TCP Server, TCP Client, and UDP in SP2302 with W5500

Overview

W5500 Ethernet chip (via WIZ850io) enables SPI-based Ethernet communication on the SP2302, creating a second Ethernet interface (eth1). This interface can fully support TCP server, TCP client, and UDP socket communication, allowing you to develop embedded applications like device controllers, IoT gateways, or data relays.

Setup Prerequisites

• WIZ850io properly wired via SPI to SP2302
• Dual-port firmware flashed to SP2302 with support for eth1

Network check:

bash


複製編輯
ip addr show eth1

• Network check: ip addr show eth1

Assign a static IP or use DHCP: Example netplan:

yaml network:  version: 2  ethernets:    eth1:      dhcp4: yes

• Assign a static IP or use DHCP: Example netplan:yaml複製編輯network: version: 2 ethernets: eth1: dhcp4: yes

Apply:

bash

sudo netplan apply

Testing TCP & UDP on W5500 (eth1)

All examples below use eth1 (W5500) for communication. Replace IPs with your actual eth1 IP when needed.

1. TCP Server on W5500

Python TCP Server Code

python

# tcp_server_w5500.py
import socket

HOST = '192.168.2.50'  # eth1 IP
PORT = 5000

with socket.socket(socket.AF_INET, socket.SOCK_STREAM) as s:    s.bind((HOST, PORT))    s.listen()    print(f"[+] Listening on {HOST}:{PORT}")    conn, addr = s.accept()    with conn:        print(f"[✓] Connected by {addr}")        while True:            data = conn.recv(1024)            if not data:                break            print(f"[<] Received: {data.decode()}")            conn.sendall(b"ACK: " + data)

Run:

bash


python3 tcp_server_w5500.py

2. TCP Client on W5500

Python TCP Client Code

python # tcp_client_w5500.py
import socket

SERVER_IP = '192.168.2.100'  # Remote server IP
PORT = 5000
LOCAL_IP = '192.168.2.50'    # eth1 IP

with socket.socket(socket.AF_INET, socket.SOCK_STREAM) as s:    s.bind((LOCAL_IP, 0))  # Bind to eth1    s.connect((SERVER_IP, PORT))    s.sendall(b"Hello from W5500 client!")    data = s.recv(1024)    print(f"[<] Received: {data.decode()}")

3. UDP Communication on W5500

Python UDP Echo Server

python # udp_server_w5500.py
import socket

HOST = '192.168.2.50'  # eth1 IP
PORT = 6000

with socket.socket(socket.AF_INET, socket.SOCK_DGRAM) as s:    s.bind((HOST, PORT))    print(f"[+] UDP Server listening on {HOST}:{PORT}")    while True:        data, addr = s.recvfrom(1024)        print(f"[<] Received from {addr}: {data.decode()}")        s.sendto(b"ACK: " + data, addr)

Python UDP Client

python # udp_client_w5500.py
import socket

SERVER_IP = '192.168.2.100'
PORT = 6000
LOCAL_IP = '192.168.2.50'

with socket.socket(socket.AF_INET, socket.SOCK_DGRAM) as s:    s.bind((LOCAL_IP, 0))  # Bind to W5500    s.sendto(b"Hello UDP", (SERVER_IP, PORT))    data, addr = s.recvfrom(1024)    print(f"[<] Reply: {data.decode()}")

Testing Tools

• Hercules on a PC to test server/client interactions.

Results:

TCP Server

TCP Client

UDP

Debugging Tips

• Use dmesg | grep eth1 to confirm driver is loaded
• Confirm route to target IP using ip route
• Monitor traffic with tcpdump -i eth1
