Dmitry,

Please post the exact blacklist option.  I use the '-b' option all the time with my test box (Dell T620).

Thanks,

Patrick

The problem is that no matter which cards I blacklist with -b option then starting my dpdk application it takes away all the interfaces from the kernel and later returns blacklisted ones. This disrupts my ssh session and I can no longer connect to the server.
