The last two bytes, MAC[15:0], are calculated from the serial number stored in the Cavium
EEPROM. This corresponds to the following formula: n –1000, where n is the unique serial
number assigned to each board. So if an ATCA-9305 serial number is 1032, the calculated value
is 32 (20
16
), and the default Ethernet port addresses are:
Cavium 1 SPI 1 MAC address is: 0x00 0x80 0xF9 0x99 0x00 0x20
Cavium 1 SPI 2 MAC address is: 0x00 0x80 0xF9 0x9A 0x00 0x20
Cavium 2 SPI 1 MAC address is: 0x00 0x80 0xF9 0x9B 0x00 0x20
Cavium 2 SPI 2 MAC address is: 0x00 0x80 0xF9 0x9C 0x00 0x20

. During the power-up sequence, the monitor
configures the board according to the environment variables (see
). If the configuration indicates that autoboot is enabled, the monitor
