Configure this register before you enable
the MAC IP core for operations.
RW
0x3
Bit 0—
EN_ALLUCAST
0: Filters RX unicast frames using the
primary MAC address. The MAC IP core
drops unicast frames with a destination
address other than the primary MAC
address.
1: Accepts all RX unicast frames.
Setting this bit and the
EN_ALLMCAST
to 1
puts the MAC IP core in the promiscuous
mode.
Bit 1—
EN_ALLMCAST
0: Drops all RX multicast frames.
1: Accepts all RX multicast frames.
Setting this bit and the
EN_ALLUCAST
bit to 1
is equivalent to setting the MAC IP core to
the promiscuous mode.
Bit 2—reserved.
Bit 3—
FWD_CONTROL
. When you turn on the
Priority-based Flow Control parameter,
this bit affects all control frames except the
IEEE 802.3 pause frames and priority-based
control frames. When the Priority-based
Flow Control parameter is not enabled, this
bit affects all control frames except the IEEE
802.3 pause frames.
0: Drops the control frames.
1: Forwards the control frames to the client.
Bit 4—
FWD_PAUSE
0: Drops pause frames.
1: Forwards pause frames to the client.
Bit 5—
IGNORE_PAUSE
0: Processes pause frames.
1: Ignores pause frames.
Bits 15:6—reserved.
