演習の解説

  • Lab 1 - Analyzing Ethernet Frames: Understand components of Ethernet frames and how the packets flow. Analyze various packets and observe how the core reacts to MAC address changes.
  • Lab 2 - VLAN and Jumbo Frames: Modify the configuration register to enable and observe the effects of VLAN and jumbo frames. Understand statistics vectors.
  • Lab 3 - Implementation: Use CORE Generator™ software to generate a gigabit Ethernet core and then proceed with the implementation flow.
  • Lab 4 - EMAC Peripheral in Loopback Mode: Use the EDK to instantiate and connect the OPB EMAC peripheral to the OPB bus. Develop software to place the core in loopback mode.
  • Lab 5 - TEMAC in Loopback Mode: Use the EDK to instantiate a hard TEMAC and soft PLB TEMAC wrapper. Configure cores in scatter gather DMA mode. Use three programs to test the hardware in polled, simple DMA, and scatter gather DMA modes after placing the hardware in loopback mode.
  • Lab 6 - Analyzing 10GE MAC Frames: Use the ModelSim simulator to perform functional simulation. Analyze various frames from XGMII and the client interface point of view.
