TL-WR1043: switch

Hi,

What's the CPU facing port in this configuration?

>From what I understand, CPU facing port(s) are always the same though,
right? Since the switch PHY generally has one or two dedicated ports
marked for the purpose. I just wonder how you're configuring both the
arge0 side of things and the switch PHY side of things.

Does the arge0 "phy" map to a specific switch port phy, for general
configuration and status? Or is it totally separate here (requiring
configuration of rtl8366rb0portX ?)

Thanks,


Adrian
