I have tried the commands as follows: ./pkt-gen -i netmap:pipename{1 -f tx ./pkt-gen -i netmap:pipename}1 -f rx (in another terminal) But it works failed. Should the pipename be replaced with a invalid NIC name such as "eth3" in netmap mode? The netmap pipe works from software ring to software ring independently with NICs, I understand. Is that right?
