Take any example that includes ethernet and build simple socket server from examples in Eclipse

And what should i run on PC a sniffer or a server application ? 

My PC has vista on it , so when nios wants to establish a comm link , how will it get a ip address , vista will assign to it or do i have write some application for that ?

Assign a static address to the application and recompile the example project. Since the example is called "Simple Socket SERVER", so You need a client on PC. You may also run a sniffer to check packets.
