Packet recieved on a port will be flooded in other ports Developed and Tested on pfsense SG-4860 board with centos-7 More information about the hardware in https://store.pfsense.org/SG-4860/

set environment variables pointing to DPDK directory Example: export RTE_SDK=$HOME/DPDK export RTE_TARGET=x86_64-native-linuxapp-gcc Execute make in this directory and binary "hub" will be available in buid directory

setup hugepages as explained in INTEL DPDK Linux user guide scripts/setup_hugepages.sh have the required commands

load uio kernel modules and bind the ports to the module for DPDK use scripts/setup_ports.sh have the required commands

Execute the hub binary. for example ./build/hub -c 2 -n 2
