I am currently working with a cRIO 9048, which is running embedded Linux. At the moment, I am interfacing with it via ethernet over USB to my desktop. I need the cRIO to communicate with a board developed in-house. Of course, there is not much info to go on for this board, but it seems that there is no way to configure IP. I can establish tcp communication with it when using a router. However, I would like to remove the router from the equation and have it connected directly to the cRIO. This is where the problem appears. When I simply connect the device to the cRIO's eth0 port, it does not appear anywhere, of course. I have ssh'd into the cRIO and configured a DHCP server to work on the eth0 interface that the external board is connected to. This much works, as I can then ping the static IP address that I have assigned to the device. However, when I try to connect to that same IP inside of labVIEW (running on the cRIO) with the tcp/ip vi, I get an error 63. Now, the vi that I was given to connect to this board uses port 8989 by default. But since we are connecting directly from the cRIO, which is also acting as a router, I'm not sure if this is a problem.
Perhaps this is due to my lack of knowledge regarding networking or LabVIEW, but in either case, any help would be greatly appreciated.
