70 Packet Reception (Continued)

REMOVING PACKETS FROM THE RING

Packets are removed from the ring using the Remote DMA

or an external device When using the Remote DMA the

Send Packet command can be used This programs the Re-

mote DMA to automatically remove the received packet

pointed to by the Boundary Pointer At the end of the trans-

fer the ST-NIC moves the Boundary Pointer freeing addi-

tional buffers for reception The Boundary Pointer can also

be moved manually by programming the Boundary Register

The ST-NIC knows the difference between an empty buffer

ring and a full buffer ring This situation is seen when the

Boundary Pointer (BNDRY) and the Current Page Pointer

(CURR) point to the same address If BNDRY caught up

with CURR the buffer is empty and if CURR caught up with

BNDRY the buffer is full

STORAGE FORMAT FOR RECEIVED PACKETS

ceived packets are placed into memory by the local DMA

channel These modes are selected in the Data Configura-

tion Register
