MAC/IP/UDP
MAC
 Source MAC Address indicates the default and unique Media Access
Control (MAC) address given to the Ethernet port.
 Destination MAC Address: Enter the destination MAC address for the
stream. The default setting is the source MAC address. The destination
MAC Address field is not accessible when the Resolve MAC Address
check box is selected.
 Resolve MAC Address check box, when selected (default), sends a
request to the network to retrieve the MAC address corresponding to
the selected destination IP address. This setting is coupled with the
Resolve MAC Address check box from IP on page 178. This check box
is not available when the Network Layer is set to None (refer to Modify
Frame Structure on page 173).
 OAM Quick Ping button automatically starts the quick Ping utility for
the stream destination MAC address and provides either a successful
or failed result. The quick Ping uses 3 attempts, a delay of 1 second,
and a Timeout of 5 seconds.
 EtherType is set to the following values by default and is configurable
from 0x0000 to 0xFFFF when the Network Layer is set to None:
0x0000 when Network Layer is set to None
0x0800 for IPv4
0x86DD for IPv6
0x8847 for MPLS
0x88B7 when Network Layer is set to None with EtherBERT test.
0x8902 for S-OAM (available with EtherSAM)
Note: Depending on the Layer Mode (available with EtherSAM), some EtherType
require to set the configuration parameters through the Modify Frame
Structure pop-up instead of configuring its value from this field; in this case
a pop-up message is displayed indicating the reason. The following
EtherType are not supported for Mixed layer mode: 0x0001 to 0x05FF and
0x8870.
