DP83867IS: what should be - auto neg boot strap (RX_CTRL)

Part Number: DP83867IS

at the datasheet on table 6 (4 level strap pins) the RX_CTRL strap input determines the mode of the PHYs Autoneg disable as mode3 = 0 and mode4 =1.

  while at table 10 of the BMCR bit 12 which states 1 = autoneg enabled , 0 = autobneg - disabled.

we cannot figure what should be the strap mode in the our case -  we want the phy to enable the autoneg function.  - we prefer not to use the MDIO/MDC.
