> Queue region configuration
> ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
> 
> The Ethernet Controller X710/XL710 supports a feature of queue regions
> configuration for RSS in the PF, so that different traffic classes or different
> packet classification types can be separated to different queues in different
> queue regions. There is an API for configuration of queue regions in RSS with
> a command line. It can parse the parameters of the region index, queue
> number, queue start index, user priority, traffic classes and so on. Depending
> on commands from the command line, it will call i40e private APIs and start
> the process of setting or flushing the queue region configuration. As this
> feature is specific for i40e only private APIs are used. These new ``test_pmd``
> commands are as shown below. For details please refer
> to :doc:`../testpmd_app_ug/index`.
