I tried to run nc_test_slave program as application and connect to
RedBoot via Telnet from host's cygwin.
The result is below.

$ telnet 172.16.1.200 9000
Trying 172.16.1.200...
telnet: Unable to connect to remote host: Connection refused

Once your application is started, RedBoot is no longer available.

Why are you trying to do this?


I would like to load new application object to target using RedBoot via Telnet from host PC during target's application running. Is it impossible ?

It is not possible. As I said, once your application is running, RedBoot is out of the picture.

I got an impression from Anthony J. Massa's book that if setted two
different IP addresses between RedBoot and application,I could connect
to RedBoot via Telnet during application running. Am I mistaken ?

That's a reference to the ability of RedBoot to provide GDB services via the network. The rest of RedBoot's functionality is no longer available, once your application starts.
