+ - L4 checksum offload
+description: "Create a pipe device interface, which can pass packets bidirectionally in one side of the pipe to the other side of the pipe. While similar in behavior to a unix pipe, it is not a host-based pipe."
+missing:
+ - does not use hw-address
+ - does not support tagged traffic
+ - API dump filtering by sw_if_index
+state: production
+properties: [API, CLI, STATS, MULTITHREAD]
