I have an ESP8266 module connected with my Arduino configured as a server, with both AP and station modes (AT+CWMODE=3) activated, and I want to know if an incoming connection comes from the AP's network or the station's network. This is the package I'm receiving, and it's exactly the same whether it comes from one or another network:
+IPD,0,437:GET /?uuid=7be547af980d13c5&cmd=10 HTTP/1.1
Host: 192.168.0.222:51813

At first I thought that it would reject packages addressed towards another IP (AP's IP is different from station's IP), but since this IS the gateway, it receives ALL incoming traffic. Please help!

This is the firmware and other stuff shown by AT+GMR

Which firmware do you have running on your ESP8266?Roberto Lo Giacco– Roberto Lo Giacco09/15/2016 16:42:25Commented Sep 15, 2016 at 16:42

Hi @RobertoLoGiacco, I edited my question to include firmware info.Christian Rodriguez– Christian Rodriguez09/15/2016 17:00:06Commented Sep 15, 2016 at 17:00

I don't think the default AT firmware allows to automatically reject packets because that would probably require a higher degree of control, but looking at the Expressif documentation about the AT command set I've discovered you can actually retrieve the remote address rather than the local one, just by using the same command you were using but with a different parameter
AT+CIPDINFO=1
Not sure though this actually might solve your problem.

This actually solves it! Thx!! It relies on both networks being on separate addresses though, so you can't have both on
192.168.0.0
, for example (if you are one to do such things, and I've seen production environments with such network configuration... a complete IP nightmare).Christian Rodriguez– Christian Rodriguez09/16/2016 13:44:21Commented Sep 16, 2016 at 13:44 -
Glad to hear my long shot turned out to be on the spot :-)Roberto Lo Giacco– Roberto Lo Giacco09/16/2016 15:06:36Commented Sep 16, 2016 at 15:06
