Overview
This document describes how to bring up the Broadcom BCM953128R8G reference board.
Because there is no CPU in unmanaged mode application, the EEPROM is needed in this reference board to
configure switch BCM53128 when the board powers on. The EEPROM has been preprogrammed before it is
placed into the socket in the board.
