Abstract
An Ethernet device comprises a plurality of Management Data Input/Output (MDIO) Manageable Device (MMD) registers storing Ethernet register field definitions that operate a management interface to one or more MMD devices. An MDIO controller, communicatively coupled to the plurality of MMD registers can control communication via the management interface to the one or more MMD devices based on a mapping of the set of Ethernet register field definitions to the plurality of MMD registers, and dynamically modify the mapping of the set of Ethernet register field definitions to the plurality of MMD registers.
