Hello,

I'd like to try out the Flow Director feature with an 82599 but 
see that it's bleeding-edge and the feature is a bit in flux.

Should I wait for the new filter approach or can I try it now?  
Want to direct incoming multicast UDPv4 traffic to specific 
queues by destination address.  Packets are *never* fragmented
and MTU is 1500.

If it's reasonable to try it out now, which kernel would be best 
to work with?  Better scheduler performance and more stable and 
older are better from my perspective, in that order.  I doubt it, 
but are there any distros-supported kernels that can be used?  
Just checked the RHEL6 VM and see that 'ethtool' does not 
support the -U/-u switches.

Thanks!

David
