Getting started with the LPCOpen Ethernet Examples (lwip_tcpecho and webserver)

[#1]

Hello community!

Attached is a document that explains how to build and run the LPCOpen Ethernet example projects, it also explains the needed board and PC connections and configurations.
The steps described in the document were done using the LPC1769 MCU like the one in the LPCXpresso board for LPC1769 with CMSIS DAP probe, but the same principles are applicable to any LPC MCU.

The steps described in this document are valid for the following versions of the software tools:
o    LPCXpresso v8.1.4
o    LPCOpen v2.xx

Boards
o    LPCXpresso board for LPC1769 with CMSIS DAP probe
o    EA LPCXpresso BaseBoard
o    LPC-Link2
