Determine src / dst MAC address

Hi all, I've been working with an Intel MAX10 FPGA and want to eventually use the MAX10 to receive data through Ethernet and send it somewhere else. Currently I am successfully running the MAX10 TSE...

Hi,

As Intel FPGA only supply IP solution till Ethernet MAC (data link layer) only, we don't really emphases on full Ethernet application solution till the application layer.

  • It's really up to customer to implement their own Ethernet solution design beyond the data link layer.

The TSE example design is meant to demo and evaluate the functionality of Ethernet MAC typically via on board cable or module loopback.

  • Therefore, the MAC address is not important in example design and it's just a simply hard code number

I hope I clear your doubt.

Thanks.

Regards,

dlim

    Thanks for getting back to me dlim,

    The information is handy, although I'm not sure where to proceed with my approach. Do you know of any examples or research that could point me in the right direction so I'm not "reinventing the wheel"? I'd appreciate any related info.

    Thanks :)
