[dpdk-users] Allocating multiple VLANs to a single VF using SR-IOV NIC card

[hirok borah]

Hi,

We have tried VFd option to unset vlan filtering (rx) and unset vlan
insertion (tx) options on the VF.
We are on ixgbe over 82599 ES NIC.

It appears that with VFd also, RTE APIs are unable to set offloading flags
on the VF.

Any inputs from others would be of much help.
Thanks in advance.

Thanks!!
