4.4.1.2
Setting a Dynamic IP Address
Set 'BOOTPROTO' to 'dhcp' in the /etc/ifcfg-eth0 file. Example:
DEVICE=eth0
BOOTPROTO=dhcp
ONBOOT=yes
4.4.1.3
Restarting Network
To take effect a restart of the network is required. To restart the network, use the following command:
# /etc/init.d/network restart
4.4.1.4
Enable / Disable Ethernet Switch Ports
To prevent routing loops, some ethernet switch ports might have to be disabled. By default all ports are
enabled. The following commands can be used under Linux or U-Boot. Use the following commands to
disable the ports:
phyWrite C 0 1940
(This command is for Port 0)
phyWrite D 0 1940
(This command is for Port 1)
phyWrite E 0 1940
(This command is for Port 8)
phyWrite F 0 1940
(This command is for Port 9)
Use the following commands to enable ports:
phyWrite C 0 1140
(This command is for Port 0)
phyWrite D 0 1140
(This command is for Port 1)
phyWrite E 0 1140
(This command is for Port 8)
phyWrite F 0 1140
(This command is for Port 9)
To make this change permanent, enter into the u-boot shell add the previous command in the bootcmd
variable. Below is an example:
setenv bootcmd 'sflash read 100000 2000000 300000; setenv bootargs $(bootargs_mtd); phyWrite
C 0 1940; bootm 2000000;'
saveenv

Setting-up a NFS Server
4.4.2.1
Preparing a Shared Directory
Create a folder for mounting a disk partition:
# mkdir /mnt/disk1
Mount the disk partition:
# mount /dev/sda1 /mnt/disk1
The partition can be mounted automatically during the boot. For auto mounting use the following command:
# echo “/dev/sda1 /mnt/disk1 ext3 defaults 0 0” >> /etc/fstab
