Questions about the Local MAC and Host MAC of the QCA700x #180

Open IamTomChang opened 4 months ago

We know that when we use AVitar software to burn firmware to QCA7000, the MAC configuration option of QCA7000 will appear, I would like to ask what is the function of this MAC? When communicating HLC with the Host MCU, must the MAC address in the Ethernet frame be the same as the MAC address when the firmware was burned? We have tested that the Host MCU uses other MAC addresses, and the communication with other modules can also be normal. Is it unclear what the specific role of the MAC of the QCA7000 is?
