Why do the MAC counters of F-Tile Ethernet FPGA Hard IP get stuck at zero when dynamically reconfigured during hardware testing?

Description

Due to a problem in the Quartus® Prime Pro Edition Software version 23.3, the MAC status of F-tile Ethernet FPGA Hard IP is not applicable to the SRC register initial power-on sequence. Hence, the MAC counters get stuck in zero while performing dynamic reconfiguration in the hardware test.

Resolution

There is no workaround.

This problem is scheduled to be fixed in a future release of the Quartus® Prime Pro Edition Software.
