Subject: [vpp-dev] vpp_api_test via socket file
Hello,
I am trying to override api-segment prefix as well as override cli-listen
socket file [1].
However I am not able to connect to VPP via vpp_api_test over the socket file.
Is this expected behavior? How to connect to vpp via vpp_api_test over custom
socket file?
I am aiming for controlling more than one VPP instance (that is why prefix) via
vpp_api_test. Is that possible?
Thank you.
My startup.conf
unix
{
cli-listen /run/vpp/cli-vpp1.sock
log /tmp/vpe.log
nodaemon
}
api-segment
{
prefix vpp1
}
cpu
{
corelist-workers 2
main-core 1
}
dpdk
{
dev 0000:07:00.0
}
1) Connecting to vppctl works:
$ sudo vppctl -s /run/vpp/cli-vpp1.sock sh ver
vpp v18.04-release built by root on f10ad4364e3e at Wed Apr 25 16:06:03 UTC 2018
2) Connecting to vpp_api_test does not work
$ sudo vpp_api_test socket-name /run/vpp/cli-vpp1.sock
clib_socket_init: connect (fd 3, '/run/vpp/cli-vpp1.sock'): Protocol wrong type
for socket
