Modes of Operation

17.2.2.2 10 Mpbs 7-Wire Interface Operation

The FEC supports a 7-wire interface as used by many 10 Mbps ethernet transceivers. The RCR[MII_MODE] bit controls this functionality. If this bit is deasserted, the MII mode is disabled and the 10 Mbps, 7-wire mode is enabled.

17.2.3 Address Recognition Options

The address options supported are promiscuous, broadcast reject, individual address (hash or exact match), and multicast hash match. Address recognition options are discussed in detail in Section 17.4.8, “Ethernet Address Recognition”.

17.2.4 Internal Loopback

Internal loopback mode is selected via RCR[LOOP]. Loopback mode is discussed in detail in Section 17.4.13, “Internal and External Loopback”.
