Dear all,

The issue was resolved.
I want to see packet receive on host, but failed.
Should launch VM with VF PCI passthrough, then we can see traffic in VM VF interface.

Dear all,


I used the following steps to setup pool mirror for Intel 82599ES, but failed.

Step 1: I setup 4 VFs for 05:00.0

05:00.0 Ethernet controller: Intel Corporation 82599ES 10-Gigabit SFI/SFP+ Network Connection (rev 01)
05:10.0 Ethernet controller: Intel Corporation 82599 Ethernet Controller Virtual Function (rev 01)
05:10.2 Ethernet controller: Intel Corporation 82599 Ethernet Controller Virtual Function (rev 01)
05:10.4 Ethernet controller: Intel Corporation 82599 Ethernet Controller Virtual Function (rev 01)
05:10.6 Ethernet controller: Intel Corporation 82599 Ethernet Controller Virtual Function (rev 01)

Step 2: bind 05:00.0 to igb_uio

Step3: start testpmd and then type the following command

// I want to set pool mirroring on 05:00.0
// Mirror the traffic VF 4 - Pool 3 (05:10.6) to VF 3 - Pool 2 (05:10.4)
set port 0 mirror-rule 0 pool-mirror 0x8 dst-pool 2 on

Step 4: send traffic on VF4.
I expected that I could see the same traffic on VF 3, but I failed.

Any wrong with my steps?
Anyone ever setup pool mirroring successfully?

Thanks a lot!
