Subject: [dpdk-users] Configuring MAC Address of KNI - Don't want random
Date: Sat, 9 Apr 2016 01:41:27 -0400 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <CAHXxcudp7E+r_FWYZK3rhn6uCQXP6S3=LkWPvwV1oazOquC_xg@mail.gmail.com> (raw)
Hello,
I am having an issue where when creating the KNI interface I would like to
KEEP the hardware MAC address. I can properly create the interface. It
starts in a down state, I then need to manually ifconfig the IP Address and
MAC address with UP to get what I need. If I just do the plain ifconfig -v
vEth0_0 up - it assigns a random mac address. (Using a e1000 as well I350
and emulated e1000)
This also happens if you DOWN the interface and bring it UP using ifconfig
again. Using Version 2.2.0
What is the proper procedure/flow for doing this within the codebase so I
can have the end result of the original hardware MAC and the interface in
an UP state?
Sorry if this seems basic I just can't seem to find any examples of how
this is done.
