Simple Socket Server and DE2_NET

Hi all,

I'm trying to understand how to work with ethernet... I've found 2 possible startin point, but i've problems with both of them

Q1)

someone can tell me where i can find a list of the component of SOPC builder for SSS template?

Or if there's a tutorial for my board altera DE2(cyclone II 2C35)

Q2) i've tried to run DE2_NET demo, but it's too old, and even if i've upgraded

to newest hardware, i still have errors in SOPC(you can see them in "errors.jpg")

Someone can help?

    Hi Phil82,

    for the Simple Socket Server Sample you don't need that much.

    CPU, RAM, Timer, FLASH, a UART (i.e. the JTAG UART) and a MAC. The only thing you have to eventually edit are the names of the module names in the SSS Code. If your flash component in SOPC Builder is not named "ext_flash" you have to change it in sopc builder to this name, or in the source code to your name in sopc builder.

    I don't know the specification of your DE2 Board, but is it right that you have two CPUs?

    The error looks like that there is a conflict with the addresses. Have you tried to "Auto-Assign Base Addresses"?
