Nios to FPGA Avalon-MM

I want to transfer data from Nios (host) to a custom agent component on the FPGA through Avalon-MM interface. But, the host and agent operate at different clock speeds. How to facilitate data transfer in this scenario?

    In Platform Designer, just connect them together. The generated interconnect will automatically include CDC logic, either a FIFO or handshaking, depending on the options you set in PD (I think it's Interconnect Requirements in Standard and the Domains tab in Pro).

    If you want more control, you can manually add/insert an Avalon clock crossing bridge from the IP Catalog.
