Connecting over Different Subnets

Teledyne LeCroy

1.12

Connecting over Different Subnets

If the host machine (with the Sierra software) and Sierra M6‐2 are on the same subnet,
they will see each other’s broadcasts, and the Sierra M6‐2 application will automatically
appear in the Select Device dialog, from which you can select a device (as described in the
previous section).

If the host machine and Sierra M6‐2 do not reside on the same subnet, they will not see
each other automatically. You must add the Sierra M6‐2 IP address manually. To add the IP
address, use the Add Device button (see

Figure 1.14 on page 27

).

1.13

TCP and UDP Ports Must Be Open to Connect over Ethernet

WARNING:

Check your firewall settings before making Ethernet connections. Incorrect

firewall settings can prevent Teledyne LeCroy applications from detecting
analyzers on the network, though Ping works correctly. Consult your Firewall
documentation to allow Teledyne LeCroy applications access to the network.

The following TCP and UDP ports must be open to connect over the Ethernet:

TCP Port: 4000 to 4003

UDP Ports: 4015 to 4017

1.14

Launching Your Analyzer

To launch the software, double‐click the SAS or SATA Icon in the Program Manager
Window.

1.15

Operating in Simulation Mode

The SAS/SATA applications operate in Simulation Mode by default if the software detects
no hardware.

The Analyzer software launches and displays the appropriate tool bar, but with the
limitation that the Analyzer operates only on static, previously captured, bus data.

Limitations

Simulation Mode lets you try all of the available functions, but the system

is not capturing any real data and is displaying only 
pre‐captured results.

1.16

Using the Software

The Sierra M6‐2 application has the Teledyne LeCroy SAS/SATA Protocol Suite.

The Teledyne LeCroy SAS/SATA Protocol Suite can be a:

Protocol Analyzer: Captures data, triggers on events, and saves. Easy Mode
allows standard Trigger and Data capture. Advanced Mode allows you to pro‐
gram custom triggering in and out, capturing, state jumps, and timers (see

“Pro‐

tocol Analysis” on page 47

).
