2 Ethernet ports on a MPC860T

Hi,

I think it should work. In fec.c there is some code that "generates" an
extra MAC address when CONFIG_SCC_ENET is defined....

Hi all!

We have to redesign our customer board next year, and there is a requirement
to use two ethernet ports. At the moment we use of course the FEC with
10/100 MBit. So we want to add a SCC (SCC3 fits for us ...) for a second
ethernet. Is that configuration supported by linux, or easy to adapt? (to
switch from another SCC to SCC3 or similar).

What kind of external devices are necessary? And how do you store the MAC
Address? (We do it at the moment via a one wire chip, they garant for the
right MAC Address).

Thanks in advance

Gerhard
