_testpmd_flow_director: + +flow_director_filter +~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ + +The Flow Director works in receive mode to identify specific flows or sets of flows and route them to specific queues. + +Four types of filtering are supported which are referred to as Perfect Match, Signature, Perfect-mac-vlan and +Perfect-tunnel filters, the match mode is set by the ``--pkt-filter-mode`` command-line parameter: + +* Perfect match filters. + The hardware checks a match between the masked fields of the received packets and the programmed filters. + The masked fields are for IP flow. + +* Signature filters. + The hardware checks a match between a hash-based signature of the masked fields of the received packet. + +* Perfect-mac-vlan match filters. + The hardware checks a match between the masked fields of the received packets and the programmed filters. + The masked fields are for MAC VLAN flow. + +* Perfect-tunnel match filters. + The hardware checks a match between the masked fields of the received packets and the programmed filters. + The masked fields are for tunnel flow. + +The Flow Director filters can match the different fields for different type of packet: flow type, specific input set +per flow type and the flexible payload. + +The Flow Director can also mask out parts of all of these fields so that filters +are only applied to certain fields or parts of the fields. + +Different NICs may have different capabilities, command show port fdir (port_id) can be used to acquire the information. + +# Commands to add flow director filters of different flow types:: + +
