5. Board Update Portal
The Stratix V 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 DIP switch SW5.3 in the off position, the
Stratix V 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 1 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 1 flash memory, you can load the user
design from flash memory into the FPGA. To do so, set the DIP switch SW5.3 to the on
position and power cycle the board, which loads the user 1 design into flash.
The source code for the Board Update Portal design resides in the <install
dir> \kits\stratixVGX_5sgxea7kf40_fpga\examples directory. If the Board Update
Portal is corrupted or deleted from the flash memory, refer to “Restoring the Flash
Device to the Factory Settings” on page A–4 to restore the board with its original
factory contents.

Before you proceed, ensure that you have the following:
■ A PC with a connection to a working Ethernet port on a DHCP enabled network.
■ A separate working Ethernet port connected to the same network for the board.
■
The Ethernet and power cables that are included in the kit.
To connect to the Board Update Portal web page, perform these steps:
1. With the board powered down, set the DIP switch SW5.3 to the off position, which
loads the factory design into flash.
2. Attach the Ethernet cable from the board to your LAN.
3. Power up the board. The board connects to the LAN’s gateway router, and obtains
an IP address. The LCD on the board displays the IP address.
4. Launch a web browser on a PC that is connected to the same network, and enter
the IP address from the LCD into the browser address bar. The Board Update
Portal web page appears in the browser.
