Timing constraint for 1000Mbps Small Mac in Quartus 14.0

[Altera_Forum]

Hi All, 

 Quartus has stopped generating an automatically generated timing constraint file after Quartus 14.0 and I am having problems in constraining the 1000Mbps Small Mac. The design is fully constrained but there are a lot of irregularities relating to the RX Clock of the Mac. If anyone has an example .sdc file to share it would be a great help or just guide me through constraining the Mac.  Thanks in advance

The timing constraints will be very dependent on what type of external Ethernet interface you are using - i.e gmii/sgmii/rgmii/transceiver etc.
