19.6.7 Ethernet MAC Individual Address 1 (MACIA1) Register, offset 0x018
The Ethernet MAC Individual Address 1 (MACIA1) register enables software to program the last two bytes
of the hardware MAC address of the Network Interface Card (NIC). The first four bytes are in MACIA0.
The 6-byte IAR is compared against the incoming Destination Address fields to determine whether the
frame should be received.
