Chapter 12: System Integration

Using the Xilinx AXI Ethernet MAC

The Ethernet AVB Endpoint will be enabled in the AXI_Ethernet LogiCORE by setting the
parameter C_AVB=1 in EDK version 12.3 or later.

If you have generated the AXI_Ethernet LogiCORE (with the parameter C_AVB set to “1”),
please refer to

AR 37638

for instructions on how to configure the hardware, set up the AVB

PTP drivers, and then use the AVB feature in a processor-based system.

AXI_Ethernet Configuration

To ensure that AVB Audio/Video frames can be sent/received, the AXI Ethernet MAC
should be configured via software initialization such that:

Jumbo frames are disabled.

VLAN Frame Transmission/Reception is enabled (Note: Extended VLAN
functionality is not supported; The VLAN frame enable bit should be set in the
TEMAC Transmit/Receive Configuration Words.)

The MAC is set to operate in promiscuous mode (the Ethernet MAC address filter is
disabled).

For further information on how to access these registers, please refer directly to the

LogiCORE IP AXI Ethernet (v1.00a) Product Specification
