Auto-negotiation

Not supported.

IEEE 1588v2
  • Provides the required latency to the MAC if the MAC enables the IEEE 1588v2 feature.
  • Supported in 1G/2.5G and 10M/100M/1G/2.5G/5G/10G (USXGMII) configuration.
Note: For the 10M/100M/1G/2.5G/5G/10G (USXGMII) configuration, the provided latency is applicable only for 100M, 1G, 2.5G, 5G, and 10G modes.
Sync-E

Not supported.
