+DPDK dataplane
+==============
+
+The zebra DPDK subsystem programs the dataplane via rte_XXX APIs.
+This module needs be compiled in via "--enable-dp-dpdk=yes"
+and enabled at start up time via the zebra daemon option "-M dplane_dpdk".
+
+To program the PBR rules as rte_flows you additionally need to configure
+"pbr nexthop-resolve". This is used to expland the PBR actions into the
+{SMAC, DMAC, outgoing port} needed by rte_flow.
