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-h=
uge -- -p 0x3 -L(optional) -config=3D"(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 er=
ror "port 0 cannot parse packet type, please add -parse-type"
