The stack supports multiple Physical Interfaces. + 2. The stack also supports multiple endpoints (or Virtual interfaces) on the same physical interface. + + New WinSim demo to support IPv4, IPv6 and multi-interface together. + (Reference: https://github.com/FreeRTOS/FreeRTOS/tree/main/FreeRTOS-Plus/Demo/FreeRTOS_Plus_TCP_IPv6_Demo/IPv6_Multi_WinSim_demo) + + Build separation feature introduced to achieve low memory footprint.

IPv4 + IPv6 + UDP + TCP + + Support added in FreeRTOS-plus-TCP git repository CI tool to validate various build configurations before PR merge. + + Achieved 100% unit test coverage for both IPv4 and IPv6. + + MISRA c-2012 compliance for both IPv4 and IPv6. + + Addressed several issues observed by Maxwell Protocol tester. + + Memory safety proofs for IPv6 code using[ CBMC automated reasoning tool ] (https://www.cprover.org/cbmc/). + + Stack is Penetration tested and a memory leak issue has been identified and fixed in the process. + (Reference: https://github.com/FreeRTOS/FreeRTOS-Plus-TCP/pull/973) + + Improved Documentation: + 1. Multi-interface and Multi-endpoint documentation. + 2. Updated stack initialization documentation to support multi-interface and endpoint. + (Reference: https://freertos-wordpress.corp.amazon.com/FreeRTOS-Plus/FreeRTOS_Plus_TCP/TCP_Networking_Tutorial_Initialising_TCP.updated.html) + 3. Code size details for various build configurations + (Reference: https://www.freertos.org/FreeRTOS-Plus/FreeRTOS_Plus_TCP/index.html). + 4. Documentation added for IPv6 protocol support. + 5. Documentation added for various IPv6 functionalities like DHCPv6, ND (Neighbour Discovery), RA (Router Advertisement). + 6. README added for the network ports. + +We thank the following people for their inputs in these enhancements: + + Add mDNS fixes for IPv6.
