Other Parts Discussed in Thread: TDA4VH
Hi TI Experts,
Customer is working on TDA4VH SDK9.0.
They have finished implementing the CPSW9G with native Linux, having 1 * QSGMII + 2 * SGMII multilink configurations. (Test OK)
Now they are implementing their network designs of the following two operation modes.
Operation Mode 1 – one interface with four ports:
- An individual MAC address must be assigned to each of these Ethernet ports.
- MAC broadcasts must be forwarded to all Ethernet ports.
- MAC singlecasts must be forwarded to the appropriate Ethernet port.
- Each Ethernet port must identify itself via LLDP to its neighbor.
- A fifth MAC address represents the interface.
Operation Mode 2 – two interfaces, each of them with two ports:
- An individual MAC address must be assigned to each of these Ethernet ports.
- MAC broadcasts must be forwarded to exactly one other Ethernet port (the one, which belongs to the same interface).
- MAC singlecasts must be forwarded to the appropriate Ethernet port, if – and only if – it belongs to the same interface.
- Each Ethernet port must identify itself via LLDP to its neighbor.
- A fifth and a sixth MAC address represent the two interfaces.
When they are testing the LLDP feature, they have meet the following problem.
Customer has configured eth1 and eth2 of cpsw9g to switch port, then PC1 can ping to PC2, but Linux on A72 cannot ping to PC1 or PC2.
Because of that, no LLDP neighbors can be found on PC1, PC2 or Jacinto board.
May I know what would be the causes of having this problem?
Any suggestions would appreciate, thanks a lot,
Kevin
