Frequent ContributorHi DanielGP,
I am sorry for keep you waiting for long time.
1) If I purchase one license for the Stratix V FPGA, can I use the same license for different boards or is the license associated with only one specific Stratix V FPGA?
> IP-TRIETHERNET is a stand alone license. It is not associate to any dev kit. In other word, you can use to any supported devices as mention in IP-TRIETHERNET user guide.
2) In the future we are planning to have a board with more than one physical ethernet interface. In this case, can we use a single license for instantiating several TSE IPs in the same design?
> Can you explain further, how do you plan to use the license?
> Are you plan to use fix or floating license?
> Do you plan to use server for this application?
Thanks!

Thank you for you reply. So, my answers are underlined:

>> Perfect, this is what I needed to know. Thank you!

>> Our idea is to use the license for different projects and boards. On one particular project, imagine we have 2 ethernet interfaces, which means that we would need to instantiate the IP-TRIETHERNET twice in the design. With a single standalone license, can we instantiate the IP-TRIETHERNET twice in order to work in both ethernet interfaces?
Thank you again for all your support.

Daniel Pestana.
