FreeRTOS-TCP v4.0.0. The protocol stack does not respond to ARP requests, but sends ARP notifications every 30 seconds. I know that sending ARP notifications in 30 seconds is due to the macro definition of “ipconfigMAX-ARP-AGE”, but what is the reason for not responding to ARP requests?

Maybe a problem with your ethernet driver not receiving packets ? Can your verify that the driver receives ethernet frames and forwards them to the stack correctly ?

Can you check that your driver is correctly handing over the ARP request to the FreeRTOS+TCP stack? Put breakpoints at the following locations -

  1. Starting to process the ARP request - https://github.com/FreeRTOS/FreeRTOS-Plus-TCP/blob/main/source/FreeRTOS_ARP.c#L145.
  2. Preparing ARP reply - https://github.com/FreeRTOS/FreeRTOS-Plus-TCP/blob/main/source/FreeRTOS_ARP.c#L370.
  3. Sending the ARP reply - https://github.com/FreeRTOS/FreeRTOS-Plus-TCP/blob/main/source/FreeRTOS_IP.c#L2021.

Let us know if the control reaches these locations when you receive an ARP request.
