I 've gone through the document, which says: There are two software development environments designed specifically for IXA application developers. 1. The IXA SDK to develop IXA applications and to write code modules targeted for the IXDP1200 Advanced Development Platform. The IXA SDK runs on Red Hat Linux * 6.2 or Cygwin * (under Windows NT * ) and is available on the IXA SDK distribution CD 1. 2. The IXP1200 Microengine Development Environment to write microcode modules (including those for microACEs) targeted for microengines on the IXP1200. The IXP1200 Microengine Development Environment runsWindows NT-4 I want to know if i can use RHL 7.2 for IXA SDK and Windows 2000 Pro for IXP1200 Microengine Development Environmen. Is it necessary to stick with RHL 6.2 and WinNT-4? Regards, Ashish

where to get IXP evaluation board ?
by Kostas G. Anagnostakis 02 Mar '02

Hi all, Apologies if the question is inappropriate for this list. We have been trying to find a distributor willing to sell us a single evaluation board to us, through the list available on the Intel Web site, but without any success so far. Intel customer service could only point to that list, so that didn't help either. Does any of the university users on this list have any hints to give us on this ? thanks, --kostas

Hi all, The minimum requirements for IXP SDK2 are NT-4 and Linux-6.2. Is OK to use windows 2000 pro. and Linux-7.2. Regards, Ashish

Hi, Which version of SDK is it? Is it SDK 2.0 or SDK 2.01? -Ranjeeta -----Original Message----- From: Abhijeet Joglekar [mailto:abhijeet@cs.utah.edu] Sent: Friday, March 01, 2002 7:27 PM To: ixp1200(a)CS.Princeton.EDU Subject: Re: [ixp1200] (no subject) I am working with the Bridalveil card and I have installed the PCI drivers and the SDK on Linux 7.2. As for windows, I think the drivers to communicate might not work with ME and other versions, between NT and 2000, I am not sure. But if you are using just the commandline assembler on Windows, then it doesnt make difference which Windows version you install on. -abhijeet On Fri, 1 Mar 2002 Rayashish(a)aol.com wrote: > Hi all, > The minimum requirements for IXP SDK2 are NT-4 and Linux-6.2. > Is OK to use windows 2000 pro. and Linux-7.2. > Regards, > Ashish >

RE: [ixp1200] doorbell interrupt?
by Preston, Charles E 01 Mar '02

Mirko, The only PCI function available from the uEngine is the DMA function. Doorbell registers are not accessible from the uEngines. If you want to generate an interrupt to the StrongARM, you can use IREG. That's the only source of interrupts from the uEngine to the control plan.

Ashley, NCL runs only on the StrongARM. All of the classification at the microengine level would be done within microblocks.

Any pointers is appreciated.. thanks Ashley

Probably a stupid question, but what does a flashing amber led on the 10/100 ports mean? -- John
