Advanced VLAN features are also supported in KSZ8864RMN, such as “VLAN ingress filtering” and “discard non
PVID” defined in bits [6:5] of the port Register Control 2. These features can be controlled on a port basis.
Rate Limiting Support
The KSZ8864RMN provides a fine resolution hardware rate limiting. The rate step is 64Kbps when the rate limit is
less than 1Mbps rate for 100BT or 10BT. The rate step is 1Mbps when the rate limit is more than 1Mbps rate for
100BT or 10BT (refer to Data Rate Selection Table which follow the end of the Port Register Queue 03
Ingress/Egress Limit Control section). The rate limit is independently on the “receive side” and on the “transmit side”
on a per port basis. For 10BASE-T, a rate setting above 10 Mbps means the rate is not limited. On the receive side,
the data receive rate for each priority at each port can be limited by setting up Ingress Rate Control Registers. On the
transmit side, the data transmit rate for each priority queue at each port can be limited by setting up Egress Rate
Control Registers. The size of each frame has options to include minimum IFG (Inter Frame Gap) or Preamble byte,
in addition to the data field (from packet DA to FCS).
Ingress Rate Limit
For ingress rate limiting, KSZ8864RMN provides options to selectively choose frames from all types, multicast,
broadcast, and flooded unicast frames by bits [32] of the port rate limit control register. The KSZ8864RMN counts
the data rate from those selected type of frames. Packets are dropped at the ingress port when the data rate
exceeds the specified rate limit or when the flow control takes effect without packet dropped. This occurs when the
ingress rate limit flow control is enabled by the port rate limit control register bit 4. The ingress rate limiting supports
the port-based, 802.1p and DiffServ-based priorities, the port-based priority is fixed priority 03 selection by bits [43]
of the port register control 0. The 802.1p and DiffServ-based priority can be mapped to priority 03 by default of the
register 128 and 129. In the ingress rate limit, set register 135 global control 19 bit3 in order for the queue-based rate
limit to be enabled if use two queues or four queues mode, all related ingress ports and egress port should be split
into two or four queues mode by the port registers control 9 and control 0. The four queues mode will use Q0Q3 for
