4.2.2. Specifying a remote host simulator

To access a remote host simulator using RealView Simulator Broker you must use the Connection Properties window to define the location of the remote workstation in your connection entries and target configuration settings in your board file, shown in Figure 4.1.

There are two ways to do this:

RVBROKER

This entry specifies the location of a host that supports simulators. By default RVBROKER=localhost defines the local simulators. See Connecting to a remote host simulator for details.

rvbroker.brd

This entry enables the inclusion of a special hosts file containing a list of all network nodes that can run, or are running, RealView Simulator Broker. See Defining remote targets in a hosts file for details.

You can combine both types of entry in the same board file.
