Thank you Jarome I'm working with LXC , but should be applied for docker as well I can connect the container through a virtio-user port in VPP, and a tap interface in kernel But we pay for a vhost kthread that is copying data from kernel to user space and viceversa. Another option is to connect with veth pair - but the performance is further degraded
Another issue is how VPP interface with sandbox?
