-dev] containers interconnect via memif
OK, just to be clear, memif lets you pass L2 or L3 packets... but it does not
provide a TCP stack (if you need a TCP stack, we have one of those too :) ).

Thank you Damjan
see setup of 2 containers one act as a master the other slave - here:
https://docs.fd.io/vpp/17.10/libmemif_example_setup_doc.html
but this works only with the specific image 'libmemif-sample-service'

Sara,
libmemif currently can act only as memif slave, but there is no reason for not
being master, somebody just needs to extend the lib.
Thanks,

Ed,
there are some use-cases , for example:
- 2 work loads under same tenant - need to exchange info
- CNF's implementing SFC

Sara,
A couple question:
What are you wanting to connect via memif in your containers? Is it a CNF
(Cloud-native Network Function... ie something meant to process packets) or
a traditional app (think webserver, databace, etc)?

Hello All,
I've followed the example as per
https://docs.fd.io/vpp/17.10/libmemif_doc.html .
everything works fine.
My question is how to connect 2 containers where the container image is a
common image [not necessarily libmemif-sample-service] ?
what to install ? how to create the memif interfac
