hi, I was trying to run the L3FWD2F project on the Eval board which has 16 10/100 ports and 2 gig ports.But I couldnt make it work. I have tried using the ixf1002 both in external loopback mode and internal loopback mode.I was using the peth driver compiled for ixf1002 to generate icmp packets. Did I miss something while configuring?? Does the PETH driver set up mac address for ixf1002? If anybody has tried this please help me out. Thanks and Regards Ravi … [View More]

by ravi modgekar 20 Mar '02

20 Mar '02

hi, I am new to ixp1200...I am facing a problem understanding how the microengines transfer packets to the strong arm. I am working on a project using IXP1250 which has an IXF1002 connected .Now I am using L3Fwd2F reference project as my base project to write code for this board. My question is... 1)Is there any major modification to be done in the code to run a project written for a 64 bit bidirectional IXbus mode to make it run on 32 bit unidirectional IXBus mode?? 2)what exactly is the … [View More]

20 Mar '02

hi all, Has anyone used shared memory on IXP ? We tried a simple program which ran fine on ilab m/c but gave this error on ixp (after X-compilation of course with mbig-endian) Failed:: Invalid argument this was the program: #include <stdio.h> #include <sys/shm.h> #include <sys/stat.h> main() { int segment_id; char * shared_memory; int segment_size; const int shared_segment_size = 0x6400; if( (segment_id = shmget(1234,shared_segment_size,IPC_CREAT | IPC_EXCL|S_IRUSR|… [View More]

Netbind Source Code Release for IXP 1200 Network Processor based Routers
by Michael Kounavis 19 Mar '02

19 Mar '02

NetBind is a binding tool that supports the dynamic creation of component based data paths and virtual routers in network processor-based routers. Source code is available from: http://comet.columbia.edu/genesis/netbind/ NetBind balances the flexibility of network programmability against the need to process and forward packets at line speeds in routers. While the design of NetBind is generic, the current implementation of the tool is focused toward the Intel IXP1200 network processor. … [View More]
