Does Kinetis K60_100 support MII interface for ethernet connection?

I would like to use a Kinetis K60_100 mcu, MK60DN512VLL10.

In the K60 datasheet I read "Ethernet controller with MII and RMII interface to external PHY". But the phisical RX/TX pin to PHY are only two RXD0, RXD1 and TXD0,TXD1. It should be 0:3.

Indeed when I implement the Ethernet component on the Processor Expert, selecting interface MII, I had the following error: "target processor does not contain peripheral".

What I do not understand?

Bless you !

The K60 supports MII Ethernet connection but you will need to chose a package with 144 pins for these options to be available.

The 100 and 121 pin packages lead-out only the RMII pins.
