The lib directory is required for all user designs. The other directories contain
documentation and other files for an example design.
You can parameterize and instantiate the 10-Gbps Ethernet IP core using either the
MegaWizard Plug-In Manager or SOPC Builder design flow. The MegaWizard
Plug-In Manager allows you to customize and create RTL for the IP core and then
integrate this variant into your overall design.
SOPC Builder allows you can add the 10-Gbps Ethernet IP core directly to a new or
existing SOPC Builder system. Use this design flow if your design includes other
SOPC Builder components. When you generate an SOPC Builder system, SOPC
Builder automatically creates the HDL to connect components in your system design
and generates simulation models.
