Cyclone V GX using all 6 transceivers in both directions

I want to use all 6 transceivers for Gb Ethernet communication but I'm having trouble with the IP and assigning a TX PLL that is not from one of the channels as these are all used for RX. Is it...

Our guy who is in charge of synthesizing the project, is right now working on a version with only 5 transceivers running so that software development has something to work with. But the main problem was that Quartus would not accept not using one of the transceiver channel CMU PLLs for the transmitters. I will have to get back to you when we get time to work on this issue again.
