The Arria II GX FPGA Development Kit ships with the Board Update Portal design
example stored in the factory portion of the flash memory on the board. The design
consists of a Nios II embedded processor, an Ethernet MAC, and an HTML web
server.
When you power up the board with the USER_LOAD switch (SW4.4) in the off
position, the Arria II GX FPGA configures with the Board Update Portal design
example. The design can obtain an IP address from any DHCP server and serve a web
page from the flash on your board to any host computer on the same network. The
web page allows you to upload new FPGA designs to the user hardware portion of
flash memory, and provides links to useful information on the Altera website,
including kit-specific links and design resources.
After successfully updating the user hardware flash memory, you can load the user
design from flash memory into the FPGA. To do so, set the USER_LOAD switch
(SW4.4) to the on position and power cycle the board.
The source code for the Board Update Portal design resides in the <install
dir>\kits\arriaIIGX_2agx125_fpga\examples directory. If the Board Update Portal is
corrupted or deleted from the flash memory, refer to
the Factory Settings” on page A–4
