Getting Started
Installing the Module
Notice To prevent damage to the module caused by ESD or contamination, handle
the module using the edges or the metal bracket.
1. Ensure the AC power source is connected to the chassis before installing the module.
The AC power cord grounds the chassis and protects it from electrical damage while you
install the module.
2. Power off the chassis.
3. Inspect the slot pins on the chassis backplane for any bends or damage prior to
installation. Do not install a module if the backplane is damaged.
4. Remove the black plastic covers from all the captive screws on the module front panel.
5. Identify a supported slot in the chassis. The following figure shows the symbols that
indicate the slot types.

stability and also electrically connects the front panel to the chassis, which can
improve the signal quality and electromagnetic performance.
11. Cover all empty slots using EMC filler panels or fill using slot blockers to maximize
cooling air flow, depending on your application.
12. Power on the chassis.
Configuring the Module in MAX
Note NI-XNET software, which includes hardware drivers, can be installed before
or after the module is installed.
Use Measurement & Automation Explorer (MAX) to configure your NI hardware. MAX
informs other programs about which devices reside in the system and how they are configured.
1. Launch MAX.
2. In the configuration tree, expand Devices and Interfaces to see the list of installed NI
hardware.
Note If you do not see your module listed, press <F5> to refresh the list of
installed modules. If the module is still not listed, power off the system, ensure
the module is correctly installed, and restart.
3. Expand your module to see the list of ports.
4. Record the NI-XNET interface name that MAX assigns to each port of the hardware. Use
this name when programming the module.
PXIe-8522/8523 User Manual | © National Instruments | 3
5. For each port, configure the port mode to either Direct or Tap, depending on whether you
want to participate fully in network communication as an endpoint (Direct) or monitor an
existing network connection (Tap). Refer to the Port Modes section for more information.
6. For each port, configure the PHY state to either Master or Slave, depending on the
corresponding state of the PHY that you are connecting to. Refer to the Phy State section
for more information.
Note Two PHYs that are physically connected must be configured to use
opposing PHY states. One PHY must be configured to be the master, and the
other PHY must be configured to be the slave.
7. (PXIe-8523 only) For each port, configure the link speed to either 100 Mb/s or 1000
Mb/s. Refer to the Link Speed section for more information.
Note Two ports that are configured as Tap partners must be configured with
matching link speeds.
8. Self-test the hardware by selecting the item in the configuration tree and clicking Self-
Test in the MAX toolbar.
The MAX self-test performs a basic verification of hardware resources.

Port Modes
The module includes four ports that can be configured as independent network interfaces. The
ports can function in Direct mode or Tap mode. Regardless of mode, traffic on each port can
be monitored. When monitoring is enabled, all traffic that is transmitted or received on that
6| ni.com | PXIe-8522/8523 User Manual
port is captured. Each packet is timestamped by both the local time keeper and the port's
network time keeper. The local time keeper runs off PXI Clk10 if present on the chassis. Each
port has an independent network time keeper, which uses IEEE 802.1AS to synchronize time
with other devices on the network.
Note Port mode cannot be changed while an XNET session is started on the port.
When the port mode is changed, port connectivity is lost while the change is
configured.
Data Path Overview
The following diagram describes each port within the module.

Each port has three data paths: XNET monitor, XNET endpoint, and OS stack. All three data
paths can be used simultaneously depending on port mode. The monitor path reads and
inspects all Ethernet frames that are received or transmitted on the port. The endpoint path
transmits and receives Ethernet frames on the port. The endpoint path is typically used if you
need it to act as an AVB endpoint. The OS stack path transmits and receives data using
standard network sockets via the operating system's network stack. The OS stack is typically
used with applications designed to use traditional TCP- or UDP-based protocols for its
network communication.
PXIe-8522/8523 User Manual | © National Instruments | 7
For Ethernet interfaces, the suffix "/monitor" indicates the use of a monitor path when it is
appended to the interface name. For example, "ENET1" specifies use of the endpoint path, and
"ENET1/ monitor" specifies use of the monitor path. The monitor path is used to read Ethernet
frames that are received or transmitted on each port. When Tap is enabled, data received via
the monitor path by a Tap pair will be identical on each port in the pair.
The IEEE 802.1AS protocol is implemented by the firmware running on the module, and
packet timestamps are taken near the device's physical layer. This helps guarantee a high
degree of synchronization accuracy for each port's network time.
Note The PXIe-8522 and PXIe-8523 modules only support jumbo frames at
1000BASE-T1. Refer to the Link Speed section for more information.
Direct Mode

Note This diagram shows a design with two ports. Each of the device's four ports
can run independently under Direct mode.
Note Although it is not shown in the diagram, you can simultaneously use the
XNET monitor data path on each port while it is in Direct mode. This allows you to
analyze all network traffic that is transmitted and received on the port's endpoint.
In Direct mode, ports are directly connected and function as endpoints; Ethernet frames
received and transmitted on the port have no relationship to any other ports on the device.
Input and output sessions are supported in Direct mode. The module supports up to four ports
using Direct mode.
Tap Mode
In Tap mode, a pair of adjacent ports on the device, called tap partners, are connected to form a
Tap that allows the module to monitor traffic. In Tap mode, physical Port 1 and Port 2 are Tap
PXIe-8522/8523 User Manual | © National Instruments | 9
partners, and Port 3 and Port 4 are Tap partners. A frame received on one Tap partner is
transmitted out of the other Tap partner, which mimics the behavior of an Ethernet cable.
Note For more information about Tap latency, refer to the PXIe-8522
Specifications or PXIe-8523 Specifications.
When an input session is created using an XNET interface for either Tap partner, and the "/
monitor" suffix is used with the XNET interface, the session reads frames going through the
Tap partners. Output sessions are not supported in Tap mode.
Note You only need to select the monitor of one port in the Tap pairing. If both
monitors are selected, you will receive the same data twice.
Setting one port to Tap mode will automatically set the port's Tap partner to Tap mode. The
module supports two Taps (Ports 1/2 and Ports 3/4) using this mode. All four ports can also be
used simultaneously while one pair is in Tap mode and the other ports are in Direct mode. The
following diagram describes one Tap pair on the module.

PHY State
The module PHY's master/slave state can be configured for communication with its peer PHY.
In traditional Ethernet networks, this master/slave state is negotiated automatically at the PHY
level. However, in Automotive Ethernet networks, the master/slave state is commonly
configured statically and is typically determined by the PHY state setting of the connected
DUT. Configure the PHY state of the module's port to the opposite of the connected DUT's
PHY state.
