+Launch secondary process.
+
+Spp_primary is able to launch a secondary process with given type, secondary
+ID and options of EAL and application itself. This is a list of supported type
+of secondary processes.
+
+ * nfv
+ * vf
+ * mirror
+ * pcap
+
+.. code-block:: console
+
+ # spp_nfv with sec ID 1
+ spp > pri; launch nfv 1 -l 1,2 -m 512 -- -n -s 192.168.1.100:6666
+
+ # spp_vf with sec ID 2
+ spp > pri; launch vf 2 -l 1,3-5 -m 512 -- --client-id -s 192.168.1.100:6666
+
+You notice that ``--proc-type secondary`` is not given for launching secondary
+processes. ``launch`` command adds this option before requesting to launch
+the process so that you do not need to input this option by yourself.
+
+``launch`` command supports TAB completion for type, secondary ID and the rest
+of options. Some of EAL and application options are just a template, so you
+should update them before launching.
+
+In terms of log, each of secondary processes are output its log messages to
+files under ``log`` directory of project root. The name of log file is defined
+with type of process and secondary ID. For instance, ``nfv 2``, the path of log
+file is ``log/spp_nfv-2.log``.
