ABSTRACT:
In one embodiment, a system for configuring an interconnect device includes a non-volatile storage device to store configuration data associated with the interconnect device and a configuration interface to request the configuration data from the non-volatile storage device. Further, the system includes an initialization module to query the configuration interface for the configuration data and to distribute the configuration data provided by the configuration interface to multiple units within the interconnect device.
