Intel^® 82598EB 10 GbE Controller - Sample Configurations
MANC2H Register 00000002:
Bit 2 [1]– Enable MDEF[1] traffic to go to Host as well
This allows ARP requests to be passed to both manageability and to the host. Specified separate MDEF
filter for ARP requests. If ARP requests had been added to MDEF[0] and then MDEF[0] specified in
Management to Host configuration then not only would ARP requests be sent to the MC and host, RMCP
traffic (ports 26Fh and 298h) would have also been sent to both places.
The MANC2H Filter is configured in this step and enabled in step 3.
Step 7: Enable Filtering
Receive Enable [CD, AABBCCDDEE, 01020304, 00, 00, 00]
Using the advanced version Receive Enable command, the first parameter:
Receive Enable Control CDh:
Bit 0 [1] – Enable Receiving of packets
Bit 2 [1] – Enable status reporting (such as link lost)
Bit 3 [1] – Enable Automatic ARP Responses
Bit 5:4 [00]– Notification method = SMB Alert
Bit 6 [1] - Reserved, must be set to 1
Bit 7 [1]– Use Dedicated MAC
Second parameter is the MAC address (AABBCCDDEE).
Third Parameter is the IP address(01020304).
The last three parameters are zero when the notification method is SMB Alert.
