Why are packet counters rolling over within the PTP packet parser of the Ethernet Subsystem Intel® FPGA IP?

Environment

    Intel® Quartus® Prime Pro Edition
    Interfaces
BUILT IN - ARTICLE INTRO SECOND COMPONENT
Description

Due to a problem in the Intel® Quartus® Prime Pro Edition Software version 23.1, the packet counters within the PTP packet parser of the Ethernet Subsystem Intel® FPGA IP will roll over when small back-to-back packets are encountered, and the packet counters are nearing the saturated value (i.e., all F’s). 

Resolution

There is no workaround for this problem. 
This problem has been fixed in version 23.2 of the Intel® Quartus® Prime Pro Edition Software.
