TMDS243EVM: Promiscuous mode for CPSW

Mark VanDyke

Part Number: TMDS243EVM

I would like to use the CPSW port to receive all packets, regardless of their destination MAC address. I am able to do this on the ICSSG ports by enabling promiscuous mode. Is there a way to enable promiscuous mode on the CPSW peripheral?

Hi Mark,

In CPSW, this is available in MAC only mode settings. We have "Mac Only Copy All Frames" (MACONLY_CAF) feature in ALE (look up engine) . When this bit is set a Mac Only port will transfer all received good frames to the host. You can set this via sys-cfg in the existing mcu-sdk examples. In sys-cfg, CPSW -> ALE Config -> ALE Port Config -> MAC-only mode config.
