Traffic going to a representor device can be a result of a miss in the embedded switch (eSwitch) FDB tables
I wanted to know is there any way to calculate the above?? like how many packets have taken the slow path??

Experts please help and thanks in advance.

No hands on tools so far. But you can calculate on code if you use DPDK.

Thanks Xiaofengl for replying. It’s not a DPDK based solution, so can you please help me to understand, will there be any OVS metrics or commands or even VF representator metrics to verify the same??
