Why do the 25G Ethernet Intel® Arria® 10 FPGA IP core, Intel® 50 Gbps Ethernet (50GbE) IP core, and the 25G Ethernet Intel® Stratix® 10 FPGA IP core incorrectly report oversized frames for VLAN and Stacked VLAN Tagged frames?

Environment

  • Intel® Quartus® Prime Pro Edition
  • Intel® Quartus® Prime Standard Edition
  • 25G Ethernet Intel® FPGA IP
  • 50G Ethernet Intel® FPGA IP
  • BUILT IN - ARTICLE INTRO SECOND COMPONENT

    Critical Issue

    Description

    Due to a problem with the IP Cores listed above, oversized frames are incorrectly reported to VLAN/Stacked VLAN tagged frames when all conditions below are met:

    VLAN frame

    1. VLAN Detection is enabled
    2. Sending/receiving frame length is between the maximum TX/RX frame length plus 1 to 4 octets
    Stacked VLAN frame
    1. VLAN Detection is enabled
    2. Sending/receiving frame  length is between the maximum TX/RX frame length plus 1 to 8 octets
    Resolution

    No workaround for this problem exists in current releases of the IP.

    This problem is fixed beginning with the Intel® Quartus® Prime Pro Edition software version 20.4.
