Architectural Overview
11.5.12.1 Sharing the MDIO0 Interface
MDIO0, if enabled, can be configured as either “shared” or “not-shared” (a.k.a. 
“dedicated”) through the value of the COM_MDIO bit of the MDC/MDIO Configuration 
(MDICNFG) register, which is an MMIO register for LAN Port 0. Regardless of its 
COM_MDIO setting, MDIO0 is always used by LAN Port 0.
COM_MDIO = 0: Not Shared
COM_MDIO = 1: Shared
See 
.
For LAN Port 1, MDIO1, if enabled, is used unless the COM_MDIO bit for both LAN Port 
0 and LAN Port 1 are “1” indicating “shared.” If both are “1,” MDIO0 is used if it is 
enabled.
For LAN Port 2 and for LAN Port 3, when their COM_MDIO bit indicates “shared,” MDIO0 
is used by the LAN Port. When the bit indicates “not-shared,” no MDIO interface is used 
by the particular LAN Port.
