Hi I changed the vcl_test_server / client from TCP to UDP.
Question: Why does the UDP enqueued marked as error_drop? I get the following in my setup: how interface Name Idx State Counter Count GigabitEthernet0/7/0 1 up rx packets 6 rx bytes 488 tx packets 6 tx bytes 472 drops 6 ip4 6 GigabitEthernet0/8/0 2 up local0 0 down vpp# vpp# show interface SERVER: [root@vbbubng6-shashi-2 vpp]# ./build-root/build-vpp-native/vpp/vcl_test_server 5682 SERVER: Waiting for a client to connect on port 5682...
