Forum Post: Srio utility of local device IDs

$

Hello everyone ,


I'm testing SRIO on C6678, the plateforme i'm using contains two Dsps (C6678)
connected to each other using a switch.

To test the 16 local devices IDs that are implemented in this version of rapidio
I configured the TLM Port BRR's "Control Registers" and "Pattern match registers"
(4 ports x 4 BRRs), then i tested the the local device Ids by sending different transactions
with different IDs.

but My question is : I didn't really understand the Utility of the use of Local devices Ids ?
if someone can give me a concrete example ??
And what is the advantage of using 16 devices instead the version 1.3 of srio that use 1 local
device ?
Because i think if we just need to send to many Ids we can just use Multicast ?!!!

if someone can answer my questions to clarify this aspect I would be very grateful.

thank you ,waitting for your answer!

Regards ,
Asma
