MAX10 remote configuration with MCU

Design objective is to allow remote configuration update over ethernet with MCU. Is there a reference design or recommended method for this type of configuration?

There are some reference designs in Altera/Intel reaources that you can download. Updating via EtherCAT is not much difference to other protocol, as long as you have proper EtherCAT slave stack implemented on your microp you will get the data in ET mailbox. From there it is just a matter of writing a small controller to control the Erase & Write of CFM flash. You can pm me & I'll be glad to give additional pointers
