Hi Pierre,
I was using "yum install vpp and vpp-lib" and there was no plugins.
Now I build the whole vpp source, including plugins, and added
plugin_path
/<home_dir>/vpp/extras/rpm/vpp-17.07.01/build-root/build-vpp-native/vpp/plugins
to /etc/vpp/startup.conf file. Then restarted vpp.service.
Now
- how to do know that VPP lb plugin is loaded
- I still cant find the "lb" command. I guess it is really not a command.
But, where I need to add these "lb" configuration and what is the syntax?
- In the monitoring section, it mentioned "show lb, show lv vips, .." Are
they subcommands for vppctl? I tried and it does not work.

John
