+The NTNIC poll mode driver library (**librte_pmd_ntnic**) implements support +for **Napatech NIC** 40/50 Gbps adapters. +This PMD is implemented as a pure software virtual device and must be created +by using the EAL --vdev=parameter (parameters are explained i detail later). +It runs on top of the Napatech NIC Driver Suite that must be installed and +started.
What is the license of this driver suite? IMHO the upstream DPDK shouldn't be a platform for non-free driver suites.
