MACsec IP -- Where is it?

I am using Quartus Prime Pro Edition 23.1.0.115-Pro

I was looking in its IP library for the MACsec Intel FPGA IP but I didn't see it anywhere.

I saw the website:

https://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/products/details/fpga/intellectual-property/interface-protocols/macsec.html

But the website makes it seem like it should have been included as part of the Intel Quartus Prime Pro Edition. Shouldn't my software have come with the MACsec IP already in the IP library? Have I misunderstood something?

  • Hi,


    Good day.

    As mentioned by Strell, MACSec IP will be available in Quartus version 24.1.

    Kindly do let me know if that helps to resolve your query.


    Regards,

    Pavee

      Thank you all so much! It took me a while to install Quartus 24.1 and to get the license squared away but now that I've gotten past those hurdles, I do indeed see the MACsec in the IP Library!

      I don't have any experience using MACsec, though, and I could really use a basic tutorial explaining what MACsec is and a step-by-step example explaining what you need and how to set it up in your FPGA. Can anyone recommend a good tutorial?
