Receiver Configuration

The register contents for the two receiver configuration words are shown in Table 8-3and Table 8-4.

Bit

Default

Description

Value

 

 

 

 

 

31-0

All 0s

Pause frame MAC Source Address[31:0]. This address is

 

 

used by the MAC to match against the destination address

 

 

of any incoming flow control frames. It is also used by the

 

 

flow control block as the source address (SA) for any

 

 

outbound flow control frames. See Chapter 6, “Using Flow

 

 

Control.”

 

 

The address is ordered so the first byte

 

 

transmitted/received is the lowest positioned byte in the

 

 

register; for example, a MAC address of AA-BB-CC-DD-

 

 

EE-FF would be stored in Address[47:0] as

 

 

0xFFEEDDCCBBAA.

Control Frame Length Check Disable When this bit is set

 

 

to ‘1,’ the core will not mark control frames as ‘bad’ if they

 

 

are greater than the minimum frame length.

0

Length/Type Error Check Disable When this bit is set to

 

 

‘1,’ the core will not perform the length/type field error

 

 

checks as described in “Length/Type Field Error Checks,”

 

 

on page 43. When this bit is set to ‘0,’ the length/type field

 

 

checks will be performed; this is normal operation.

VLAN Enable When this bit is set to ‘1,’ VLAN tagged

 

 

frames will be accepted by the receiver.

 

 

 

28

1

Receiver Enable. If set to ‘1,’ the receiver block will be

 

 

operational. If set to ‘0,’ the block will ignore activity on the

 

 

physical interface RX port.
