We do traffic capture and analysis and do not throw away anything. I see the different protocol nodes are highly tuned and it would be great if we can reuse them. But looking through the code it does not look like the nodes are configurable. One example: The IP node throws away any packet whose TTL is exceeded. We don't want a TTL check. We want the src and dst address so we can calculate a 5-tuple to reassemble flows. Could you give an example of a project that uses vlib/vppinfra and probably other vpp libs, too? You mentioned those projects exist(ed). I see a small example in the vlib directory which is already a good start, but a real world application could give more valuable insight. -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- Links: You receive all messages sent to this group.
