SCC Ethernet Address Recognition
25.10 SCC Ethernet Address Recognition
The Ethernet controller can filter received frames based on different addressing
types—physical (individual), group (multicast), broadcast (all-ones group address), and
promiscuous. The difference between an individual address and a group address is
determined by the I/G bit in the destination address field. A flowchart for address
recognition on received frames is shown in Figure 25-4.
In the physical type of address recognition, the Ethernet controller compares the destination
address field of the received frame with the user-programmed physical address in
PADDR1. Address recognition can be performed on multiple individual addresses using
the IADDR1–4 hash table.
