Hi,

I am seeing "Tx packet drops" on a VPP controlled DPDK device (VPP 18.07).
Initially, traffic was working fine between the device and a SecGW
connected via an IPsec tunnel. After a few hours, the device has become
unreachable and ARP became unresolved.

Cleared VPP counters and initiated the ping again, then observed that the
ARP requests from SecGW were reaching the device but ARP response packets
were dropping at DPDK.

The below is the "show error" output when ping was initiated from SecGW to
the device.
