 Hi  Sandesh  [I added one more question]
 Thank you - I already understood that.
1.  I see in the documentation that this app. Supports only **complete offload**.
 But Intel NICS x540 and 82599 which supports ipsec offload requires that the
 SW will  add/remove the ESP headers How can I run this app with x540 nic ?

 2. I added support for ESP header and trailer insertion for inline-protocol-offload for intel x540
Can you tell me the exact command line to run the application for this mode ?   is vdev required ?
 Best Regards
 Avi
