CONFIG_ETH_NATIVE_POSIX_STARTUP_AUTOMATIC¶
Start network interface automatically
Type: bool
Help¶
If set, the native_posix ethernet driver will set up the network
interface, requiring ``zephyr.exe`` to be run with root privileges
(needed to create and configure the TAP device).
If not set (the default and recommended way), the network interface
must be set up manually using ``net-setup.sh`` (from the net-tools
project repo). The ``zephyr.exe`` program can then be run as a
non-root user.
Direct dependencies¶
ETH_NATIVE_POSIX && NET_L2_ETHERNET
(Includes any dependencies from ifs and menus.)
Defaults¶
No defaults. Implicitly defaults to n.
