[dpdk-users] Using l2fwd-crypto sample app

[Das, Surajit]

Hi Declan,

Thanks for reaching out.
You are right, I had missed installing nasm and intel-ipsec-mb.

I also had missed changing ./build/.config file content from CONFIG_RTE_LIBRTE_PMD_AESNI_MB=n to CONFIG_RTE_LIBRTE_PMD_AESNI_MB=y


I can see l2fwd-crypto running now.
I have started exploring ipsec-secgw and am running into a different set of issues.
I will send a new mail with a different subject line, as that issue is unrelated.

Regards,
Surajit

Hey Surajit, It's difficult to tell from the log output but have you actually installed the required libraries for the IPsec MB PMD on your system. If you're not sure look at the installation guide in

Hey Surajit,



It's difficult to tell from the log output but have you actually

installed the required libraries for the IPsec MB PMD on your system. If

you're not sure look at the installation guide in the documentation:

If your interested in IPsec, you could also have a look at our IPsec

Security Gateway sample application, which implements most of the data

path of an IPsec security gateway, see the docs here
