KSZ8895MQ/RQ/FMQ
The KSZ8895MQ/RQ/FMQ provides the option to insert or remove the priority tagged frame's header at each
individual egress port. This header, consisting of the 2 bytes VLAN Protocol ID (VPID) and the 2-byte Tag Control
Information field (TCI), is also referred to as the IEEE 802.1Q VLAN tag.
Tag Insertion is enabled by bit [2] of the port registers control 0 and the port register control 8 to select which source
port (ingress port) PVID can be inserted on the egress port for ports 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5, respectively. At the egress port,
untagged packets are tagged with the ingress port’s default tag. The default tags are programmed in the port
registers control 3 and control 4 for ports 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5, respectively. The KSZ8895MQ/RQ/FMQ will not add tags
to already tagged packets.
Tag Removal is enabled by bit [1] of the port registers control 0 for ports 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5, respectively. At the egress
port, tagged packets will have their 802.1Q VLAN Tags removed. The KSZ8895MQ/RQ/FMQ will not modify
untagged packets.
The CRC is recalculated for both tag insertion and tag removal.
802.1p Priority Field Re-mapping is a QoS feature that allows the KSZ8895MQ/RQ/FMQ to set the “User Priority
Ceiling” at any ingress port by the port register control 2 bit 7. If the ingress packet’s priority field has a higher priority
value than the default tag’s priority field of the ingress port, the packet’s priority field is replaced with the default tag’s
priority field.
DiffServ-Based Priority
DiffServ-based priority uses the ToS registers (registers 144 to 159) in the Advanced Control Registers section. The
ToS priority control registers implement a fully decoded, 128-bit Differentiated Services Code Point (DSCP) register
to determine packet priority from the 6-bit ToS field in the IP header. When the most significant six bits of the ToS
field are fully decoded, the resultant of the 64 possibilities of DSCP decoded is compared with the corresponding bits
in the DSCP register to determine priority.
Spanning Tree Support
Port 5 is the designated port for spanning tree support.
The other ports (Port 1 – Port 4) can be configured in one of the five spanning tree states via “transmit enable,”
“receive enable,” and “learning disable” register settings in Registers 18, 34, 50, and 66 for Ports 1, 2, 3, and 4,
respectively. The following description shows the port setting and software actions taken for each of the five
spanning tree states.
Disable state: the port should not forward or receive any packets. Learning is disabled.
Port setting: "transmit enable = 0, receive enable = 0, learning disable = 1."
Software action: the processor should not send any packets to the port. The switch may still send specific packets to
the processor (packets that match some entries in the static table with “overriding bit” set) and the processor should
discard those packets. Note: processor is connected to Port 5 via MII interface. Address learning is disabled on the
port in this state.
Blocking state: only packets to the processor are forwarded. Learning is disabled.
Port setting: "transmit enable = 0, receive enable = 0, learning disable = 1"
Software action: the processor should not send any packets to the port(s) in this state. The processor should
program the “Static MAC table” with the entries that it needs to receive (e.g., BPDU packets). The “overriding” bit
should also be set so that the switch will forward those specific packets to the processor. Address learning is
disabled on the port in this state.
Listening state: only packets to and from the processor are forwarded. Learning is disabled.
Port setting: "transmit enable = 0, receive enable = 0, learning disable = 1.
"Software action: The processor should program the static MAC table with the entries that it needs to receive (e.g.
BPDU packets). The “overriding” bit should be set so that the switch will forward those specific packets to the
processor. The processor may send packets to the port(s) in this state, see “Tail Tagging Mode” section for details.
Address learning is disabled on the port in this state.
Learning state: only packets to and from the processor are forwarded. Learning is enabled.
Port setting: “transmit enable = 0, receive enable = 0, learning disable = 0.”
Software action: The processor should program the static MAC table with the entries that it needs to receive (e.g.,
