Hi,
I am using Intel 100G E810 NIC card.
I want to know that does the parameter --vdev='  ' values depend on what
type of NIC card we use or not.
For example: --vdev 'net_pcap0,rx_pcap=input.pcap,tx_pcap=output.pcap' in
this statement why net_pcap0 was used?
Please someone help me understand this.

Thank you
Regards
Utkarsh
