Hallo, I'm planning to buy a development board based on Virtex-4FX.
I have read about V-4FX that ethernet mac is inside the FPGA.
I should buy also the license to use it when I make a project into EDK for plb interface?
Many Thanks Marco

You don't need a special license to use the embedded Virtex4 TriMode Ethernet MAC.
Check out Gigabit System Reference Design (GSRD) such an EDK project:

No, Ethernet MAC is hard core and it's free
Many Thanks to everyone for the replies. Marco
But, be careful though, there isn't any s/w support for it in EDK yet.
Cheers, Jon

Thanks Jon,
I was sure EDK supports the hardcore EMAC - but afer looking closer it seems that there is no support in edk7.1 :(
any info if it is included in EDK 8.1 ? or is it coming in some EDK 8.1 service pack (like DDR2 support) ?
