Hi team,

when I am trying to run the t-rex server it is showing error as "error in dpdk map ..can't find the requested interface. I tried updating the OFED and Mellanox but seems it is not loading the new driver in the NICs.

The screenshot is attached below.

Instead of using the BroadCom Nic (BCM5720).

Use the Intel Nic. Intel Nic as the DPDK Support.

Is there a way so that I can bind the Mellanox drivers to the my BroadCom NIC ports or using intel NIC is the only option.

I got the same issue with the BroadCom Nic.

We have replaced the BroadCom Nic with Intel Nic then the issue got resloved.

We didn't find any other way's how to bind the BroadCom Nic to the dpdk of trex.

If you get any solution please inform us.
