3.1.5.1.1. Packet Generator for E-, H-, and L-Tile Ethernet IPs

You can set the packet generator mode for the following options:
  • Random Mode - Random Gap
  • Random Mode - No Gap
  • Fixed Size Mode
  • Incremental Mode

You can set the total number of packets limit using the fixed size and incremental mode options.

Note: The Example Design Packet Generator Settings tab is not available for E-Tile Hard IP for Ethernet Intel® FPGA IP and E-Tile Ethernet IP for Intel Agilex® 7 FPGA variants with PCS only and PCS+RS-FEC modes.
