New ContributorLicense for Altera DE2, quartus II
Hello everyone,
I find a Altera DE2 development board and installed Quartus II 7.2 but there is no license. I tried the self licensing center and use the legacy licensing. My mac address is E84E062E4EA4. But the email tells me they cannot generate license for it.
Any ideas? Thanks!

ZFENG10Hi Vicky,
Thank you very much! I've submitted my request and hope I will get my license soon.
Once I get my license, I will update this thread.
Thanks & Best Regards

It seems Altera DE2 doesn't have license. I have to buy it or download the Lite version.
But thanks everyone!

Hi ZHE, Prior to Quartus version 8.1, license generation can be done from the below Legacy license generator software , https://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/programmable/support/support-resources/download/licensing/lic-choose.html Refer the below different Intel FPGA software license types & old forum thread, https://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/programmable/support/support-resources/download/licensing/overview.html https://forums.intel.com/s/question/0D50P0000470hlA/i-need-a-license-to-enable-the-design-security-feature-for-quartus-thank-yousoftware-quartus-prime-181-device-cyclone-v?language=en_US&s1oid=00DU0000000YT3c&s1nid=0DB0P000000U1Hq&emkind=chatterCommentNotification&s1uid=0050P000008ASID&emtm=1542241285784&fromEmail=1&s1ext=0 Please let me know if you come across different issue.

Hi Vicky
Thank you for you reply!
I tried the legacy license generator, but the email says it cannot generate the license for the NIC I've provided.
I am using Linux system and I got my NIC by running the command ifconfig. It gives me something like "aa:bb:cc:dd:ee:ff". I remove the colon ":".
