You need Tornado if you want to use the vxworks OS and change the route tables or do any vxWorks or NetApp commands. The eval board comes with a VxWorks/netapp image that has the shell enabled for Tornado conectivity only.

Hi,
I have questions about the Tornado software. I am trying to
run an example
workbench project on the SA1200 hardware, the Ethernet Evaluation Platform. I am under the impression that I will need to boot the VxWorks before I can run my codes on the hardware. Therefore, the Tornado software is a must. Please clarify this.
No, the Tornado software is not mandatory. We do not use it for our development.
To configure my system to run the uCos operating system, I will need to install the ARM software development toolkit to my host PC. Do I really need this? Is only the VxWorks operating system sufficient enough to be used to run codes on the hardware?
After joining the list, you can look in the e-mail archive for the list (instructions will arrive when you subscribe to the list). I posted instructions on how to take the current GNU tools and use the VxWorks bootloader (but not the Tornado software) to load and run the code.
I am not yet a member of this mailing list. My friend at Intel told me about it. Please let me know what I have to do to become a member.
