Hi everyone,

I'm new to DPDK, I have a question on how to announce VIP through BGP for
my LB based on DPDK.

The design looks like this:

   - I have multiple hosts (virtual machines or physical machines), every
   host advertising the same VIP, 10.0.0.10 for example.
   - Each LB host has two NICs, one for DPDK, one for admin purposes.
   - LB forward the packets to backend servers based on VIP configuration


Normally, I use Bird or Quagga for BGP advertising, but I don't know how to
make BGP work with DPDK applications. Do I need to implement BGP within the
DPDK application? It looks overkilling to me.

Looking forward to getting advice from you, or pointing me to any
references.

Thanks very much.

Best wishes,
James
