AX88796 L

3-in-1 Local Bus Fast Ethernet Controller

If address Y is found to hash to the value 32 (20H), then FB32 in MAR2 should be initialized to ``1''. This will cause the

AX88796 to accept any multicast packet with the address Y.

Although the hashing algorithm does not guarantee perfect filtering of multicast address, it will perfectly filter up to 64

logical address filteres if these addresses are chosen to map into unique locations in the multicast filter.

Note: The first bit of received packet sequence is 1’s stands by Multicast Address.

4.1.3 Broadcast Address Match Filter

The Broadcast check logic compares the Destination Address Field (first 6 bytes of the received packet) to all 1’s, that is

the values are “FF FF FF FF FF FF FF” in Hex format. If any bit of the six bytes does not equal to 1’s, the Protocol Control

Logic rejects the packet.

4.1.4 Aggregate Address Filter with Receive Configuration Setup

The final address filter decision depands on the destination address types, identified by the above 3 address

match filters, and the setup of parameters of Receive Configuration Register.

Definitions of address match filter result are as following:
