I need a bit of advice regarding my workstation configuration. Currently I am using an i7-q820 based laptop with 8g ram, with vivado, to work with an arty z7-20 and artix video boards. In the future, maybe I will purchase also a ZCU102. Now I am at beginning with everything, but designs already takes a lot of time to synthesize on my laptop. I am planning to purchase a more powerful PC, but desktop, not laptop, and to install there vivado and everything needed to work. Due to various reasons, it is much easier for me to install that desktop pc into a part of the house which is mostly a storage room, and to connect it to the internal ethernet network, without monitor/keyboard. For flexibility reasons, I would like to continue using laptop as a remote desktop station to control the desktop pc (with teamviewer etc.). However, there is a problem. I need the fpga boards near me and those has to be connected to usb-jtag with the desktop pc, not with the laptop, which is just the remote desktop station. Any idea how to do that? Is there any usb-to-usb bridge over ethernet? Thank you.
