0x103
RX_FILTER_
CTRL
[17:8] Packet length limit in 16-byte words, for the
40GbE IP core. The IP core discards packets
based on this length limit: frames of size
within 20 bytes over the length limit may or
may not be dropped, but oversized frames
that are 20 or more bytes over the length
limit are always dropped.
The IP core records packets in the too long
counter if they have length greater than the
length specified in this register field.
0x280
RW
[15:8] Packet length limit in 40-byte words, for the
100GbE IP core. The IP core discards packets
based on this length limit: frames of size
within 44 bytes over the length limit may or
may not be dropped, but oversized frames
that are 44 or more bytes over the length
limit are always dropped.
The IP core records packets in the too long
counter if they have length greater than the
length specified in this register field.
0xf0
RW
[5]
When set to 1, non-pause control frames are
removed; this filtering is only enabled when
RX_FILTER_CTRL
bit [0] is set to 0.
1
RW
[4]
When set to 1, pause frames are removed;
this filtering is only enabled when
RX_
FILTER_CTRL
bit [0] is set to 0.
1
RW
[3]
When set to 1, runt frames are removed
regardless of the filtering enable bit 0x103[0].
The IP core identifies frames of length eight
bytes or less as decoding errors rather than as
runt frames.
1b’1
RW
[2]
When set to 1, the filter discard packets
which do not target a matching destination
address.
1b’0
RW
[1]
When set to 1, the filter discards packets with
FCS errors.
1b’1
RW
[0]
When set to 0 enables filtering. When set to
1, accepts all traffic (promiscuous mode).
However, when bit [3] is set, runts are
removed regardless of the value of bit [0].
