ContributorQuestion on board update portal - Intel Arria 10 GX Development kit
Hi MK,
Sorry I may have made some confusion in between, but let me clarify things here.
Question 2: I'm afraid you may need a hostPC with a connection to working Ethernet port on a DHCP enabled network and a separate ethernet port connected to the same network for the board.

Frequent ContributorHi MK,
Thanks for your swift response. I will answer to your questions accordingly.
Question 1: As the Board Update Portal is stored in the factory portion of the flash memory on the board, therefore it is by default ready to be used and do not have a .c file for your reference.
Question 2: You may try it on your side to see whether it has the same IP address on both scenarios where from your LAN to hostPC by ipconfig on Command prompt, and from LAN to hostPC then to the board to verify the method mentioned is workable.
Question 3: Might be due to a corrupting issue, so if the Board Update Portal is corrupted or deleted from the flash memory, refer to “Restoring the Flash Device to the Factory Settings” to restore the board with its original factory contents with the link here: https://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/docs/programmable/683553/current/restoring-the-flash-device-to-the-factory.html
You can go ahead to try out if a router can solve your issue too.
Once again, you may refer to the user guide's link which was attached from the previous post for your references. Looking forward to your findings.
Thank you.
Regards,
Kelly
