Questions about the FastPath Feature

Hi Dom Nik,

      Thanks for your feedback. Please find the answer inline.

Is this related to the new fast-path feature?

Yes, This issue already identified and tracked using Jira id NC-51957 which is fixed in upcoming next v18 release.

What could be the reason for the failure?

Your XG firewall ethernet driver is not supported fast-path feature.Please share ethtool -i <your interface name> output.

Is the fast path feature available to SW appliances / virtual machines/home users etc.?

It depends on the ethernet interface driver.

Hi Apurv,

I'm using the virtio-net drivers:

SFVH_SO01_SFOS 18.0.0 EAP3-Refresh1# ethtool -i Port1
driver: virtio_net_nm
version: 1.0.0
firmware-version:
expansion-rom-version:
bus-info: 0000:00:12.0
supports-statistics: no
supports-test: no
supports-eeprom-access: no
supports-register-dump: no
supports-priv-flags: no

Please let me know if there is a better solution for KVM. :-)

Thanks and Best Regards

Dom
