No MAC ports show up in Linux in T1024RDB

[pratik_vadher]

Hi, I am trying to set mac address in T1024RDB. However while trying show all connections with 'ifconfig -a' no mac ports show up. Log is attached

There are no MAC addresses for the Ethernet controllers.

Did you preserve firmware image which was installed on the brand-new RDB board?

Also MAC addresses can be printed on an on-board sticker.

[pratik_vadher]

No, I don't think we have preserved firmware image pre-installed with the brand new board. Two things: how do I get the MAC addresses now and we also have a brand new board, do you have any work instructions on how to store the original image onto any PC?

[ufedor]

> how do I get the MAC addresses now

Have you searched the board PCB and the case for a sticker with original (factory) MAC addresses?

> we also have a brand new board

Execute "printenv" on this board and provide the log.

[pratik_vadher]

I'll get the MAC addresses printed on the PCB in a while since I am working remotely

On the problem board you have to create environment variables similar to:

eth1addr=00:04:9F:06:55:4E
eth2addr=00:04:9F:06:55:4F
eth3addr=00:04:9F:06:55:50
eth4addr=00:04:9F:06:55:51
eth5addr=00:04:9f:8e:7b:b4

As a temporary measure it is possible to "clone" this MAC addresses to the problem board.

Hi, I used Uboot-environment variables to set the addresses, but did not work. here's the log for printenv

As of now, I am trying to use older SDK 1.7 to extract an older version of uboot and fman code (if present) since this is somewhat older board.

[pratik_vadher]

Hi I used an older Uboot version and Fman code compiled from SDK 1.7 and the error which appeared in setting FM1@DTSEC4 in Uboot log no longer does. However still I am not getting the ethernet options. I am not able to set MAC addresses. I am attaching the uboot log for your reference.

Hi, 

I was finally able to figure out and get the ethenet working, It is T1024RDB, and I was able to get the mac address from the tags on the board. I loaded older version of uboot and fman code (107.4.2) from SDK 1.7. This got the error in FM1@DTSEC3, FM1@DTSEC4 [PRIME], FM1@TGEC1 resolved

Then I set the address 'ethaddr' cause without it no ports started. And then I was able to get ETH0 and ETH1 working.

"QorIQ Linux SDK v2.0 PPC64E5500 IMAGE.iso", are this images, the completely test ones on RDB and guaranteed to work?

[pratik_vadher]

Also I have set the variables:  FM1@DTSEC3=00:04:9F:06:55:4E
