Tool/software:

question:I want to receive multicast data with MAC address 01:00:5e: 7f:03:01,but Kernel A72 is unable to receive multicast data;

                 SDK version is ti-processor-sdk-rtos-08_05_00

functional requirement:The PC transmits multicast data to A72 through a 9-port switch;

Current operation mode:

               1、ALE adds multicast,Forward multicast data to the host port through port3;

                  

              2、R5f0-0 adds multicast address in gEthApp_stharedMcastAddrTable

            

               

  • Hi,

    In order to receive the Multicast MAC address to Linux Virtual client, you need to register the Multicast MAC address with ETHFE server from client.

    Linux support IP command to add Multicast MAC to the network interface, using that you can register Multicast MAC with virtual network interface which registers the same with ETHFW sever.

    # ip maddr add 01:00:5e:7f:03:01 dev <interface>
    Adding multicast address to interface mentioned above.

    Best Regards,
    Sudheer
