Setting Static IP Address for DSTREAM

Fadil Saat

Hi guys!

I'm trying to help troubleshoot my customer's target connection to the DSTREAM. Initially I ran rvi_log_client on DOS but the information was not enough, so I've got to use DAPlog and CSAT. For DAPlog, I understand that due to some bug, DAPlog cannot run on USB, so I have to use an Ethernet crossover cable. Being a newbie, I connected it directly to my host computer, and of course it didn't work. The problem lies in setting a static IP address to my DSTREAM.

Already, I've ran 'debug hardware config IP', deselecting DHCP and then entering the network information as per instructions found on ARM's website. http://infocenter.ar...qs/ka3908.html. After configuration and replacing my USB cable with the Ethernet crossover cable, I can't get it to run. Using DHCP is no different - the IP address remains stuck at 127.0.0.2, which I know is wrong. I've also tried the host computer's IP address+1. Same result.

The result are;
1. When I run csat.exe, I can't connect to the DSTREAM through TCP/IP. It could only connect through USB, probably because 127.0.0.2 is not the correct IP address of the DSTREAM.
2. When I tried daplog, I got this message "Failed to connect to the RIFS server".


Any ideas on how to solve these issues? I've been on this for the past 5 days.

    Hi Fadil,

    You will need to set both the DSTREAM and your PC to use a static IP address i.e. do _not_ use DHCP at all

    First set the DSTREAM to 192.168.1.2 (say) with a net mask of 255.255.255.0 and a gateway of 192.168.1.1.
    Next set your PC to 192.168.1.1 (say) again with a net mask of 255.255.255.0 and a gateway of 192.168.1.1.

    You should not be able to use all the DSTREAM console tools by specifying a DSTREAM connection address of 192.168.1.2 (for some of the tools you need to use TCP:192.168.1.2 but for others you can omit the TCP: prefix). For some PCs you must use an ethernet cross over cable, but for others they can auto detect the cable type and a standard cable will also work.

    When you have finished using the dap logger and with to use you computer on the network again, dont forget to undo the changes to your PC's network configuration.

    Hi Tony,

    OK thank your for the info! I've been aimless all this while and now I have something to work with. It's been a bugbear of mine as the TCP/IP address of my DSTREAM keeps showing up as 127.0.0.2 which I know is a dummy address. Right, I'll work on this one and let you know if it worked for me.

    Regards,
