Hi folks, The initalization script contains rt_add(.....) to add routes, however this does not include the necessary parms for MAC address. Please look at the prototype for route_add(....) ( I can't remember of the top of my head what is ) and change the script to use route_add() instead of rt_add(). route_add() includes ( I think 2 ) extra parms for the low and high portions of the destination MAC address ( MAC address for a given client ip address ) /b

Hi Petcharat,
We are trying to run pfwd8_1f_rx16_tx6 on the new board - B0. Our understanding is that the default route table here is that 1.1.1.1 goes to port 1, 2.2.2.2 to port 2 and so on. We have two end points with IP addresses 1.1.1.1(machine A) and 2.2.2.2(m/c B) connected to port 1 and 2 respectively on the board.
Here is step by step what we are doing.
1. On the board, download VxWorks Image from
ixp1200/boardsupport/bin/vb/vxworks
2. Start Tornado and get the command shell
3. Run Netapp (as specified in the manual)
4. Open developer workbench with pfwd8_1f_rx16_tx6 and start running the ref design in hardware.
5. On m/c A, do telnet 2.2.2.2
The Rx led blinks for port 1 on receiving, however, nothing gets transmitted on port 2.
I was wondering if you did the similar thing. Any help is greatly appreciated.
thanks, Taroon

Hi All,
Can anyone help me out to make some reference design work in actual hardware? Which reference design in the latest CD is known to actually work in B0 hardware without any problem? What is the semantics of routing table in that reference?
I have downloaded vxworks in the hardware and also run tornado. Now, I download mircocode through workbench and it runs ( I can see PC changing). Now, I want to send some packets and get them routed. So, please tell me which reference design should I download?
Thanks Alok
