Hello @vediyappan_villali , @hasim__khan ,
Thanks for your post.
First, please pay attention to your jumper switch. You can find the relevant information about it at FRDM-KE17Z512 Board User Manual.

Secondly, if there is no problem with the jumpers, please try to flash or update the firmware of the mcu-link. The details are as follows:
The on-board debugger of the FRDM-KE17Z512 uses the LPC55s69 chip. It is different from the FRDM-KE15Z/FRDM-KE17Z. The FRDM-KE15Z/17Z uses the K20 chip. These two have different mechanisms.
For boards with the K20 as the on-board debugger, we need to update the Opensda firmware refer to OpenSDA V2 Firmware, just like what you do for FRDM-KE15Z.
However, for boards with the LPC55s69 as the on-board debugger (we call it mcu-link), for the introduction of the mcu-link, you can refer to section "3 MCU-Link OB debug probe" of FRDM-KE17Z512 Board User Manual. For the firmware upgrade, you can refer to section "3.4 MCU-Link host driver and utility installation" and section "3.5 Updating MCU-Link firmware using the firmware utility" of it.


After the above two attempts, you should be able to use external debuggers, such as JLink, normally.
If there are still problems, please let me know and I will continue to help you.
Hope it can help you.
BRs,
Celeste
