[lwip-users] Question about LWIP and ESP8266 as UART-WiFi Bridge

[Flavio Castro Alves Filho]

Hello,

I am currently working on a project where I use STM32F4
microcontroller and a ESP8266 as a WiFi module. My firmware project
uses STM23CubeMX, which comes with LWIP 2.0.3 when I setup the
project.

I'm using ESP8266 AT commands, with its standard firmware, just to
perform WiFi communication. I am using UART to communicate both
devices (maybe the only possible choice :-)).

For now, I am using UART passthrough mode, from ESP8266 point of view,
in order to communicate with the server.

I would like to profit from LWIP infrastruture in order to implement
socket api and other protocols and features in my WiFi communication.
And I would like to know if I can integrate LWIP in this setup,
considering that the TCP/IP stack is already being used by the WiFi
module.

If it is possible, how should I proceed?

Best regards,

Flavio
