Running VPP Agent with host VPP

[ChinmayaAgarwal]

Hi,

Documentation mentions that vpp agent and vpp are running in the docker containers. Can we make vpp agent run with host VPP running on our machine?

Thanks and Regards,
Chinmaya Agarwal.

Yes, it should work. You just need to make sure that the Agent can connect to the VPP process. You can run the Agent in its own container, or start it on the host.

Can we run the Agent also as part of the host process instead of running inside the container?

Both VPP and VPP agent running as processes on the linux machine itself
