3.2.4 On-Board LAN
The development board supports 10/100/1000 Mbps Ethernet through the on-board
Intel 82579LM Gigabit Ethernet PHY (EU7M1). The LAN PHY has PCIe and SMBus
connections to the PCH. It is routed to Dock via the Docking Switch. Data transfer
occurs over PCIe lanes. Communication between the LAN controller and the LAN
Connected Device is handled via the SMBus whenever the system is in a low-power
state (Sx).
