anything obvious. I need this functionality
for DHCP and manual configuration methods.
IIRC, we don't have such code in place. We do it for link local
addresses but not for DHCP.
RFC5227 (
https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc5227) describes a sequence
where a
client should probe an address with ARP, and not use the address if it's
already in use on the network.
That make certainly sense.
Apparently udhcpc (
https://busybox.net/downloads/BusyBox.html)
supports this
functionality through its command line option --arping.
Good for udhcpc. Though ConnMan doesn't make use of udhcpc.
Thanks,
Daniel
