PRODUCTION DATA
Wake forwarding is a way to wake-up other PHYs connected to the same WAKE line, when one of the PHYs have woken up remotely. When PHY wakes-up from sleep on the reception of WUP (remote wake-up), the PHY transmits a pulse of width greater than 40μs on the WAKE line to wake-up other PHYs connected to the same wake-line without any manual intervention.
Wake forwarding can also be done by a PHY during active link upon reception of special WUR symbols. WUR can be initiated on one the PHYs by programming reg<0x018C> = 0x0080. The link partner PHY forwards WAKE pulse of width 40μs upon reception of those WUR symbols.
