Abstract: A method for flexibly configuring default values of a network device and a network device using such flexible configuration method is described. First, it is determined whether the default values are obtained through a microprocessor interface or a memory interface. When it is determined that the default values are obtained through the memory interface, a header is received from a memory through the memory interface it is determined from the header whether any default value of the network device should be updated. If the network device should be updated, then at least one configuration instruction is fetched from the memory and the at least one configuration instruction is interpreted. A register default value of the default values is changed, corresponding to the interpreted at least one configuration instruction.

Abstract: A method for flexibly configuring default values of a network device through an EEPROM interface is disclosed. A header is received from an EEPROM through the EEPROM interface and it is determined from the header whether any default value of the network device should be updated, and if any, how many should be updated. At least one configuration instruction is fetched from the EEPROM when it is determined that the network device should be updated. The at least one configuration instruction is interpreted and a register default value of the default values corresponding to the interpreted at least one configuration instruction is changed.
