Vppctl uses a unix socket, yes, but it’s exactly the same as the TCP socket 
version of the CLI – it runs the TELNET protocol and does terminal-like IO with 
unstructured intended-for-humans content. There’s nothing special about it.

Subject: [EXTERNAL] Re: [vpp-dev] Wanted to use socket transport as VAT API ( 
not svm i.e shared memory default)

Hi Ole,
              So VAT APIs has only shared memory has transport?

Socket fd APIs like producer_event_fd etc are there but, I am not sure if they 
are any use.

Please confirm if there is any other way to use VAT API?

ALso vppctl commands between vpp_main and vppctl is using Unix socket?

With Regards
Sastry
