-
-.. versionadded:: 2.6.0
-
-.. warning::
-
-   DPDK pdump support is deprecated in OVS and will be removed in next
-   releases.
-
-pdump allows you to listen on DPDK ports and view the traffic that is passing
-on them. To use this utility, one must have libpcap installed on the system.
-Furthermore, DPDK must be built with ``CONFIG_RTE_LIBRTE_PDUMP=y`` and
-``CONFIG_RTE_LIBRTE_PMD_PCAP=y``. OVS should be built with
-``--enable-dpdk-pdump`` configuration option.
-
-.. warning::
-
-   A performance decrease is expected when using a monitoring application like
-   the DPDK pdump app.
-
-To use pdump, simply launch OVS as usual, then navigate to the ``app/pdump``
-directory in DPDK, ``make`` the application and run like so::
-
-    $ sudo ./build/app/dpdk-pdump -- \
-        --pdump port=0,queue=0,rx-dev=/tmp/pkts.pcap
-
-The above command captures traffic received on queue 0 of port 0 and stores it
-in ``/tmp/pkts.pcap``. Other combinations of port numbers, queues numbers and
-pcap locations are of course also available to use. For example, to capture all
-packets that traverse port 0 in a single pcap file::
-
-    $ sudo ./build/app/dpdk-pdump -- \
-        --pdump 'port=0,queue=*,rx-dev=/tmp/pkts.pcap,tx-dev=/tmp/pkts.pcap'
-
-.. note::
-
-   ``XDG_RUNTIME_DIR`` environment variable might need to be adjusted to
-   OVS runtime directory (``/var/run/openvswitch`` in most cases) for
-   ``dpdk-pdump`` utility if OVS started by non-root user.
-
-Many tools are available to view the contents of the pcap file. Once example is
-tcpdump. Issue the following command to view the contents of ``pkts.pcap``::
-
-    $ tcpdump -r pkts.pcap
-
-More information on the pdump app and its usage can be found in the `DPDK
-documentation`__.
