PROCESSOR-SDK-DRA7X: eth0 and eth1 has no IP address

Jinteng Tang

Part Number: PROCESSOR-SDK-DRA7X

hello,

I use XC5777X CPU BOARD to test ethernet.

The board has 2 ETH ports. I connect the 2 ports with ethernet cable.

why can't I get IP address of eth0 and eth1?

Thanks

Hi,

If you connect the board to a router or a PC that can provide IP address (DHCP), then they should automatically get the IP address.

Hello Karthik:

Thanks for your reply

I connect a PC to the EVM eth1

the evm always prints "udhcpc: sending discover".

does it mean the PC has no ability to provide IP address(DHCP)?

what kind of PC can provide IP address?

hello Karthik:

I changed /etc/network/interfaces to static IP.

then I connect EVM eth1 and eth0 to my PC.

eth1 works, but eth0 fails.

do you know why eth0 fails?
