Hi,  
I’m woking with **STM32L486RG MCU** using **IAR v7.4 IDE.**  
In my poject , I’m required to implement an **FTP server** on my \*\*SD card \*\*using the **FreeRTOS+ library.**  
For the internet connection , I’m using the **WINC1500** module of **ATMEL.**

When I started the integration of the FreeRTOS +, I found that there are files called “ **FreeRTOS\_sockets.c** ” and **"FreeRTOS\_sockets.h**" and I start to be a little bit confused whether these files use my\*\* WINC1500 socket\*\* or they use and create another socket type.

Currently in my project, I have an **MQTT client** implemented and it uses the **WINC1500 socket**. **So, if I want to implement the FTP server , should I use the some socket of my WINC1500 module or let the FreeRTOS\_sockets files use their own ?**

Sorry , but I’m in urgent need for help because I’m getting lost and I don’t really find enough information about this issue on the net.

Thanks in advance !

Hi again,

maybe the good question is : how to tie my winc1500 module and the freertos socket ?

kind and best regards,  
Dhibi

I’m afraid I don’t know anything about the WINC1500, but a quick look at  
information on the Internet leads me to the conclusion that the device  
has the TCP/IP stack on board, and provides access through a serial  
interface - so I’m not sure it is intended for use with a source code  
TCP/IP stack.
