Getting started with IGEP MODULE

Introduction

This page describes how to use the USB device (or OTG) port of your OMAP3 IGEP module to communicate with your PC.

The HS USB OTG port is used as the default power input,

By default the module interface will have the IP address 192.168.7.2

Linux Host USB Network Configuration

You should have the usbnet module available for your Linux kernel. On most distributions, this is the case by default. If this is not the case for your distribution, you will need to enable USB networking support in the kernel. If you build your own kernel then you want 'CDC Ethernet support' in USB Network adaptors.

Ubuntu 10.04 LTS Lucid Lynx

In the file /etc/network/interfaces, you should add a section which looks like this:

auto usb0
iface usb0 inet static
    address 192.168.7.1
    network 192.168.7.0
    netmask 255.255.255.0
    broadcast 192.168.7.255
    gateway 192.168.7.1

Connect to board using ssh

$ ssh -l root 192.168.7.2

RSA key fingerprint is 9d:0e:ba:02:2a:76:e4:5f:d1:c1:9b:2d:85:6c:83:d4.
Are you sure you want to continue connecting (yes/no)? yes
