When using multiple instances of the subsystem, based on the mode, certain types of resources can be shared across these instances. Particularly with devices that are not Versal Adaptive SoC, one IP instance should be configured to Include Shared Logic in Core and the remaining instances configured to Include Shared Logic in IP Example Design. The following figure shows that the outputs from a subsystem configured to Include Shared Logic in Core are connected to the inputs of the subsystem configured to Include Shared Logic in IP Example Design .
If only one instance of AXI Ethernet is present, it is recommended to configure it in Include Shared Logic in Core mode.
Following are the two examples: one for RGMII mode and the other for 1000BASE-X mode. Connections for other modes can be done similarly.
