Based on the provided context, the Verdin iMX8M Mini supports a single Fast Ethernet Controller (FEC) port. To add additional Ethernet ports, such as using a MiniPCIe card like the Intel I350 for 2x Gigabit LAN, you would need to ensure that your carrier board supports the necessary interfaces and connections for the MiniPCIe card.

The context does not provide specific details on how to configure or enable multiple FEC ports using a MiniPCIe card on the Verdin iMX8M Mini. However, generally, you would need to:

  1. Ensure that your carrier board has a MiniPCIe slot and the necessary connections to support the Intel I350 card.
  2. Configure the device tree to recognize and initialize the additional Ethernet ports provided by the MiniPCIe card.
  3. Install any necessary drivers or software support for the Intel I350 on your Linux distribution.

For specific implementation details, you may need to refer to the datasheets and technical documentation for both the Verdin iMX8M Mini and the Intel I350, as well as consult with Toradex technical support for guidance on configuring multiple FEC ports for EtherCAT masters.
