DFU based boot
.. am62x_evm_rst_include_end_dfu_boot
+Ethernet based boot
+-------------------
+
+To boot the board via Ethernet, configure the BOOT MODE pins for Ethernet boot.
+
+On powering on the device, ROM uses the Ethernet Port corresponding to CPSW3G's MAC
+Port 1 to transmit "TI K3 Bootp Boot".
+
+The TFTP server and DHCP server on the receiver device need to be configured such
+that VCI string "TI K3 Bootp Boot" maps to the file `tiboot3.bin` and the TFTP
+server should be capable of transferring it to the device.
+
+**Configuring DHCP server includes following steps:**
+
+* Install DHCP server:
+
+.. prompt:: bash $
+
+ sudo apt install isc-dhcp-server
+
+* Disable services before configuring:
+
+.. prompt:: bash $
+
+ sudo systemctl disable --now isc-dhcp-server.service isc-dhcp-server6.service
+
+* DHCP server setup
+
+Run the ip link or ifconfig command to find the name of your network interface:
+
+Example
+
+.. code-block::
+
+ eno1: flags=4163<UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,MULTICAST> mtu 1500

+
+Suppose we are using enxf8e43b8cffe8 interface, one end of it is connected to host PC
+and other to board.
+
+* Do the following changes in /etc/dhcp/dhcpd.conf in host PC.
+
+.. code-block::
+
+ subnet 192.168.0.0 netmask 255.255.254.0
+ {
+ range dynamic-bootp 192.168.0.2 192.168.0.5;
+ if substring (option vendor-class-identifier, 0, 16) = "TI K3 Bootp Boot"
+ {
+ filename "tiboot3.bin";
+ } elsif substring (option vendor-class-identifier, 0, 20) = "AM62X U-Boot R5 SPL"
+ {
+ filename "tispl.bin";
+ } elsif substring (option vendor-class-identifier, 0, 21) = "AM62X U-Boot A53 SPL"
+ {
+ filename "u-boot.img";
+ }
+ default-lease-time 60000;
+ max-lease-time 720000;
+ next-server 192.168.0.1;
+ }
+
+* Do following changes in /etc/default/isc-dhcp-server
+
+.. code-block::
+
+ DHCPDv4_CONF=/etc/dhcp/dhcpd.conf
+ INTERFACESv4="enxf8e43b8cffe8"
+ INTERFACESv6=""
+
+* For your interface change ip address and netmask to next-server and your netmask
+
+.. prompt:: bash $
+
+ sudo ifconfig enxf8e43b8cffe8 192.168.0.1 netmask 255.255.254.0
+
+* Enable DHCP
+
+.. prompt:: bash $
+
+ sudo systemctl enable --now isc-dhcp-server
+
+* To see if there is any configuration error or if dhcp is running run
+
+.. prompt:: bash $
+
+ sudo service isc-dhcp-server status
+ # If it shows error then something is wrong with configuration
+
+**For TFTP setup follow below steps:**
+
+* Install TFTP server:
+
+.. prompt:: bash $
+
+ sudo apt install tftpd-hpa
+
+tftpd-hpa package should be installed.
+
+Now, check whether the tftpd-hpa service is running with the following command:
+
+.. prompt:: bash $
+
+ sudo systemctl status tftpd-hpa
+
+* Configuring TFTP server:
+
+The default configuration file of tftpd-hpa server is /etc/default/tftpd-hpa.
+If you want to configure the TFTP server, then you have to modify this configuration
+file and restart the tftpd-hpa service afterword.
+
+To modify the /etc/default/tftpd-hpa configuration file, run the following command
+
+.. prompt:: bash $
+
+ sudo vim /etc/default/tftpd-hpa
+
+Configuration file may contain following configuration options by default:
+
+.. code-block::
+
+ # /etc/default/tftpd-hpa
+
+ TFTP_USERNAME="tftp"
+ TFTP_DIRECTORY="/var/lib/tftpboot"
+ TFTP_ADDRESS=":69"
+ TFTP_OPTIONS="--secure"
+
+Now change the **TFTP_DIRECTORY** to **/tftp** and add the **--create** option to the
+**TFTP_OPTIONS**. Without the **--create** option, you won't be able to create or upload
+new files to the TFTP server. You will only be able to update existing files.
+
+After above changes /etc/default/tftpd-hpa file would look like this:
+
+.. code-block::
+
+ # /etc/default/tftpd-hpa
+
+ TFTP_USERNAME="tftp"
+ TFTP_DIRECTORY="/tftp"
+ TFTP_ADDRESS=":69"
+ TFTP_OPTIONS="--secure --create"
+
+Since we have configured tftp directory as /tftp, put tiboot3.bin, tispl.bin
+and u-boot.img after building it using sdk or manually cloning all the repos.
+
+To build binaries use following defconfig files:
+
+.. code-block::
+
+ am62x_evm_r5_ethboot_defconfig
+ am62x_evm_a53_ethboot_defconfig
+
+`tiboot3.bin` is expected to be built from `am62x_evm_r5_ethboot_defconfig` and
+`tispl.bin` and `u-boot.img` are expected to be built from
+`am62x_evm_a53_ethboot_defconfig`.
+
+Images should get fetched in following sequence as a part of boot procedure:
+
+.. code-block::
+
+ tiboot3.bin => tispl.bin => u-boot.img
+
+ROM loads and executes `tiboot3.bin` provided by the TFTP server.
+
+Next, based on NET_VCI_STRING string mentioned in respective defconfig file `tiboot3.bin`
+fetches `tispl.bin` and then `tispl.bin` fetches `u-boot.img` from TFTP server which
+completes Ethernet boot on the device.
