The question is how minimal you want to go. uip and lwip have very different memory requirements, but both could work. See
https://github.com/adamdunkels/uip/b...uip-refman.pdf
for uip. You had to link the stack into the application, which means if the application ends, the system would not respond to a ping any more, much like NCSA telnet on DOS back then. uip needs an interrupt and a timer to handle timeouts.
