70 Packet Reception (Continued)

REMOVING PACKETS FROM THE RING

Packets are removed from the ring using the Remote DMA

or an external device When using the Remote DMA the

Send Packet command can be used This programs the Re-

mote DMA to automatically remove the received packet

pointed to by the Boundary Pointer At the end of the trans-

fer the SNIC moves the Boundary Pointer freeing addition-

al buffers for reception The Boundary Pointer can also be

moved manually by programming the Boundary Register

STORAGE FORMAT FOR RECEIVED PACKETS

ceived packets are placed into memory by the local DMA

channel These modes are selected in the Data Configura-

tion Register
