Hi Venu, 

You should be able to but not through vcl, as is, because the stack doesn’t 
have any transport that’s equivalent to “raw sockets”. So your options would be 
to either use memif or to write a new host stack transport that passes raw 
packets to apps and integrate it with vcl and the component that classifies 
traffic. 

Note that we used to have an sctp transport but it was deprecated for lack of 
maintenance. If anybody wants to pick up the maintenance work, it could be 
revived. 

Regards,
Florin
