I am using the linux-cp plugin in VPP (v21.06) and run into issues with 
multicast packet from OSPF.
I try to make FRR work with VPP.  I created a lcp pair (ETH2-VPP2), ETH2 
directly connect to router using OSPF.

FRR------VPP (192.168.100.5)----------Router (192.168.100.20)
VPP2       ETH2                                        ETH1

vppctl lcp create tn-eth2 host-if vpp2 netns t3-tap-ns
ip netns exec t3-tap-ns ip addr add 192.168.100.5/24 dev vpp2
ip netns exec t3-tap-ns ip link set dev vpp2 up


When I do tshark on Router ETH1, I can see hello packets from both sides, i.e. 
192.168.100.5->224.0.0.5 and 192.168.100.20->224.0.0.5.
But when do tshark on VPP2, I can only see hello packets from 
192.168.100.5->224.0.0.5. Seems VPP didn't forward multicast packets to VPP2.
When I do packet trace, this is what I got:
01:21:34:796763: dpdk-input
  tn-eth2 rx queue 0

Do I need to do anything special for multicast packets to be directed to the 
TAP interface?
