Bit 2:

RX_DES_INH is set to inhibit the descrambling (X43 +1) of the RX Payload Data sent from the

 

SPE/VC Extractor in the SONET/SDH portion. Removal of the GFP core header DC balancing is

 

still performed.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Bit 1: RX_FCS_INH is set to inhibit the checking of the LAPS/GFP 32-bit FCS field. In GFP mode, the optional FCS is assumed to be present but the checking of this field is inhibited.

Bit 0: RX_FCS_REM_INH is set to inhibit the 32-bit FCS field removal. When set, the FCS field is not removed and so is passed on to the RX FIFO. In GFP mode, this bit should be set when the optional FCS field is not appended to the end of the frame.

Bits 7-0: RX_FIFO_THRESHOLD[7:0] is the LSB of the RX-FIFO Transmit Threshold which is used by the INFO FIELD RX FIFO Controller to determine when it starts to read the data from the RX FIFO. For frames whose size is greater than the programmed RX_FIFO_THRESHOLD, the

INFO FIELD RX FIFO Controller begins to read data out of the RX FIFO when the number of bytes of the portion of the receiving frame that has been stored into the RX FIFO is equal to or greater than the programmed RX_FIFO_THRESHOLD. The default value is 420 bytes (0x01A4).

In LAPS mode, for jumbo frame support, increase this value to 1150 (0x47E). In GFP mode, set this value to 20 (0x14).
