28 MPC8240 and MPC8260 Emulation
Chapter 2: Connecting the Emulation Probe to a LAN
You can connect your PC, workstation, or logic analysis
system to the emulation probe via a serial or LAN connection.
Serial connection
A serial connection allows you to complete all of the
performance verification tests and set LAN parameters. Other
use of the serial port is not supported.
LAN connection
A LAN connection will allow you to make your measurements
quickly and easily. A few of the performance verification tests
cannot be run over a LAN.
Recommended connection
Use a LAN connection for routine use, and a serial connection
for LAN configuration and for troubleshooting.
