I210-IS Configuration iNVM SFP with .txt Image

[KFrie2]

Hello,

is it possible to use the I210-IS Ethernet-Controller without an additional Flash to get the communication with an external sfp module started?

Is there something special to configure in the .txt file, which will be loaded through the eeupdate Program, to configure the i210-IS.

The communication is made between the i210-IS and an 1.25Gbps Multimode SFP Transceiver (From: TC TEK) "FL SFP SX".

Communication wiring is made between i210-IS and FL SFP SX module with following pins of the I210-IS:

SET_P, SET_N, SER_P, SER_N, SFP_I2C_DATA, SFP_I2C_CLK, SRDS_SIG_DET.

I downloaded the iNVM images for the I210, but couldn't find a proper .txt image for an I210-IS design with an SFP module of usage.
