Hi Rama,

The purpose of this feature is to create virtio-net devices that don’t require mlx driver, but use a generic virtio-net driver. Using hot-plug, it is possible to add or delete interfaces for the host as needed without any action in host.
This functionality is available only on BF (DPU).

Regards,
Chen
