10G Ethernet MAC Design example issue with Modelsim Altera starter edition 10.1e

Hello,

I'm using Quartus II 14.0. I wanted to simulate the design example for 10G Ethernet MAC ip core. I'm following Altera Document for step by step procedure for 10G E MAC ip core Mega function user guide. when i run the do tb_run.tcl , the modelsim fails to simulate and it gives an error.

    Are you using the same version of Quartus and Modelsim that the design was developed with?

    Hi,

    Yes. I'm using same version as used by Reference design document. There are two design examples in Ethernet directory. If i run simulation for "altera_eth_10g_mac_base_r" design example, simulation will work fine. If i run another design example "altera_eth_10g_mac_xaui", simulation will through error as mentioned in previous thread.

    what could be the reason.?

    Please help me to resolve this issue.?

    thanks and regards

    Probably some files are missing. Since the other design is working fine, I would suggest you contact Altera on this.
