[dpdk-users] PktGen Ethertype

2017-05-09 Thread James Bensley
Hi All, I hope this is a suitable place to ask, if not please point me at somewhere more appropriate. I've been reading through the Pktgen docs (http://pktgen.readthedocs.io/en/latest/commands.html for example) and I'm trying to find out if I can set the EtherType field in the layer 2 headers to

[dpdk-users] Hard Crash with X710 and Pktgen

Hi All, I have some HPE DL boxes that use "HP" NICs (OEM Intel X710s). I have compiled DPDK & Pktgen but when I try to run Pktgen the box hard crashes (it locks up and I have bounce it using IPMI). The main output is below although a full transcript of my attempt is here: https://null.53bits.co.
