Re: [dpdk-users] port 0 not present on board error

Not showing "Active" status is perfectly normal.

The problem here is that you will probably need to supply extra parameters.
This is from your previous posts:

pragash at revvit<http://dpdk.org/ml/listinfo/users>:~/dpdk-stable-17.05.2/examples/l3fwd/build$ ./l3fwd -l 0-4 --no-huge -- -p 0x1

Try changing to:

pragash at revvit<http://dpdk.org/ml/listinfo/users>:~/dpdk-stable-17.05.2/examples/l3fwd/build$ ./l3fwd -l 1-4(core 0 is usually master lcore) --no-huge -- -p 0x3 -L(optional) -config="(0,0,1),(1,0,2)" --parse-type



This worked for me. You can check the docs here http://dpdk.org/doc/guides/sample_app_ug/l3_forward.html for all options.


If you don't specify the "config" option the app won't even start returning the "check port config" error. You must also supply the "-parse-type" cmd parameter otherwise app complaints and fails to start with the following error "port 0 cannot parse packet type, please add -parse-type"
