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

Thank you.

Hello Kelly,
Once I connected my 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, the issue is resolved and now I can see the board acquiring an IP and the IP address is displayed in the LCD panel.
Now, I have two more questions.
1) Let's say if I program a new SOF into the board, and assign a new IP address through Eclipse, will the IP be overwritten with new IP?
2) You mentioned the following on board update portal source codes
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
I would like to know why the C files are not provided?. Why is only the partial project source code is provided and not the software part (C files)? Please advice.
Thanks,
MK
