Indigo backplane EEPROM

RE: Indigo backplane EEPROM
So you know how you're looking for something, and you *know* you had it, because you can see it in your mind, and after a while of not being able to find it you wonder whether your memory is just screwing with you and maybe it never existed at all or you're just confusing it with something else?

Well, this is that. I found my notes on setting the Indy address using "fill", but I'm *sure* I was doing it with the Indigo, because I didn't have to (recently) mess with the Indy's address - I think - but I sure as hell can't find anything that tells me which addresses to fill in the Indigo.

Anyway, to cut to the chase, it appears you can set the MAC address on an R3K Indigo simply by using the "eaddr" command:

eaddr 08:00:69:xx:yy:zz

where xx:yy:zz are the three octets of your choice. eaddr without the argument just tells you what it's set to.

Arguing with an engineer is like wrestling with a pig.
You're going to get dirty. You're going to lose. And the pig likes it.

Just about everything from Iris 1000 to Challenge L Rack and a few beyond.
