i210

[MStre5]

we programmed the i210 iNVM with the "i210_Invm_SerdDesKX_NoAPM_v0.6.txt"

Therfore we got the ID 157C we expected the ID 1536. What is the difference?

We don't find any tool to program the MAC-adress.

Can you help us?

Hello, M.Str :

Thank you for contacting Intel Embedded Community.

In order to help you with device ID consultation, please review the answer to the question 2.13 on page 7 of the https://www.intel.com/content/dam/www/public/us/en/documents/faqs/ethernet-controller-i210-i211-faq.pdf Intel(R) Ethernet Controller I210/I211 Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs) document # 335346.

On the other hand, the EEupdate and LANConf may help you to program MAC addresses. These tools are included in the https://cdrd.intel.com/v1/dl/getcontent/348742 Intel(R) Network Connections Tools document # 348742.

These tools can be downloaded when you are logged in to your Embedded Design Center (EDC) privileged account.

We hope that this information may help you.

Best regards,

Hello,

with the tool "lanconf64.efi", i can program the i210-iNVM.

This is a GUI-tool.

Now i have the problem to program the iNVM in our production with a EFi-CommandLine-Tool.

Can you tell me, what tool I should use to program the iNVM?

I think eeupdate is not able to program the iNVM

Mit freundlichen Grüßen

Hello,

now we have only the iNVM, the external Flash is not present.

we programed the file "I210_Invm_SerDesKX_NoAPM_v0.6.txt" and the MAC-Adress with "lanconf64e.efi" to the i210.

now the deviceID is 8086-157C

with linux "lspci" we see "Ethernet Controller: Intel Corporation I210 Gigabit Backplane Connection (rev 3)"

with the tool "diags64e.efi", we can see the MAC-adress. When we use the same tool second, the MAC-adress is "00 00 00 00 00 00"

What is wrong?

Hello,

we found the problem that we can only read the MAC-adress when we first start the diagnostic programm.

It was configured, that the iNVM data in not updated at SW-reset.

After that change the controller works.

[MStre5]

Hello Carlos,

we can progrm the iNVM with the tool eeupdate. This is ok.

Is it only possible to program the MAC in the iNVM with eeupdate /MAC=?

Or how can we put many MAC-adresses in a file and program the MAC-adress with this file?

Best regard Martin
