Provisioning DPDK SRIOV with Server Manager
If you are using Server Manager to provision or reimage target servers, you can also use it to provision and enable DPDK and SRIOV.
The following is an example JSON for bringing up the DPDK vrouter as a virtual function.
In the example, p3p1 and p3p2 are the physical interfaces on the host. The server JSON has these defined with the proper MAC. The p3p1_0 and p3p2_0 are the virtual functions given to vrouter.
