This is not covered by any standard as it is really attaching a managed switch to an Ethernet controller and that is product design more than anything. Obviously there is a standard for the electrical interfaces, but it does not care whether you have a switch, another Ethernet controller, an Ethernet PHY or something else entirely. Vendors refer to "management port" or even "in-band management port" though all that the Ethernet controller does is just pass through Ethernet frames to manage the switch. -- Florian
