Question on board update portal - Intel Arria 10 GX Development kit
- 3 years ago
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.

-Connecting to the Board Update Portal Web page for the steps to display the IP address.
Question 3: With performing the steps below, the factory reset will not have issues according to the link here: https://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/docs/programmable/683553/current/restoring-the-flash-device-to-the-factory.html

Kindly have a look at the Board Update Portal section where you might find some additional answers.
Thank you.

Hi Kelly,
The response for Question 1 is clear. Now, moving to questions 2 & 3 to dig deeper.
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".
MK: I can do an ipconfig in host pc and check the IPV4 address of the PC. What should I check once I get this IP address? and also What do you mean by "and from LAN to hostPC then to the board to verify the method mentioned is workable". I do not quite understand this. Can you brief more please?
3. I tried factory restore. It took about 15 minutes for all sof and one pof file to be updated. But once I open the Board test system application, I got the following window. Does this mean anything?. I am not quite sure that eventhough the following warning "failed to get this device" is displayed, once I click okay and give factory restore, I saw a dialogue box which showed several sof files being uploaded. Can you give me more info on this?
Thanks
