Figure 7-1:Normal Frame Reception across the Legacy Traffic Interface

Figure 7-1illustrates the timing of a normal inbound error free frame transfer that has been accepted by the “Legacy MAC Header Filters” The legacy client must be prepared to accept data at any time; there is no buffering within the core to allow for latency in the receive client. After frame reception begins, data is transferred on consecutive clock enabled cycles to the receive client until the frame is complete. The core asserts the legacy_rx_frame_good signal to indicate that the frame was intended for the legacy traffic client and was successfully received without error.
