It is the -responsibility of the end-user to insure that it is set properly. -This file describes the standard procedure recommended by DY-4 -technical support for setting this address. This procedure is -similar to that followed by VxWorks as documented in DY-4 -Document Number #807885. - -The hardware Ethernet address and OS configuration information -must be stored in the SEEPROM non-volatile memory of the -SVME/DMV-176/177. The Foundation Firmware (FFW) reserves the -first 256 bytes of the SEEPROM for its own use and the remaining -remaining 256 bytes are available for OS specific information. - -Three bytes in the Serial EEPROM are used for the lowest three bytes -of the hardware Ethernet address These should be set to the serial -number of your SVME/DMV-176/177 card to ensure a unique Ethernet -address on your network. The three high bytes are hard coded in the -BSP and represent the vendor-specific Ethernet codes (0x00, 0x80, 0x7F). -Together these six bytes form the target's Ethernet address. - -Address is of the form ... - -NOTE: The serial number is found on the packaging (box) that the -board came in OR it is also located on the solder side of the board and -looks something like SERNO:XXXXXX. It can not be determined dynamically -by software. - -Prior to using the Ethernet controller on the SVME/DMV-176/177 for the -first time, the Ethernet address bytes must be programmed into the -Serial EEPROM on the target card. The 'emm' (EEPROM Memory Modification) -command in the General Purpose Monitor (GPM) can be used to do this. - -In this example we will assume that the serial number of the target card -is 123456. - - - |
