Abstract
Ethernet physical sublayer (PHY) devices each provide PHY register data. One or more of the Ethernet PHY devices are connected to each of one or more management data input/output (MDIO)/management data clock (MDC) interfaces to which a number of MDIO/MDC controllers are connected. Each MDIO/MDC controller polls a corresponding MDIO/MDC interface to receive the PHY register data from the one or more Ethernet PHY devices connected thereto. The MDIO/MDC controllers store portions of the PHY register data received from the Ethernet PHY devices to a memory to which an interface is connected. A processor connected to the interface accesses the portions of the PHY register data stored to the memory. The processor can retrieve the portions of the PHY register data over the interface more quickly than the MDIO/MDC controllers can retrieve the PHY register data over the MDIO/MDC interfaces.
