Introduction
CPSW operates in two modes
Switch Mode - packet forwarding is enabled and packets are forwarded to Host + Other MAC ports. This is the default configuration for CPSW.
MAC mode - packets are only given to the Host port and are not forwarded to other MAC Ports.
CPSW DUAL MAC Mode
In this mode, both the MAC ports of AM275X are configured to be in MAC mode.
This mode requires two Network interfaces to operate.
It is recommended to use two separate subnets for working with DUAL MAC.
A single implementation of network interface and shared pool is used for both the Netifs.
Dual MAC feature is illustrated by the below image:
