Why would you need too? The board has a built in ST-LINK which is totally usable in Keil, just configure the debugger settings (ST-LINK, SWD)

Yes, you could disconnect the SWD and NRST connectivity of the on-board ST-LINK (via jumpers and solder bridges), and connect in the U-LINK (or J-LINK), but unnecessary.

ST-LINK v2.

Could you please let me know withIllustration or schematics for understanding more?

Download the STM32F429I-DISCO User Manual, it has a schematic

The DISCO has a USB connection, PC recognizes as an ST-LINK, super simple, stand-alone solution. Plug in, download, debug.

Hello

The 429 board already contains an on-board ST-Link V2.  It and the Keil ULINK2 do essentially the same thing.  We have worked closely with ST to get it all working very nicely, especially Serial Wire Viewer. (SWV).  I can't think of anything the ULINK2 can do the ST-Link V2 can't.

Please see

http://www.keil.com/appnotes/docs/apnt_253.asp

There are a few extra things available with a ULINKpro (i.e. interrupts in Event Viewer and ETM) and with the soon to be released ULINKplus - power measurement related to your source code.  The new Keil Event Recorder (you can annotate your own code) works with any ULINK and ST-Link V2.
