      Current approach is to assign to every interface the vrf 10 (vrf holding the hicn routes).

      In some scenario this might not be desired, e.g., the user is aware that only a number of interfaces will received hICN packets.

      The correct approach would implement a configuration parameter, to set in the hicn section in the startup.conf file, that allows the user to specify the set of interface to which assign the vrf 10. For example the section could be

       

      hicn

      { grab_all \{enable/disable}

      grab mpls/dpdk/tap/... //This would allow the user to specify the interface to grab by their type. Multiple lines can occur

      grab <interface_name> //This would allow the user to specify the interface to grab using the interface name. Multiple lines can occur

      }
