The readme file say:

DESCRIPTION:

A Simple Socket Server that controls development board LEDs.

Requirements:

-RTOS Type - MicroC/OS-II

-Software Component - NicheStack TCP/IP Stack - Nios II Edition

-Period System Timer - SYS_CLK_TIMER

PERIPHERALS USED:

This example exercises the following peripherals:

- Ethernet MAC (named "lan91c111" in SOPC Builder)

- PIO, 8-bit output (named "led_pio" in SOPC Builder)

- PIO, 16-bit output (named "seven_seg_pio" in SOPC Builder)

- STDOUT device (UART or JTAG UART)

It doesnt' say anything about TSE
