Embodiment Construction
[0021]Certain embodiments of the invention can be found in a method and system for managing energy efficiency of a network link via pluggable transceiver modules in an energy efficient network device. An Ethernet network may comprise one or more link partners that may be coupled via an Ethernet link. The one or more link partners may comprise one or more pluggable PHY devices. The pluggable PHY devices and / or higher layer devices may be operable to determine one or more energy efficient network control policies that may specify a power level mode for the one or more link partners, and the one or more link partners may be configured to operate in the specified power level mode. In various embodiments of the invention, a power level mode of operation may be selected based on the energy efficient network control policies. Accordingly, one or more components of the pluggable PHY devices may be reconfigured based on the selected power level mode of operation. A first portion of the one o...
