When the core is configured to use GMII or RGMII interface on UltraScale or UltraScale+ devices, you need to set the REFCLK_FREQUENCY attribute of all the IDELAY and ODELAY primitives used by the core to the frequency of the clock driving the ref_clk port. This can be done through XDC constraints. For more information, refer to the example design in Vivado.

set_property REFCLK_FREQUENCY <ref_clk> [get_cells -hier -filter {NAME =~ *<cell_name>}]
Note: The AXI Ethernet Subsystem is a hierarchical IP, and consequently does not have a core XDC. The subcore XDC constraints are automatically applied. It is recommended to check the AXI Ethernet IP example design XDC and apply the constraints (if any) to the top XDC for board and part based subsystem designs.
