4.3.2 Determine the Target IP Address

Ensure that the target board and host PC are connected to the same network. Otherwise, communication between them will fail.

Replace 10.40.24.175 in the preceding scp commands with the actual IP address of the target board. On the target, run the following:

root@<board-name>:~# ifconfig
eth0      Link encap:Ethernet  HWaddr 04:91:62:42:F6:75
          inet addr:10.40.24.175  Bcast:10.40.24.255  Mask:255.255.255.0
          inet6 addr: fe80::691:62ff:fe42:f675/64 Scope:Link
          UP BROADCAST RUNNING MULTICAST  MTU:1500  Metric:1
          RX packets:54418 errors:0 dropped:360 overruns:0 frame:0
          TX packets:939 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0
          collisions:0 txqueuelen:1000
          RX bytes:5176861 (4.9 MiB)  TX bytes:63397 (61.9 KiB)
          Interrupt:156 Base address:0x8000

Use the value shown next to inet addr as the target IP address.
