Enabling Ethernet via QSFP or SFP+ on Agilex™ 5 FPGA E-Series 065B Premium Development Kit

Hello, 

We are trying to enable enable Ethernet stack on the Linux OS installed on HPS of "Agilex™ 5 FPGA E-Series 065B Premium Development Kit". The dev kit comes with two QSFPs and two SFP+ physical ports.

Wondering if anyone has been able to successfully connect Linux OS Ethernet driver to any of the QSFP or SFP+ port? If yes, can you please point to any documentation or user-guide or provide hints.

We have been exploring possibly connecting via the TSE soft-IP, but don't know how to go about it. 

Here is our desired configuration:

Our Linux User Application <--> Linux OS running on ARM-core HPS <--> Ethernet Driver (stack) <---> Ethernet TSE IP <---> Agilex 5 FPGA Fabric <----> Ethernet PHY <---> SFP+ or QSFP.

We are trying to understand: How should we implement this Ethernet connectivity? Is there a specific driver that we need to use on the OS side? How should we configure the TSE?, etc.

We want to use soft-IP because we want to enable at least two interfaces (SFP+ or QSFP) simultaneously.

FYI: The FPGA part number on our board: 

The FPGA part number on our Premium board is: A5ED065BB32AE6SR0

Thank you in advance for any guidance or pointers.

Sincerely,

RS
