LS1028ARDB ping from uboot fail

[franciscojavie9]

Hello,

I am trying to simply ping the board itself, but it does not work. I have tried cable to the five switches that the board has and it does not work. However, if I load the linux kernel, the ping works. So I am thinking about the uboot configuration. Could you help me?

I enclose the uboot load and pri logs:

> I am trying to simply ping the board itself

What exactly you have done?

[franciscojavie9]

Just ping to address 10.0.0.2 (local address from target).

And it says:

=> ping 10.0.0.2
Using enetc#0 device

ARP Retry count exceeded; starting again
ping failed; host 10.0.0.2 is not alive

I have tried to connect the cable in other ethernet switches and also tried in other eth devices. I attach mdio list:

=> mdio list
enetc#0:
enetc#1:
enetc#2:
netc_mdio:
sw:

[ufedor]

Why ping 10.0.0.2 is attempted?

10.0.0.2 is IP address of the RDB board itself.

Your serverip is specified as 10.0.0.1.

[franciscojavie9]

Your are right, but i thoght that local ping worked in Uboot.I have also tried to ping the serverip(which is my goal), but same result.

The curiosity is that with eth1 it doesnt link up. For the others: eth0 and eth2 (and trying cable with all ethernet swithches) it just says that host is not alive

=> ping 10.0.0.1
enetc[1]: ERROR: failed to reset
RGMII didn't link up, giving up.
Using enetc#1 device

[ufedor]

When U-Boot is running the only available Ethernet is enetc#0 (SGMII) because RGMII is not exposed externally on the LS1028ARDB and U-Boot does not initialize the switch.

Please confirm that 10.0.0.1 could be pinged by any other device connected instead of the RDB board.

[franciscojavie9 · Accepted solution]

Hi,

I solved the problem. Apparently my Windows 10 firewall was blocking ping responses. I added a new rule to enable responses to "ping" conections.

I used command console as administrator user and wrote the following:

netsh advfirewall firewall add rule name="IPv4" protocol=icmpv4:8,any dir=in action=allow

With this rule now it works ping from LS1028ARDB.

Thanks for your help.

Kind Regards.
