How to use own mac address instead of using ENET_get_mac_address().

I am using mcf52259 and mqx3.5

Thanks in advance,

For example:

_enet_address enet_address = { <Put here your mac address> };

ipcfg_init_device (BSP_DEFAULT_ENET_DEVICE, enet_address);

Yes, I did this and it works too,

Is there any way to check that whatever mac address set by me is set in controller??

Can we change mac address in run time ??

Andrey thanks for your reply.

Thanks in Advance,

Hi Nisha,

>>Is there any way to check that whatever mac address set

You can try ipcfg_get_mac() or ENET_get_address().

>>.Can we change mac address in run time ?

Do release of the ENET device, and after do its initialization with new mac address.

Cheers,

This is the code which i wrote to extract mac address .The mac address replied is always same , although i change the mac address the way u asked me to do in previous post .Ethernet connection is created using the mac address which i give , but while checking the mac address, it doe not match with the value which i gave.

uint_32 rtn;

IPCFG_IP_ADDRESS_DATA ipaddr;

char mac[6];

ipcfg_get_mac(IPCFG_default_enet_device,mac);

printf("%x:%x:%x:%x:%x:%x\n",mac[5],mac[4],mac[3],mac[2],mac[1],mac[0]);
