AM3358: AM3358 RGMII connection to port 6 of KSZ9477S ethernet switch IC

Part Number:AM3358

We want to build a board with multiple ethernet ports using AM3358 and KSZ9477S. We want to connect AM3358  to sixth port of KSZ9477S switch IC via RGMII. But  while searching through some forums I found some info that AM335x doesn't support MAC-to-MAC connection, also there is the following paragraph in AM335x's datasheet:

"The EMAC and Switch implemented in the AM335x device supports GMII mode, but the AM335x design does not pin out 9 of the 24 GMII signals. This was done to reduce the total number of package terminals. Therefore, the AM335x device does not support GMII mode. MII mode is supported with the remaining GMII signals."

So now I'm a little bit confused... On the other hand SAMA5D33 SoC can be connected to KSZ9477S via RGMII (according to the KSZ9477S's evaluation kit). Please, can you clarify this things for me... Can I connect AM3358 to the sixth port of KSZ9477S switch via RGMII?
