must be configured as Slave, DIP Switch 1 must be OFF [down], and vice versa

setting is dependent on the speed of the DUT. If it
is a 100BASE-T1 connection DIP Switch 2 must be OFF [down] and vice versa
DIP Switch 3:
Legacy/IEEE mode
setting: If the PHY of the DUT is a Marvell PHY
A0 (Only 1000BASE-T1) then the DIP Switch 3 must be OFF [down]. If it is any
other IEEE 1000BASE-T1 conform PHY the DIP Switch must be ON [up]
DIP Switch 4:
Frame Generator
function, always must be OFF [down]. Only in
Frame Generator-Mode, the DIP Switch must be ON [up], in this case, the device
