3.5.4. Frame Type Checking
The MAC RX checks the length/type field to determine the frame type:
- Length/type < 0x600—The field represents the payload length of a basic Ethernet frame. The MAC RX continues to check the frame and payload lengths.
- Length/type >= 0x600—The field represents the frame type.
- Length/type = 0x8100—VLAN or stacked VLAN tagged frames (up to a total of two tags with value 0x8100). The MAC RX continues to check the frame and payload lengths.
- Length/type = 0x8808—Control frames. The next two bytes are the Opcode field which indicates the type of control frame. For pause frames (Opcode = 0x0001) and PFC frames (Opcode = 0x0101), the MAC RX proceeds with pause frame processing. By default, the MAC RX drops all control frames. If configured otherwise (FWD_CONTROL bit in the rx_frame_control register = 1), the MAC RX forwards control frames to the client.
- For other field values, the MAC RX forwards the receive frame to the client.
