Good day everyone!

I'm currently working on a project of a testing module that requires three Ethernet Ports One for network connection Two for external harware (one of which is a device being tested)ports:

  • one for network connection
  • two for external hardware (one of which is a device being tested)

The testing module uses an AM3352 SOMSoM as a main controller and supports two MII interfaces, so i. So I had to use W5500 (SPI interface) as a third Ethernet module instead of LAN8710A-EZC.

Question: the W5500 does not have PHYAD pins, and I am not sure if thatsthat's OK for my project... Is there a way to set physical address for this device, and does it need that at all? Or do iI have to use an external PHY device to connect to the W5500?
