Can eight MAC ports be configured with independent mac addresses?
Hi,
Can eight MAC ports be configured with independent mac addresses?
It is possible with Native Linux Driver where each port act as independent MAC only port by default and you can get 8 MAC interfaces each corresponding to each of physical ports, but the ethernet data can't be shared with other cores other than the A72 core (where Linux runs).
Please refer to the SDK Documentation of CPSW Native driver for more details about the supported features.
Please refer to the FAQ [How to move to Native Linux Driver] for more details.
In case of EthFW (Ethernet data can be shared with other cores as server and client based architecture) based solution, we have limitations related to the resources like MAC Address, Tx channels and Rx flows.
Please refer to EthFW User Guide for more details.
Best Regards,
Sudheer
