you need to connect ethernet pins of lpc1768( Rd+ Rd- Td+ and Td- )to the pulse jack. the physical connection can be found on the following link : http://developer.mbed.org/cookbook/RFID-Tweeter

as far as software is concerned you need to import standard ethernet libraries (there are many ethernet libraries for lpc1768). and write a basic test program

EthernetInterface eth;

eth,init();
eth.connect();
printf("connected, ip address is %s",eth.getIPAddress());

Accepted Answer

is that all nothing to do with the PHY chip, and some passives and a 50MHz clock

If you're using the actual LPC1768 mbed board, that should include the PHY chip on the back, so you just need to wire it up to the RJ45.
