# Basic Ethernet Example
(See the README.md file in the upper level 'examples' directory for more information about examples.)
## Overview
This example demonstrates basic usage of internal EMAC and `Ethernet driver` together with `esp_netif`. The workflow of the example is as follows:
1. Install Ethernet driver
2. Attach the driver to `esp_netif`
3. Send DHCP requests and wait for a DHCP lease
4. If get IP address successfully, then you will be able to ping the device
If you have a new simple Ethernet application to go (for example, connect to IoT cloud via Ethernet), try this as a basic template, then add your own code.
>[!TIP]
> For initialization of a wider range of Ethernet PHY chips, including SPI Ethernet modules and for advanced Ethernet configuration options, please use [Component for Ethernet Initialization](https://components.espressif.com/components/espressif/ethernet_init/).
## How to use example
### Hardware Required
To run this example, it's recommended that you have an official Espressif Ethernet capable development board - either [ESP32-Ethernet-Kit](https://docs.espressif.com/projects/esp-dev-kits/en/latest/esp32/esp32-ethernet-kit/index.html) or [ESP32-P4-Function-EV-Board](https://docs.espressif.com/projects/esp-dev-kits/en/latest/esp32p4/esp32-p4-function-ev-board/index.html). This example should also work for 3rd party ESP32 board as long as it's integrated with a IEEE 802.3 compliant Ethernet PHY chip and with the default RMII dataplane GPIO configuration.
> [!NOTE]
> `Generic 802.3 PHY` basic functionality should always work for PHY compliant with IEEE 802.3. However, some specific features might be limited. A typical example is loopback functionality, where certain PHYs may require setting a specific speed mode to operate correctly. If this is a case, use driver tailored to that specific chip.
#### Pin Assignment
This example uses the default RMII GPIO configuration as defined by `ETH_ESP32_EMAC_DEFAULT_CONFIG` for the specific ESP32 chip (ESP32, ESP32P4, etc.).
### Configure the project
```
idf.py menuconfig
```
See common configurations for Ethernet examples from [upper level](../README.md#common-configurations).
### Build, Flash, and Run
Build the project and flash it to the board, then run monitor tool to view serial output:
```
idf.py -p PORT build flash monitor
```
(Replace PORT with the name of the serial port to use.)
(To exit the serial monitor, type ``Ctrl-]``.)
See the [Getting Started Guide](https://docs.espressif.com/projects/esp-idf/en/latest/get-started/index.html) for full steps to configure and use ESP-IDF to build projects.
## Example Output
```bash
I (394) eth_example: Ethernet Started
I (3934) eth_example: Ethernet Link Up
I (3934) eth_example: Ethernet HW Addr 30:ae:a4:c6:87:5b
I (5864) esp_netif_handlers: eth ip: 192.168.2.151, mask: 255.255.255.0, gw: 192.168.2.2
I (5864) eth_example: Ethernet Got IP Address
I (5864) eth_example: ~~~~~~~~~~~
I (5864) eth_example: ETHIP:192.168.2.151
I (5874) eth_example: ETHMASK:255.255.255.0
I (5874) eth_example: ETHGW:192.168.2.2
I (5884) eth_example: ~~~~~~~~~~~
```
Now you can ping your ESP32 in the terminal by entering `ping 192.168.2.151` (it depends on the actual IP address you get).
