Subject: [PATCH] examples/pipeline: simplify the L2 forwarding example
Date: Tue, 13 Feb 2024 12:13:37 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20240213121337.1521711-1-cristian.dumitrescu@intel.com> (raw)

Simplified the L2 forwarding examples by removing all tables and
actions, as they are not really needed for this simplest use-case.
