Header AID Remote Control Word Commands
Stations may be configured either as master stations or
as slave stations. Only one master may exist on a given
HomePNA segment.
The master station may send commands embedded in
the HomePNA header control word to remotely set var-
ious parameters of the remote slave stations. Stations
are identified via the AID as follows:
1. The master station is identified on the HomePNA
2. A slave is identified with an AID of 00h to EFh.
3. AID values of F0h to FEh are reserved for future
Once a command has been transmitted, the master
station will revert to a slave AID, so that subsequent
control words are not interpreted as new commands.
Master mode is entered by writing to the PHY control
register (HPR16) and is exited upon the completion of
the command sequence.
A valid master remote command consists of three
HomePNA frames with an AID of FFh. Since the
HomePNA header is prepended to packets received
from the MAC as well as Any1Home packets. Packets
from the master station may be separated by intervals
during which other (slave) stations may transmit their
frames.
A remote master Control Word command must be rec-
ognized and executed by a HomePNA PHY when it re-
ceives three consecutive valid HomePNA frames with
an AID of FFh.
If HPR16, bit 15 is not set to 0, valid commands are as
follows:
1. SET_POWER: Commands slave stations to set
2. SET_SPEED: Commands slave stations to set their

PHY Control and Management Block (PCM
Block)
Register Administration for 10BASE-T PHY Device
The management interface specified in Clause 22 of
the IEEE 802.3u standard provides for a simple two
wire, serial interface to connect a management entity
and a managed PHY for the purpose of controlling the
PHY and gathering status information. The two lines
are Management Data Input/Output (MDIO) and Man-
agement Data Clock (MDC). A station management
entity which is attached to multiple PHY entities must
have prior knowledge of the appropriate PHY address
for each PHY entity.
Description of the Methodology
The management interface physically transports man-
agement information across the internal and external
MII. The information is encapsulated in a frame format
as specified in Clause 22 of the IEEE 802.3u draft stan-
dard and is shown in Table 15.
