Introduction

Chapter 1: Introduction

Based on a new generation high-performance OCTEON
network processors ( Models have CN50xx series single
and dual core or CN30xx series single and dual core MIPS
processor), the MR-320 offers up to 2 cnMIPS64 cores on a
single chip. The chipset supports a variety of I/O interfaces
including Gigabit Ethernet, USB and Mini-PCI interfaces.
The built-in encryption TCP acceleration, and QoS engine
provides reliable security functions at top speed. These
advanced acceleration technologies are integrated in the
4 port Gigabit Ethernet switch and the dual Gigabit WAN
port, making it a perfect platform for high quality voice,
video and data services.

The Quick Start Guide will takes you through the basic
steps necessary to install your MR-320 System.

Please refer to the chart below for a summary of the

F5

It is an LED indicator (amber) for the CompactFlash card. If the LED is on, it indicates that the system’s storage is functional.
If it is off, it indicates that the system’s storage is not functional. If it is flashing, it indicates data access activities.

F3 Status

If the LED is green, it indicates that the system’s operational state is normal. If it is amber, it indicates that the system is
malfunctioning.

F4 Switch

These LEDs are indicators for the four ports of the switch module on the back panel.

Speed LED: If the LED is amber, it indicates that the connection speed is 1000Mbps. If the LED is green, it indicates that
the connection speed is 100Mbps. And if it is off, it indicates that the speed is 10Mbps.

Link/ACT LED: If the LED is on, it indicates that the port is active. If it blinks, it indicates that there is traffic.

F5 GbE-1/GbE-2

These LEDs are indicators for the two Gigabit Ethernet ports which can serve as WAN connections on the back panel. For
the LED behavior, refer to the above Speed and Link/ACT LED description of F4.

R1 Power Adapter socket

It requires a DC 12V/2A power input. Only use the power adapter supplied with the MR-320 System.

R2 Reset Switch

It is a hardware reset switch. Use a pointed object to press it 5 seconds then release it to reset the system without
turning off the power.

R3 RS-232 COM Port:

It requires a DB-9 Male Connector. Using suitable RS-232 cable, you can connect an appropriate device, for example, a
terminal console for diagnostics.

Terminal Configuration Parameters: 115200 baud, 8 data bits, no parity, 1 stop bit , no flow control.

R4 USB 2.0 Ports

It connects to any USB devices, for example, a flash drive. Besides this external USB port, there is another one offered
with the onboard pin header connectors (refer to Jumper Setting on Chapter 3 Motherboard Information)

R5 4 Ethernet LAN Port switch module (From left to right: LAN1 to LAN4)

Using suitable RJ-45 cable, you can connect MR-320 System to a computer, or to any other piece of equipment that has
an Ethernet connection such as a hub or a switch.

R6 Gigabit WAN Port1(Left) and Port2(Right)

These two ports can be utilized for broadband connection to connect the device to an Internet service. Since the GbE-1
and GbE-2 ports are separate from the above mentioned switch module, implementation of routing is required for the
LAN ports on the switch (R5) to connect the Internet.

Chapter 2: Hardware Setup

Preparing the Hardware Installation

To access some components and perform certain service
procedures, you must perform the following procedures
first.

WARNING: To reduce the risk of personal injury,
electric shock, or damage to the equipment,
remove the power cord to remove power from
the server. The front panel Power On/Standby
button (if there is one) does not completely shut
off system power. Portions of the power supply
and some internal circuitry remain active until AC
power is removed.

Unpower the MR-320 and remove the power cord.1.

Unscrew the 8 threaded screws from the two sides and 2.
two screws at the rear of the top cover of the MR-320
System.

Installing a CompactFlash Card

MR-320 provides one CompactFlash slot slot. Follow the
procedures bellow to install a CompactFlash card.

Building the Bootloader Image

Chapter 4: Building the Bootloader Image

Building the U-boot image

To rebuild u-boot for the EM-8230 board, run the following
commands to compile the bootloader configuration file in
the u-boot directory whose path is bootloader/u-boot/:

MR320# cd /bootloader/u-boot

MR320# make MR320_config

MR320# make

It will create a boot image file: u-boot-MR320.bin.

Updating the U-boot Image

There are two u-boot images in flash– the failsafe
bootloader and the normal bootloader. The failsafe
bootloader is programmed by Lanner before the board is
shipped and cannot be updated. The failsafe bootloader
provides a means to recover from a failed loading of the
bootloader. The board also contains a normal bootloader
as well, and that is upgradable. To upgrade the bootloader,
, put the new bootloader image onto a compact flash card,
insert the card to the Main board, and power it up.

And then reset the board.

Note: Remember to configure the Ethernet port

first by setting the following variables:

MR320#setenv ipaddr 192.168.0.2

MR320#setenv serverip 192.168.0.1

MR320#saveenv

port:

MR320# loadb 100000

## Total Size = 0x00795670 = 7951984 Bytes

Load the image into memory with the command:

MR320# fatload ide 0 100000 <bootloader image

filename>

Burn the new bootloader image with the command:

MR320# run bootloader_flash_update

Nuke environment variables on the flash.

MR320# run nuke_env

Reset the board. It will boot up with the new bootloader.

Another method is through the tftp over the network:

The physical address of the flash is: 0xbf400000

MR320#tftp 100000 <bootloader image filename>

MR320#run bootloader_flash_update

## Start Addr = 0x00b000000

Recovering from a failsafe bootload

If booting from the normal bootloader fails, the failsafe
bootloader can be used to recover the normal bootloader
image. You can boot up with the failsafe bootloader
image to recover the normal bootloader when it cannot
bootup successfully.

Adjust jumper JP5 to Failsafe bootloader (refer to jumper
settings, Chapter 3) on the main board. This will select
failsafe bootloader to bootup, and then power on the
board. The failsafe bootloader image should now boot
and press “Crtl - C” to interrupt factory test. The bootloader
prompt should identify itself as the failsafe bootloader.
Following the instructions below to update normal-mode
bootloader:

Power on the system, press “ctrl - C” while the following
messages are displayed during the booting process:

Building the Bootloader Image

MR320#bootoctlinux <addr> [coremask=<hexmask>]

Clearing DRAM........ done

BIST check passed.

Bus 0 (CF Card): OK

ide 0: Model: InnoDisk Corp. - iCF2000 512MB
Firm: YUAN1026 Ser#:

Type: Hard Disk

Capacity: 495.6 MB = 0.4 GB (1015056 x 512)

Then, Execute the following procedures:

Load the image to the DRAM with the command:

MR320# fatload ide 0 100000 image-filename

Burn the new image with the command:

MR320# run bootloader_flash_update

Burn the new image with the command:

MR320#run bootloader_flash_update

Nuke environment variables on flash.

MR320# Failsafe bootloader#run nuke_env

Booting from the CompactFlash Card

Type the following command to load the program into
the RAM:

MR320# fatload ide 0 <addr> <file name>

<addr> is the address where the program was loaded
by using the fatload command listed above

<hexmask> optionally specifies which cores will execute
the program on.

Note: To boot up the linux O.S. from the

CompactFlash, use the following method as a
guideline to make the Linux kernel and copy it on
to the CF Card.

Build Linux for the MR-320.

$ cd $(OCTEON_ROOT_Directory)/linux

$ make -s clean

$ make -s kernel

Copy the Linux kernel to a compact flash.

$ mkdir -p /mnt/cfa1

$ mips64-octeon-linux-gnu-strip kernel_2.6/linux/

vmlinux.64

$ fdisk -l /dev/cfa1

$ mount /dev/cfa1 /mnt/cf

$ cp kernel_2.6/linux/vmlinux.64 /mnt/cf

$ sync

$ umount /mnt/cf

<addr> is the address in which the file will be loaded
in memory.

For example: 21000000

<file name> is the name of the bootloader image on
the CF

For Example :traffic-gen

Follow these procedures to boot programs from CF card:

boot diagnostic bin first by typing the command:

MR320# bootoct <addr> [coremask=<hexmask>]

then, boot linux kernel bin by typing the command

Bootloader Functionalities

Chapter 5: Bootloader Functionalities

The bootloader has several functionalities including
initializing the SDRAM and FLASH, downloading and
upgrading Bootloader, as well as loading and executing
the Operating System.

Here are some useful commands that can be used in the
Bootloader environment:

Configuring/Save the environment variables:

We are setting the MR-320’s IP address as an example:

MR320# setenv serverip 192.168.0.72

MR320# setenv ipaddr 192.168.0.2

MR320# saveenv
