New ContributorHow to get again license file for old perpetual Quartus license?
Hi
Apologize for the inconvenience and delay in response since I was out of office recently.
- Is "one" license for IPS-EMBEDDED (approx. 1000$) valid for the whole company or just for one Workstation?
The "one" license has 2 types, floating and fixed. Depend on license type customer use. Fixed license is for 1 device per use (tie to one device). Floating licenses depend on number of seat that customer buy. no limitation on number of seats that customer can purchase.
- IPS-EMBEDDED is included in Quartus Prime Standard. Is it also included in Quartus Prime Lite?
The IPS-EMBEDDED is referring to (Nios® II Embedded Design Suite) only. Can refer here https://www.intel.com/content/dam/www/central-libraries/us/en/documents/quartus-prime-compare-editions-guide.pdf sorry if the statement confused.
Hope this clarify. Thanks
Regular ContributorHello,
There is self service licensing center here : https://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/support/programmable/licensing/support-center.html
You can get the license from this portal.

New ContributorHello Farabi
Thanks so far, but there remain some troubles. There seems to be a misunderstanding on my side: I thought the company has purchased the NIOS II IP. However, my colleague told me now that he thinks that was included with Quartus Prime Lite Edition. So I tried to generate a license in the self-service center.
However, how do I find the license for NIOS II IP? According to the license file of my colleague, it is called shortly "Embedded IP Suite" and it is described as "license file for the Altera Embedded Suite which inlcudes Nios II Soft Processor MegaCore,Triple Speed Ethernet MAC, DDR2 SDRAM Controller supporting ALTMEMPHY, DDR3 SDRAM Controller supporting ALTMEMPHY, and new 16550 UART."
I just tried the "Intel® FPGA IP IP-NIOSVM", but it turned out to be for NIOS V M core, not for NIOS II.
**** How do I get the license for NIOS II IP and the associated "Embedded IP Suite"? ****

By the way, there is also the technical problem on www level (it was described similarly by someone else in the support forum): when I go to https://licensing.intel.com which gets soon modified to https://licensing.intel.com/psg/s/, and later to https://licensing.intel.com/psg/s/?language=en_US (despite I am not in USA, but attempts to change it to an appropriate geographic region are successful for a short time only, then it falls back to USA, even when I am continuously logged in -- but I hope that is not a relevant issue), Mozilla Firefox 103.0.2 (64 Bit) gets trapped in a loop of loading the page, clearing it, loading it again etc. At least, up to now, Microsoft Edge 104.0.1293.54 (64-Bit) does not show this behaviour. Hope I don't need to try another browser every new day...
