Unsupported Phy bug

Hi Guys,

I am trying to connect the micrel ksz8081 phy to cyclone altera using the

TSE mac based on simple socket server ( by nichestack ).

I used a file called "tse_my_sysetm.c"(attached) -cause this phy is not supported in the nios sw.

from some reson the phy to mac mapping failes-and i am not able to ping from PC to FPGA mac.

The nios prints:# ################################################################

Can anyone advise on how to integrate this phy to the altera TSE mac based on the simple socket server software?
