Rare project developers

[Frédéric LOUI <>]

Hi !

Not yet.
I’m working on it.
I’ll for sure give try to: rtr-aarch64.tar p4dpdk.bin / p4emu.bin

But I’m super confident as we checked it was working with Bluefield 2 DPU 
during Nvidia GTC hackathon :)

I’ll advise once the new hardware is accessible

Cheers
Frederic
