Release Notes for CCII END GE  Driver
-------------------------------------


Version      : 1.0
Release date : 2007-02-28


1. Getting Started
   ---------------

1.1. Boot vxWorks and load the ccGeEndxxx.a lib with 'ld < ccGeEndxxx'.
     Where xxx=X86    for X86 HCC
           xxx=18x    for SVME/DMV-181/182/183 HCC
           xxx=Mv5100 for Motorola MVME-5100 HCC
1.2. Type 'muxDevStart ( muxDevLoad ( 0 , geLoad,"",0,0 ))' to  start the driver.
1.3. Type 'ipAttach ( 0, "ccge" ) to attach the driver to TCP/IP.
     Verify that the ccge0 device exists by typing 'ifShow'.
1.4. Set the IP address using ifAddrSet.
1.5. Confirm the GE connection using ping. An example is shown below
     (NOTE: This example assumes there is already another NIC on the GE LAN which
     has been set up with an IP address of 10.0.0.1):
      -> muxDevStart ( muxDevLoad ( 0 , geLoad,"",0,0 ))
      value = 0 = 0x0
      -> ifShow
      lo (unit number 0):
           Flags: (0x69) UP LOOPBACK ARP RUNNING
           Internet address: 127.0.0.1
           Netmask 0xff000000 Subnetmask 0xff000000
           Metric is 0
           Maximum Transfer Unit size is 32758
           0 packets received; 0 packets sent
           0 input errors; 0 output errors
           0 collisions
      ccge (unit number 0):
           Flags: (0x63) UP BROADCAST ARP RUNNING
           Netmask 0xffffffff Subnetmask 0xffffffff
           Ethernet address is 00:00:5a:45:f0:46
           Metric is 0

           18 packets received; 0 packets sent
           0 input errors; 0 output errors
           0 collisions
      value = 18 = 0x12
      -> ipAttach 0, "ccge0"
      value = 0 = 0x0
      -> ifAddrSet "ccge0","10.0.0.4"
      value = 0 = 0x0
      -> ping "10.0.0.1"
      PING 10.0.0.1: 56 data bytes
      64 bytes from 10.0.0.1: icmp_seq=1. time=0. ms
      64 bytes from 10.0.0.1: icmp_seq=2. time=0. ms
      64 bytes from 10.0.0.1: icmp_seq=3. time=0. ms
      64 bytes from 10.0.0.1: icmp_seq=4. time=0. ms
      64 bytes from 10.0.0.1: icmp_seq=5. time=0. ms

    ccgeStats can be used to get some statistics from the driver.
