Static IP Address
It has already been noted that each network node has an IP address. If the IP address is 'static' then it is pre-assigned and never changed.
In the FreeRTOS-Plus-TCP API, before calling FreeRTOS_IPInit_Multi, you need to add an IPv4 address as an endpoint using FreeRTOS_FillEndPoint or an IPv6 address using FreeRTOS_FillEndPoint_IPv6 as one of its parameters. The Endpoints/IP address will be used as a static IP address if ipconfigUSE_DHCP or ipconfigUSE_DHCPv6 is set to 0 or if ipconfigUSE_DHCP or ipconfigUSE_DHCPv6 is set to 1 but a DHCP server cannot be contacted.
