Configure two network adapters with QNX 6.2.1

[t***@gmail.com]

Hi,

I have a embedded system (PC/104+ based) running on QNX 6.2.1 which has a Ethernet adapter (AMD PCNET (AMD-79c97x)), and
the QNX boot script looks like

io-net -d pcnet transmit=64,reveive=32,verbose=2 -p tcpip &
waitfor /dev/socket

This works fine.

Now I need to expand the function of this embedded system by adding another Ethernet adapter. I have added a PC/104+
Ethernet module (http://www.dpie.com/pc104/mercator.html) and made the following change to the QNX boot script

io-net -d pcnet transmit=64,reveive=32,verbose=2 -p tcpip &
waitfor /dev/socket
mount -T io-net devn-ns83815.so
waitfor /dev/socket 5

This doesn't work. I have the following message on the terminal
mount: Can't mount / (type io-net)
mount: Possible reason: No such device

Any help will be appreciated.

Thanks
Thanushan

I guess you have to give options to setup the driver correctly.

Hello,

I'd some success by trying the following script

io-net -d pcnet -d ns83815 -p tcpip&
waitfor /dev/socket
waitfor /dev/io-net/en1 5


when I ping the ns83815 from the connected PC I'm getting intermittent ping time out.
If anybody know the reason for this or had similar issue please let me know.

Thanks,
Thanushan
