Hi Everyone,
I'm using u-boot on a MPC8272ADS board and I'm experiencing the following behavior -
From a cold start u-boot starts up and downloads my OS via bootp fine.
Whenever the MPC8272ADS
is reset in any way other than cycling the power the network software doesn't seem to receive any packets.
The MPC8272ADS is able to ping other hosts but it won't answer any pings from the other hosts.
Has anyone seen this behavior?
Thanks,
Stan Kuciej

Sure. This is normal behaviour. U-Boot does not reply to network traffic of any kind.

Best regards,

Wolfgang Denk
