Mentor Graphics AXI Verification IP Suite license issue

Hello.

I purchased from Intel the "Mentor Graphics AXI Verification IP Suite" P/N: IPS-AXIBFM and downloaded the new generated license. But, unfortunately, I see that in the new generated license the 'Mentor Graphics AXI3 Master BFM' and 'Mentor Graphics AXI3 Slave BFM' still missing. This preventing from me to perform simulation of the Cyclone V HPS devices that I'm working on.

During the simulation in QuestaSim, I'm getting the followng error:

# Loading C:/intelFPGA/23.1std/ip/altera/mentor_vip_ae/common//questa_mvc_core/win64_gcc-7.4.0/libaxi_IN_SystemVerilog_MTI_full_DVC.dll
# --------- --------- --------- --------- --------- --------- ---------
# ** ERROR: failed to get a license (mgcvipaeaxi) for 'axi'
# ** Check the license environment (e.g. LM_LICENSE_FILE or MGLS_LICENSE_FILE using lmutils), the transcript and any logs.
# --------- --------- --------- --------- --------- --------- ---------
#
# ** Fatal: (vsim-3960) Foreign module requested halt.

# FATAL ERROR while loading design

Please, you urgent help.

Thanks.

      Hello.
      Altera's Local Field Application Engineer suggested me for solving the problem of simulation Cyclone V devices, to purchase IPS-AXIBFM. However, the problem is not solved after purchasing the IP.

      Regarding Siemens, I contacted them, they don't have any product that will satisfy simulating Cyclone V devices. The legacy IP was developed especially for Altera and is no longer supported by them.

      What is your proposed way to simulate Cyclone V HPS-based devices?

      Please, your help.

    Hello.

    Are there any updates and support for the simulation of Cyclone V?

    Hi

    Let me check further. Could you provide the license .dat file for checking.
