Hi all,
Is it still possible to run multiple instances of VPP, just like it was done
with VPP-lite (see here: https://wiki.fd.io/view/VPP/Progressive_VPP_Tutorial)
before merging it ?
Actually, my problem is the following. I need to run several instances of VPP
(eg. vpp1, vpp2, vpp3, etc) to simulate a topology. But, for some reason, I'm
not able to make it work as expected. I've already disabled DPDK plugin to run
in "lite" mode. Could it be a configuration issue ? VPP startup.conf:
unix {
nodaemon
log /tmp/vpp.log
full-coredump
cli-listen /run/vpp/cli.sock
gid vpp
}
api-trace {
on
}
api-segment {
gid vpp
}
plugins {
plugin dpdk_plugin.so { disable }
}
I tried to compare both VPP and VPP-lite. A first observation showed that VPP
is installed as a service, which is not the case for VPP-lite. I've also
compared both config files. Here is VPP-lite startup.conf:
unix {
nodaemon
log /tmp/vpp.log
full-coredump
}
api-trace {
on
}
api-segment {
gid vpp
}
Currently, here is how I try to mimic VPP-lite behavior with VPP:
sudo vpp api-segment { prefix vpp1 } unix { cli-listen /run/vpp/cli.vpp1.sock }
sudo vppctl -s /run/vpp/cli.vpp1.sock
It works for one instance, but not for more, even if it does not throw any
error. Do you have any idea on how to proceed or what is wrong here ?
Thanks !
Justin
