Network Configuration
DRIVE OS 6.0 supports two network configurations named Base and Safety. Base configuration is applicable to standard PCD configuration i.e., AV+L Standard and AV+Q Standard, while Safety is applicable for AV+Q prod, Prod_debug, and prod_debug_extra. These switch configurations are controlled by the AURIX MCU firmware via AURIX command line.
The configuration selection is enabled via AURIX MCU AUTOSAR firmware commands. Commands details:
getnetworkconfig : Get the current network config info
setnetworkconfig <config value>: Sets network config for next MCU boot
Where the <config value> parameter is as below:
| Configuration | Value | Orin PCT (applicable) | Max MTU supported (MGBE2-OAK) | PTP support in OAK Switch | Switch Over the air update support |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| NW_CFG_BASE | 0 | AV+L & AV+Q standard | Up to 16Kbytes | Yes (Refer PTP section) | Yes |
| NW_CFG_BASE_SAFETY | 1 | AV+Q Safety | 1500 bytes | Bypass (Switch CPU disable) | No |
The major difference use cases between NW_CFG_BASE and NW_CFG_BASE_SAFETY are:
- Switch CPU & Firmware disabled : In safety platform configurations, Marvell switch CPU (QM) and firmware (ASIL NA) are disabled to achieve DRIVE OS time sync safety goals.
- Max MTU size: In safety platform configurations, The max MTU size in MGBE2 and OAK switch is reduced to ~1500. To minimize the PTP bypass latency time in safety.
- OTA support: In safety, Marvell switch CPU is disabled. Therefore, there is no OTA support for Marvell switches.
P3710 Networking Port Configuration
