Hi
I have the below setup and would like to check the l3fwd application running on VM 
 
VM1                                 VM2(DPDK-L3fwd)                                VM3
vnic1 ------bridge1 --------vnic1             vnic2------bridge2--------vnic1


On VM1 -TCP client and, on VM3 -TCP server applications are running
The TCP client and server should communicate via the DPDK L3fwd application running on VM2.
 
I created a static arp entry on VM1 in order that the packets reach VM2 vnic1, and then the DPDK-L3fwd app would take care of forwarding the packets to VM2 vnic2, and further the packets reach VM3 vnic1
 
This is not working for me, please let me know if I need to do some additional steps in order to complete the flow.
 
All the vnic's are configured as e1000 drivers.

Regards
Gopi Krishna B
