Enum embassy_net_driver::HardwareAddress

#[non_exhaustive]
pub enum HardwareAddress {
    Ethernet([u8; 6]),
    Ieee802154([u8; 8]),
    Ip,
}

Representation of an hardware address, such as an Ethernet address or an IEEE802.15.4 address.

Variants (Non-exhaustive)

Non-exhaustive enums could have additional variants added in future. Therefore, when matching against variants of non-exhaustive enums, an extra wildcard arm must be added to account for any future variants.

Ethernet([u8; 6])

Ethernet medium, with a A six-octet Ethernet address.

Devices of this type send and receive Ethernet frames, and interfaces using it must do neighbor discovery via ARP or NDISC.

Examples of devices of this type are Ethernet, WiFi (802.11), Linux tap, and VPNs in tap (layer 2) mode.

Ieee802154([u8; 8])

6LoWPAN over IEEE802.15.4, with an eight-octet address.

Ip

Indicates that a Driver is IP-native, and has no hardware address.

Devices of this type send and receive IP frames, without an Ethernet header. MAC addresses are not used, and no neighbor discovery (ARP, NDISC) is done.

Examples of devices of this type are the Linux tun, PPP interfaces, VPNs in tun (layer 3) mode.

Trait Implementations

impl Clone for HardwareAddress

fn clone(&self) -> HardwareAddress

Returns a copy of the value.

fn clone_from(&mut self, source: &Self)

Performs copy-assignment from source.

impl Debug for HardwareAddress

fn fmt(&self, f: &mut Formatter<'_>) -> Result

Formats the value using the given formatter.

impl Format for HardwareAddress

where [u8; 6]: Format, [u8; 8]: Format,

fn format(&self, f: Formatter<'_>)

Writes the defmt representation of self to fmt.

impl PartialEq for HardwareAddress

fn eq(&self, other: &HardwareAddress) -> bool

Tests for self and other values to be equal, and is used by ==.

fn ne(&self, other: &Rhs) -> bool

Tests for !=. The default implementation is almost always sufficient, and should not be overridden without very good reason.
