Simple socket server - NIOS question
- 3 years ago
Hi,
The icmp/ping function works on the Simple Socket Server example but ONLY on the Quartus 17.1 pro version. The Quartus version that you are using(18.1) cannot support the design example and ping function provided by Intel here: https://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/design-example/714912/arria-10-nios-ii-simple-socket-server-design-example.html
I would suggest you to use Quartus 17.1 pro version to try out the design example above.
Thank you.

Kelly
Hi Kelly,
Thanks for your response. My company has installed only the following versions of quartus.
1) Quartus 18.1 standard edition
2) Quartus 18.1 pro edition
3) Quartus 20.3 pro edition.
If I choose to move to Quartus 17.1 pro, then it will require multiple justifications, and approvals from IT. It is going to take few weeks to months before we successfully get approvals and stuff. The question will be why can't we get NIOS working with ping functionality with latest available versions.
In my scenario, we are basically trying to build a hardware system in platform designer with NIOS and TSE IP, and then use an available template from Eclipse, and get a PING functionality working. Connect a host pc to Arria 10 GX (DK-DEV-10AX115S-A) development kit, and ping the kit from the host PC. So in this case, what would you suggest me?. I am new to NIOS, and trying to adapt an existing Intel design and work on it.
Please advice the best possible solution for me.
Thanks.
