Automated Installation
The process of installing Fastcapa has several steps and involves building DPDK, loading specific kernel modules, enabling huge page memory, and binding compatible network interface cards.
The best documentation is code that actually does this for you. An Ansible role that
performs the entire installation procedure can be found at metron-deployment/roles/fastcapa
. Use this to install Fastcapa or
as a guide for manual installation. The automated installation assumes CentOS 7.1 and is
directly tested against bento/centos-7.1.
