Verification IP can be helpful when performing simulation on designs that are using AXI IP. See the following documents for more information:
- AXI Verification LogiCORE IP Product Guide (PG267)
- AXI4-Stream Verification LogiCORE IP Product Guide (PG277)
- Zynq-7000 SoC Verification IP Data Sheet (DS940)

(DS941) Important: The AXI Verification IP is written in SystemVerilog and uses randomization. Not all third-party simulators support SystemVerilog and randomization. Check Vivado Design Suite User Guide: Release Notes, Installation, and Licensing (UG973) for information about third-party compatibility to the AXI VIP.Video: Also, the following Video is available to help you understand how to use the Zynq-7000 VIP for simulation: Vivado Design Suite QuickTake Video: How to Use the Zynq-7000 Verification IP to Verify and Debug using Simulation.
You can instantiate the IP. If additional Verification IP support for interfaces is required, use one of the following Tcl commands:
set_property CONFIG.INSERT_VIP 1 [get_bd_intf_pin <path_to_interface>]
set_property CONFIG.<interface_name>.INSERT_VIP 1 [get_ips <ipname>]
