[ixp1200] can't see packets on workbench

Hi, Most of my previous problems got solved after i changed the linux image i was using.This is how my setup is.Please do help! I have Intel's Evaluation box .The silicon is BO..i have connected with serial cable to a windowsNT machine which runs cygwin for compiling code and also has the workbench and SDK loaded.The box has two gigaports and one 10/100 MB ports and 8 MAC ports.I have a hub which connects the NT machine and the 10/100MB port.I was trying to run chapter5 example just to see the packets on the workbench via hardware.I connected mac port1 to a ixia pkt generator and used transmit (i am not sure whether this was the right way to do it or should i have connected ixia and mac1 to the hub). The LED on port1 is green.on the ixia i started Transmit but couldn't see the scratchpad counter increasing.what am i doing wrong? on the hyperterminal i have done ifup,changed etc/hosts,insmod ue,rs_udebug& and also insmod octmac.o mac1="00:01:...". Please help! Thanks, shweta On Fri, 22 Oct 2004 12:45:47 -0600, Ricardo Camarena Ramos wrote: On Fri, 22 Oct 2004 12:45:47 -0600, Ricardo Camarena Ramos wrote:

Hi Shweta.

I had several problems when trying to "see" the ports. I don't remember I had that problem with octmac.o but I had with pciDg.o on the Linux host. What I did was to recompile the module as follows:

cd /usr/src/linux edit Makefile and change the EXTRAVERSION=xxxx Where xxxx is the kernel version you are booting up in the Linux host. For example, if your kernel is 2.4.17-3smp put EXTRAVERSION=-3smp make mrproper make oldconfig make dep cd /mnt/cdrom/ENP-2505_Driver rpm -recompile boot_drv-2.0-1.src.rpm cd /opt/ixasdk/enp-2505/bin insmod pciDg.o After that I got a warning: tainted kernel. However the module loads OK.

By the way, if you have a BV you must have patched the installation to work correctly with the MACs (this includes the octmac.o module). I prepared a log when I did it. Please look at "Corrections specific for Brivadeli card as specified by Joel Schuetze from Intel" section on http://webdiee.cem.itesm.mx/web2/comunicaciones/proyectos/LNX 2004-09 Installation log for Brivadeli card IXP1200 V3.txt

You can find the files specified on it in: "Anexo a guia V2.doc" which is located in the same page.

Hope it helps.
