You have to attach at least 2 ENIs to the instances since one of them would be taken over by DPDK.

The term you called "ENI" is new to me, so what kind of device is it? It must be one of this: 1. Emulated Device (I suspect this is the one; because DPDK API works without any change) 2. Para-virtual Device 3. Directly Assigned Device 4. Fully customized Device (i.e shared memory with GrantTable mechanism) or 5.
