i have been trying to get my Cobra to debug via ethernet, but I can’t seem to get it to work. The Cobra is turned on and connect (with a DHCP lease), and although it is listed in MFDeploy in the TCP/IP drop box, I cannot connect to it. I get…

What’s the point with static vs dynamic address here ?
Unless MFDeploy is checking that particular point and refuses to work with a leased address, there’s no difference between static/dynamic address ?!
I would understand that MFDeploy could not find the board with a dynamic address, but it’s not the case here.
When you use a DHCP IP address the IP does not need to be there when th cobra is restarted, First it needs to talk to the DHCP server of he still can use that IP address etc.
In the maintime MFDeploy try’s to connect to the cobra and fails.
For all of the DHCP questions, the board gets a DHCP lease after bootup, in code. Until it gets to that point, however, it does have a properly configured static address.
