 With the deferred initialization enabled, the TCP/IP stack initialization is skipped during a normal reset event, unless: (a) there is no valid user program present, or (b) the bootloader was forced to stay active. This latter case happens when the CpuUserProgramStartHook()-function is enabled and returns BLT_FALSE. With the deferred initialization enabled, the TCP/IP stack initialization is skipped during a normal reset event, unless: (a) there is no valid user program present, or (b) the bootloader was forced to stay active.

-To be able to perform remote firmware updates without having to access the system, a third scenario was added in the demo programs for forcing the TCP/IP stack to be initialized. This is the case when the bootloader was started from the user program. The [[https://​www.feaser.com/​en/​blog/?​p=216|shared parameter module]] was integrated into both the demo bootloader and user program, to be able to pass information from the user program to the bootloader. After the user program detects a firmware update request from the TCP/IP network, it sets a shared parameter in RAM right before the bootloader is activated. Upon activation, the bootloader evaluates this shared parameter and initializes the TCP/IP stack when requested.+To be able to perform remote firmware updates without having to access the system, a third scenario ​(c) was added in the demo programs for forcing the TCP/IP stack to be initialized.
