Overview

Classes

IOEthernetController

Abstract superclass for Ethernet controllers.

Constants

extern const OSSymbol * gIOEthernetWakeOnLANFilterGroup;  

Discussion

gIOEthernetWakeOnLANFilterGroup is an OSSymbol object that contains the name of the Ethernet wake-on-LAN filter group defined by kIOEthernetWakeOnLANFilterGroup.

Enumerations

All filters in the wake-on-LAN filter group.

enum { 
    kIOEthernetWakeOnMagicPacket = 0x00000001, 
    kIOEthernetWakeOnPacketAddressMatch = 0x00000002 
};  

Constants

kIOEthernetWakeOnMagicPacket

Reception of a Magic Packet.

kIOEthernetWakeOnPacketAddressMatch

Reception of a packet which passes through any of the address filtering mechanisms based on its destination Ethernet address. This may include unicast, broadcast, or multicast addresses depending on the current state and setting of the corresponding packet filters.

Discussion

Each filter listed will respond to a network event that will trigger a system wake-up.

#defines

#define kIOEthernetCRCSize 4 

The maximum size of an Ethernet packet, including the FCS bytes.

#define kIOEthernetMaxPacketSize 1518
