The orin dev kit needs to be setup a static IP of 192.168.0.6 for it to talk to other devices in the application over which I dont have control.
I tried setting up the static IP by adding the following to the “/etc/network/interfaces” file.
auto eth0
iface eth0 inet static
address 192.168.0.6
netmask 255.255.255.0
gateway 192.168.0.1
network 192.168.0.0
After a reboot, the eth0 interface does show a valid IP of “192.168.0.6” but does not communicate to any other device connected to it. I have also tried using a crossover adapter like this
The weird thing is that if I use a switch between the other devices and the Orin dev kit with this same static IP setup, everything just works. I cannot really use a switch in my application.
Can anyone help me with what is going on and how can this be fixed?
