traffic distribution not happening on 40G ethernet card.

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hi,

I am using nfqnl_test.c code available on netfilter org. I have
generated two binaries (queue0 and queue1) using that nfqnl_test.c
sample code. These binaries are working as per expected behaviour in
case of 10G Ethernet but with 40G Ethernet only one queue is receiving
network traffic.

I am not able to understand why only one queue is receiving network
traffic in case of 40G Ethernet whereas same network traffic is being
distributed in both the queues with 10G Ethernet.

Machine configuration for 40G Ethernet:-

kernel -: 2.6.32-431.el6.x86_64

libmnl-1.0.3-4.el6.x86_64

libnfnetlink-1.0.1-1.el6.x86_64

libnetfilter_queue-1.0.2-1.el6.x86_64

Command used for iptables:-

iptables -A INPUT –i eth4 -j NFQUEUE --queue-balance 0:1


Output:-

[varun@exp2 ~]$ ./queue0

opening library handle

unbinding existing nf_queue handler for AF_INET (if any)

binding nfnetlink_queue as nf_queue handler for AF_INET

binding this socket to queue '0'
