Reference Design Details
Software
There are two major software components to monitor and control the Ethernet Reference
Design System:
•
•
MicroBlaze Processor Server Application
shows these components.
GUI/Client Application
A Java-based GUI/Client application running on the control computer communicates with
the MicroBlaze Processor Server Application through a UART interface to control test
parameters, collect statistics, and display current status of the design.
The GUI displays the following information:
• Current mode of operation
• Payload size
• Throughput numbers and graphs when a test is executing
• 10-Gigabit Ethernet MAC IP statistics
• Power consumption and temperature for the FPGA
• Block diagram of the design
