[dpdk-users] using the KNI on Amazon EC2

[Cody Doucette]

Is there any way to bring up a KNI on EC2? I seem to be able to create the
interface, assign IP addresses to it, etc, but can't actually activate the
interface by bringing it up using either ifconfig or with a netlink socket
directly.

This line from the KNI guide gives me doubt: "Ethtool is not supported in
i40e and VMs."

Is there any work around to this?
