Hi,

I have started the application on my host machine.And from another terminal
on host machine gave sudo killall -HUP vmdq_dcb_app and sent packets on NIC
card from another machine .But on terminal where vmdq application is
running, I am seeing that no packets are coming.All rows and columns are
0.And where will the VMs will come into picture here for testing this.
Please suggest and correct me if i am doing anything incorrect.
