I am trying to setup/use the flow-director-filter on the i540. -- When I try to setup the flow-director-filter as per the example, I am ge= tting "bad arguments"!!! So decided to see if the flush command would work. In the interim --- I am using ethertype filter to accomplish the following. What I am trying to do is this -- Use 2 different i540 cards Use the igb_uio driver. Use the testpmd app. Setup 5 different MAC-ADDRESSes on each port. (using the set mac_addr comma= nd) Setup 5 different RxQs and TxQs on each port. And then use the testpmd app to generate traffic.. I am assuming that the testpmd app will now send and receive traffic using = the 5 different MAC_ADDRESSes.. On each port's receive I will now want to classify on the MAC-ADDRESS and s= teer the traffic to different queues. Is there an example/reference on how to achieve this? Next, I would want to do "classify" on "flexbytes" and send/steer the traff= ic to different queues using flow-director-filter.
