Hi Xyxue, The L2 cross connect CLI via either xconnect or xcrw would put the source/input interface into L2 mode and setup an one-directional cross connect to the specified peer/output interface. The expectation is there should be a xcrw/cross connect CLI for the other direction specifying the other interface as source/input so it will also be in L2 mode.
Hope this help, with regards, John From: 薛欣颖 <xy...@fiberhome.com> Sent: Wednesday, May 16, 2018 3:46 AM To: John Lo (loj) <l...@cisco.com>; Neale Ranns (nranns) <nra...@cisco.com>; vpp-dev <vpp-dev@lists.fd.io> Subject: Re: Re: [vpp-dev] problem in xcrw testing Hi John, The description of 'set interface l2 xcrw' in docs is that 'Add or delete a Layer 2 to Layer 3 rewrite cross-connect'. After put the gre tunnel in l2 mode , there is a 'Layer 2 to Layer 2 rewrite cross-connect'. Is there anything wrong in my comprehension?
