ring-cascade topology (continued)

D Frames received on a ring port must have an out-of-band pretag in the clock cycle before Mxx_RXDV is

asserted. The contents of the pretag are examined, and based on the results, are either forwarded normally,

or immediately discarded within the MAC. If discarded, the frame does not affect any of the statistics or

address-lookup database. Frames are forwarded normally, unless:

–

The pretag is 0.

–

The two IDs within the pretag are not the same.

–

The ID within the received pretag is the same as ringid. This identifies a frame that originated at this

device, and that has passed completely around the ring.

The pretag format is shown in Figure 8.

FLOW

NOTE: When a port is configured for the ring

topology, IEEE Std 802.3x flow control

should be disabled. Hardware-based

flow control is supported using the

FLOW

and

Mxx_COL

terminals;

however, this must be enabled by

setting the flow bit in SysControl.
