9.1 Running the Design in Static IP Mode

The following steps describe how to run the design in static IP mode.

Note: This procedure provide steps to run the webserver design. To run IAP using the TFTP design, perform the same steps by opening the IAP_TFTP project in SoftConsole.
  1. In SoftConsole Project Explorer window, right click the webserver (gbe_webserver) project, and select Properties, as shown in Figure 9-2.
  2. In Properties for gbe_webserver window, remove the NET_USE_DCHP symbol listed under Defined symbols (-D), and click Apply and Close, as shown in the following figure.
    Figure 9-4. Properties for gbe_webserver
  3. Change the host TCP/IP settings to connect with the board that has static IP address, 169.254.1.23. The following figure shows the host PC TCP/IP settings.

  4. Connect the PolarFire Evaluation board port J15 to Host PC using the RJ45 Ethernet cable.
  5. After configuring the settings, compile the design, load it into the memory, and run it using SoftConsole. The Serial terminal shows board static IP:

    /*CoreTSE WebServer using Mi-V SoftProcessor*/

    Acquiring IP address.

    169.254.1.23

  6. Use the IP address in the web browser to display the Microchip web page.
