If the two netmap ports use the same netmap memory region .Nm forwards packets without copying the packets payload (zero-copy mode), unless explicitly prevented by the .Fl c flag. l -tag -width Ds t Fl i Ar port Name of the netmap port. It can be supplied up to two times to identify the ports that must be bridged. Any netmap port type (physical interface, VALE switch, pipe, monitor port...) can be used. If the option is supplied only once, then it must be for a physical interface and, in that case, .Nm will bridge the port and the host stack. t Fl b Ar batch-size Maximum number of packets to send in one operation. t Fl w Ar wait-link indicates the number of seconds to wait before transmitting. It defaults to 2, and may be useful when talking to physical ports to let link negotiation complete before starting transmission. t Fl v Enable verbose mode t Fl c Disable zero-copy mode. .El .Sh SEE ALSO .Xr netmap 4 , .Xr pkt-gen 8 , .Xr lb 8 .Sh AUTHORS .An -nosplit .Nm has been written by .An Luigi Rizzo and .An Matteo Landi at the Universita` di Pisa, Italy.
