Subject: [dpdk-users] Setup pktgen as a receiver
Date: Thu, 12 Apr 2018 15:32:12 +0300 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <CAPBN5MJFHgZudLrjbx-zegS5REG_0A2Eb+2g47RUpcA5DQ63qg@mail.gmail.com> (raw)
I'm trying to run 2 pktgen instances, on two separate VMs, one act as a
generator and the other act as the a receiver.
TX is OK, but for some reason the intended RX pktgen seem to receive no
packets (RX counters are zero).
With no pktgen/dpdk, both RX and TX interfaces can communicate properly (so
no network infrastructure level issue I suppose).
The cmd I use to init both ends is:
'./app/x86_64-native-linuxapp-gcc/pktgen -c 0x7 -n 1 -- -T -P -m "[1:2].0"'
Then 'start 0' on the TX instance.
Is there anything else I should execute on the RX instance for it to start
receiving packets?
Some more infrastructure details:
- Both interface are Intel SR-IOV VFs
- Hypervisor is VMware ESXi 6.5
- SR-IOV vSwitches are configured to allow promiscuous mode.
- Ubuntu 16.04 Guest OSs
- DPDK 18.02, pktgen 3.4.9
