The short answer is no. Pktgen binds lcores to ports for TX or RX and if yo= u bind one lcore to a port then it will only send to queue id zero for that= port. If you bind more then one lcore to a port Rx or TX then it will sen= d on all queues (O - N) as Pktgen does not allow control of a specific lcor= e/queue. >=20 > Achieving this by CLI option *or* by typing commands at the pktgen> > prompt is OK for me. >=20 > Regards, > Kevin Regards, Keith
