Hi, I'm not able to fully understand the relation between the Board file and the Constraints file in Vivado. In my design I need to connect a custom IP block to a Pmod connector on a ZYBO board. I've loaded the XML board file provided by Digilent but now I'm not anymore able to customize the pins as i would do with a constraint file since it seem to me that the mapping it is now specified in the XML file.

Hi,
I'm not able to fully understand the relation between the Board file and the Constraints file in Vivado. In my design I need to connect a custom IP block to a Pmod connector on a ZYBO board. I've loaded the XML board file provided by Digilent but now I'm not anymore able to customize the pins as i would do with a constraint file since it seem to me that the mapping it is now specified in the XML file.
Should I need to add a constraint file even if the Board port mapping is already specified by the board file? Is this a good practice?
Thanks
