[edk2] Problems using UEFI Network Stack and the FTP-Tool @ NT32-Emulator Shell

[Michael Lorer]

Hello again,

I've got some problems using the UEFI Network Stack in a NT32-Emulator Shell.
I compiled the NetNT32Io.dll an can load the different drivers:
SnpNt32Dxe.efi
MnpDxe.efi
ArpDxe.efi
IP4Dxe.efi
Ip4ConfigDxe.efi
Udp4Dxe.efi
Dhcp4Dxe.efi
MtFtpDxe.efi
Tcp4Dxe.efi

I've got two network interfaces eth0 and eth1. eth1 is connected to a local network with a DHCP Server running.
So I used
ifconfig -s eth dhcp
to get an ipadress from the dhcp server an it seems to work.

I get the following result for ifconfig -l eth1:
MAC: 00-19-...
Media State: Media present
Source: DHCP
Perment: FALSE
IP address: 10.10.30.158 (is different from the ip adress I get in the consol in windows where the emulator is running. I think thats ok)
Mask: 255.255.0.0
Gateway: 10.10.1.9

Routes (2 entries):
Entry[0]
Subnet: 10.10.0.0
Netmask: 255.255.0.0
Gateway: 0.0.0.0
Entry[1]
Subnet: 0.0.0.0
Netmask: 0.0.0.0
Gateway: 10.10.1.9

If I use the ping command with the eth1 interface I get a response from the Gateway.
But if I try to ping the windows workstation with the IP from the windows console (where a FTP-Server is running too) I can't get any response.

I also tried to get something working using ipconfig instead of ifconfig. But using that command I only get the following error:
MAC Adress: Same as mentioned above for eth1
Broadcast MAC: FF FF FF FF FF FF
ipconfig: Locate protocol error - 'PXE DHCP protocol'

Because I cannot ping my own windows maschine I think it's also not possible to get a connection using the ftp client from the EFI Toolkit?!?

I'm completly new to everything around UEFI. So thanks in advanced for any help.
Regards,
Michael

Hello,

problem solved.
It was a wrong configuration of the Windows firewall. Response to Ping Requests was not activated:
Windows XP: Start -> Settings -> Security Center -> Manage Security Settings for: Windows Firewall
--> Advanced --> ICMP --> Settings... --> Allow incoming echo requests

Regards,
Michael
