What’s new in NET+Works 6.2

Major NET+OS 6.2 features New Development Tools Support for the NS9360 Security Features Discovery Tools USB memory class driver FAT32 File system support Major BSP and TCP/IP Performance Improvements

Development Tool Chains GHS Tool Chain Microcross GNU  Smaller Footprint Images  Improved Optimization for speed  Tool upgrade is necessary  GNU support for DSP Instructions  Overall Tighter and improved performance

Support for 9360 Support for the 9360 Development Board New 9360 specific drivers  RTC  PWM

New Security Features SNMPv3 Secure / Remote Management SNMPv3 Security uses shared secrets and includes: »message authentication »privacy »authorization and access control ESMTP Used by most ISPs to confirm senders access rights and prevents SPAM Mobile users who switch hosts can use same mail server Example: laptop + wireless hotspot -> mail servers would reject messages User Access Control includes authentication methods: »Login / Plain / CRAM-MD5 / MD5

New Security Features – cont. DES/3-DES/AES Encryption API Provides pseudorandom function with a shared secret key LDAPv Uses the OpenLDAP project (as is). LDAPv3 provides Access to directories for management and browser applications Secure authentication mechanism

ADDP Discovery Tool Discovers ADDP Devices on a broad network Windows Client SW available Allows end users to easily deploy new units and configure their network settings Makes Device Networking Easy for customers

USB Memory Class Driver/FAT32 File system support USB Host Memory Class Driver support (ARM9) Interfaces directly to FAT32 File system Can use a Flash stick to copy files to target  Easy to use for Configuration parameters  Extract run time data

BSP Performance Improvements Improved ARM9 (9750, 9360) Interrupt latency Reduced critical time in ARM9 platforms Max ~ 5usec max Improved ARM9 MMU usage model Write-back cache v. write-through Big contributor to performance boost Improved memcpy() Improved and Easy-to-use Device Drivers: New SPI Master API Supports high speed DMA across all platforms New SPI Slave API New I2C Master API

TCP/IP Performance Improvements Address Conflict Detection API Per Internet Draft “IPv4 Address Conflict Detection” Increased TCP/IP Tuning Options for Low Latency / High Performance Pre-allocated Static Memory Allocation Run-Time Programmable MSL Will reduce memory needs for network heap Improved Performance 15-50% improvements on GHS. Even more on GNU.

Web Server Run Time Features New Features to allow run-time control of web server parameters Port number Persistance timeout Session timeout Number of Connections Ability to RST connections instead of close Reduces memory usage Corrected the ability to serve large web objects

Improved FTP Interoperability Extended interoperability to include WS_FTP and most of IE. Better handling of the PASV mode Present support for: Windows, Linux, Unix, and Mozilla.
