MATLAB can not connect to ZedBoard through Ethernet

Former Member
Former Member over 10 years ago

Hello,

Iu2019m trying to use the external mode in MATLAB (2015b) with ZedBoard (Rev. D) as the target hardware.

I have done all the configurations required through u201Ctargetupdateru201D function of MATLAB.

I use the direct connection between MATLAB and Zedboard.

Host PC Network Setting:IP: 169.254.1.1 - Mask: 255.255.0.0

ZedBoard:IP: 169.254.1.10 - Mask: 255.255.0.0

Connection is done through a RJ45 Cat.5e cable.

I can ping the ZedBoard (IP: 169.254.1.10) from my host PC (both sending and receiving data).
I can log in to the linux system on Zedboard through UART (Putty terminal) and I have verified the ip address of ZedBorad with u201Cifconfigu201D command.
I can log in to the linux system on Zedboard through UART (Putty terminal) and ping my host pc (IP: 169.254.1.1) when my firewall is off (both sending and receiving data).
I can log in to the linux system on ZedBoard through SSH (Putty terminal, IP: 169.254.1.10, port 22).

Yet, when I run the commands:
z = zynq;
z = z.SetupZynqHardware;
z = z.CheckConnection;


Matlab issues the following error:
"Error using zynq.util.LinuxServices/checkConnection (line 410)
Cannot connect to Zynq Hardware at IP Address "169.254.1.10".
Click here to view the troubleshooting guide and verify the IP Address settings of your hardware."

I have changed Host PC ip address to 169.254.1.5: It didnu2019t work
I have changed the network cable: it didnu2019t work
I tried crossover Ethernet cable: it didnu2019t work
I tried to connect both PC and ZedBoard to our server, I still could ping both of them and yet MATLAB couldnu2019t connect to ZedBoard.

Iu2019m out of ideas how to fix this problem.
Could you please help me and explain to me what I have to do?

Thank you

    Hi Matt, Meanwhile I was able to solve the problem and enable the ethernet communication between MATLAB and Zedboad. I only had to delete the "saved sessions" which I had in PuTTY and put the Zedboard…

    Hi everyone,

     

    I have a problem at the moment to run the support package configuration.  When I run "“targetupdater” command inMATLAB, it shows me an error which says " Error: Connect the Hardware   Undefined function or variable 'mxgetnicinfo'. Do you know how to solve it?

    Thanks in advance,

    Romel
