RE: [ECOS]defining MAC in fconfig of redboot

[Lambrecht Jürgen <J dot Lambrecht at TELEVIC dot com>]

If it doesn't work, you will have to program it yourself.
You have to use the define CYGPKG_DEVS_ETH_ARM_AT91_REDBOOT_HOLDS_ESA in the network driver of your board to call redboot fconfig defines to enable the MAC address (=ESA).
If you use an Atmel AT91 processor with EMAC inside, then this is the driver:
ecos/packages/devs/eth/arm/at91/current/src/if_at91.c
There you find an example.

Success,
Jürgen
