ESP32-C3 as a TCP server in multiple connections

When ESP32-C3 works as a TCP server, multiple connections should be enabled by AT+CIPMUX=1 command, because in most cases more than one client needs to be connected to the ESP32-C3 server.

Below is an example showing how a TCP server is established when ESP32-C3 works in the softAP mode. If ESP32-C3 works as a station, you can set up a server in the same way mentioned above after connecting ESP32-C3 to the router.

  8. Send 4 bytes of data to connection link 0.

    Command:

    AT+CIPSEND=0,4
    

    Response:

    OK
    
    >
    

    Input 4 bytes, for example, test, then AT will respond the following messages.

    Recv 4 bytes
    
    SEND OK
    

    Note:

    • If the number of bytes inputted are more than the length (n) set by AT+CIPSEND, the system will reply busy p..., and send the first n bytes. And after sending the first n bytes, the system will reply SEND OK.

  9. Receive 4 bytes of data from connection link 0.

    Assume that the TCP server sends 4 bytes of data (data is test), the system will prompt:

    +IPD,0,4:test
    
  10. Close TCP connection.

    Command:

    AT+CIPCLOSE=0
    

    Response:

    Command:

    AT+CWMODE=1
    

    Response:

    OK
    
  2. Connect to the router.

    Command:

    AT+CWJAP="espressif","1234567890"
    

    Response:

    WIFI CONNECTED
    WIFI GOT IP

    +CIPSTA:gateway:"192.168.3.1"
    +CIPSTA:netmask:"255.255.255.0"
    
    OK
    

    Note:

    • The query results you obtained may be different from those in the above response.

  4. Connect the PC to the same router which ESP32-C3 is connected to.

    Use a network tool on the PC to create UDP transmission. For example, the PC’s IP address is 192.168.3.102, and the port is 8080.

  5. Enable multiple connections.

    Command:

    AT+CIPMUX=1
    

    Response:

    OK
    
  6. Create a UDP transmission. The connection link is 4, the remote host’s IP address is 192.168.3.102, the remote port is 8080, the local port is 1112, and the mode is 0.

    Important

    In UDP transmission, whether the remote IP address and port are fixed or not is determined by the mode parameter of AT+CIPSTART. If the parameter is 0, a specific connection link ID will be given to ensure that the remote IP address and port are fixed and the data sender and receiver will not be replaced by other devices.

    Command:

    AT+CIPSTART=4,"UDP","192.168.3.102",8080,1112,0
    

    Response:

    4,CONNECT
    
    OK
    

    Note:

    • "192.168.3.102" and 8080 are the remote IP address and port of UDP transmission on the remote side, i.e., the UDP configuration set by PC.

    • 1112 is the local port number of ESP32-C3. You can define this port number, or else, a random port will be used.

    • 0 means that the remote IP address and port are fixed and cannot be changed. For example, when there is another PC creating a UDP entity and sending data to ESP32-C3 port 1112, ESP32-C3 will still receive the data from UDP port 1112, and if the AT command AT+CIPSEND=4,X is used, the data will still be sent to the first PC end. However, if the parameter is not set as 0, the data will be sent to the new PC.

  7. Send 7 bytes of data to connection link 4.

    Command:

    AT+CIPSEND=4,7
    

    Response:

    OK
    
    >
    

    Input 7 bytes, for example, abcdefg, then AT will respond the following messages.

    Recv 7 bytes
    
    SEND OK
    

    Note:

    • If the number of bytes inputted are more than the length (n) set by AT+CIPSEND, the system will reply busy p..., and send the first n bytes. And after sending the first n bytes, the system will reply SEND OK.

  8. Receive 4 bytes of data from connection link 4.

    Assume that the PC sends 4 bytes of data (data is test), the system will prompt:

    +IPD,4,4:test
    
  9. Close UDP connection link 4.

    Command:

    AT+CIPCLOSE=4
    

    Response:

    4,CLOSED
    
    OK

  5. Enable single connections.

    Command:

    AT+CIPMUX=0
    

    Response:

    OK
    
  6. Create a UDP transmission. The remote host’s IP address is 192.168.3.102, the remote port is 8080, the local port is 1112, and the mode is 2.

    Note:

    • "192.168.3.102" and 8080 are the remote IP address and port of UDP transmission on the remote side, i.e., the UDP configuration set by PC.

    • 1112 is the local port number of ESP32-C3. You can define this port number, or else, a random port will be used.

    • 2 means the opposite terminal of UDP transmission can be changed. The remote IP address and port will be automatically changed to those of the last UDP connection to ESP32-C3.

  7. Send 4 bytes of data.

    Command:

    AT+CIPSEND=4
