EDK and ecncrpted .bit, .nky, .mcs files

I'm using EDK to try and produce a produce an encrypted bit file and using Impact an encrypted mcs file.

I've looked at the literature but can't find anything about how to do this within EDK.

Can anyone please point me in the right direction?

Fred,

Not sure I understand what you are trying to do.

If you are running ISE 9.X software on an embedded processor (such as running LINUX on the 405PPC in a Virtex 2 Pro, or a Virtex 4 FX), that software should allow you to generate an encrypted bitstream for use with the 3DES or AES256 decryptors in the V2P or V4 parts. This is no different than me sitting here and running ISE 9.2 on my LINUX desktop machine.

EDK isn't going to tell you how to do anything but get an embedded processor into the FPGA and get it to talk to your design...the software and operating system it runs is up to you.

I need to know more to understand what it is you are trying to do.

If you need to know how to encrypt (generally) using an embedded processor, I would refer you to the NIST website, where you may download reference c programs to perform 3DES or AES256 encryption.
