4.2 Jumper Setting & Definition
At power-up, the KSZ8081RNB / KSZ8091RNB are configured using the chip’s internal pull-up
and pull-down resistors with its default strapping pin values. Jumpers are provided to override the
default settings, allowing for quick configuration and re-configuration of the board. To override the
default settings, simply select and close the desired jumper setting(s) and toggle the on-board
manual reset button (S1) for the new setting(s) to take effect. The KSZ8081RNB-EVAL /
KSZ8091RNB-EVAL strapping jumper settings are defined in Table 2 below.
