I am observing some problems now. Whenever I execute the ./webbrowser , I am loosing the SSH connection to the HP server. Why is this happening ? , what could be the possible reasons ? I am clueless on this problem. The setup I have is as below: HP Server (one nic is for SSH connection (10.127.x.x) , another nic is controlled by DPDK (192.168.x.x)) Linuxmachine (one nic is for SSH connection(10.127.x.x) , another nic(192.168.x.x) is directly connected with a LAN cable to the NIC on HP server controlled by DPDK) -- Regards Gopi Krishna
