Crackling crust, pillowy middle. The kind of bagel that earns a second cup of coffee.
Summary
wolfIP is a lightweight TCP/IP stack designed for resource-constrained embedded systems that operates without dynamic memory allocations. It supports both endpoint-only mode and full multi-interface configurations with optional IP forwarding. The stack implements core networking protocols including Ethernet II, ARP, and IPv4, following relevant RFC standards for embedded applications.
