Honored ContributorHi,
i want to implement web server application on the FPGA but i don't really know how to proceed.i'd like to ask which protocol i should use(http, ftp, tftp..) and even how to use it if i will read real time data (images from the SDRAM). is there someone who tried it and can help me? thanks in advance.. mira.
Honored ContributorMost dev boards with connectivity features have at least a reference design and sample code for WebServer functionality. As a starting point, go to dev kits page on Altera website and browse the related documentation.
Honored ContributorHi Cris,
thank you for replying. well, i'm using stratix II RoHs but i didn't find the reference design in the dev kits page!! can you give me a link ? thanxHonored ContributorWeb server design and code for different FPGA models can be easily ported to yours, provided your devices have the required features.
See for example here: http://www.altera.com/support/examples/nios2/exm-micro_tutorial.html I also know that DE2-155 (Cyclone IV) from Terasic comes with a web server demo. Same for MercuryCode board from EBV.Honored Contributorok i find all web server features provided by altera (ftp,http,telnet,...) .if i want to run ftp what shall i do?
Honored ContributorHi mira- there is a web server IP core available for free download at www.webphyfpga.com. It implements HTTP/TCP/IP/MAC and even PHY layers completely within the core - no CPU, DDR, flash memory, OS or external PHY chips are required. Just download the core, drop it into your FPGA and wire the FPGA's LVDS IO directly to a mag-jack and your FPGA is web-enabled. The web page can be completely customized as well and is stored in block RAM in the FPGA.
