Hi guys

I’m trying to do something similar like in the question here (https://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/freebsd-net/2017-March/047378.html). We have Chelsio NICs (T580-LP-CR).

Our goal is the following:

  *   RSS Queue 0 -> only control plane traffic, eg. CARP (IP Protocol 112 – Multicast), ICMP, LACP,…
  *   RSS Queue 1-7 -> no change, process everything (probably except protocols already processed in Queue-0)

Any hints how we can achieve something like this with cxgbetool?

Cheers Josef
