Example model & SONiC version:

P4RT service

By default, the P4RT service is disabled.

admin@sonic:~$ sudo config feature state p4rt enabled
admin@sonic:~$ sudo config save -y

An alternative way is editing the config_db.json file, the “FEATURE” section.

    "p4rt": {
        "auto_restart": "enabled",
        "delayed": "False",
        "has_global_scope": "True",
        "has_per_asic_scope": "False",
        "high_mem_alert": "disabled",
        "state": "disabled",
        "support_syslog_rate_limit": "true"
    },

P4RT Table

This command displays the P4RT (P4 Runtime) tables in the application database.

admin@sonic:~$ show p4-table

These tables are used by PINS (P4 Integrated Network Stack) for orchagent to communicate with the P4RT application.

Usage:

show p4-table
show p4-table <table_prefix>

Example:

admin@sonic:~$ show p4-table
{
    "P4RT_TABLE:ACL_TABLE_DEFINITION_TABLE:ACL_ACL_PRE_INGRESS_TABLE": {
        "stage":"PRE_INGRESS",
        "match/dst_ipv6":"{\"bitwidth\":128,\"format\":\"IPV6\",\"kind\":\"sai_field\",\"sai_field\":\"SAI_ACL_TABLE_ATTR_FIELD_DST_IPV6\"}",
        "match/in_port":"{\"format\":\"STRING\",\"kind\":\"sai_field\",\"sai_field\":\"SAI_ACL_TABLE_ATTR_FIELD_IN_PORT\"}",
        "match/is_ipv4":"{\"bitwidth\":1,\"format\":\"HEX_STRING\",\"kind\":\"sai_field\",\"sai_field\":\"SAI_ACL_TABLE_ATTR_FIELD_ACL_IP_TYPE/IPV4ANY\"}",
        "action/set_vrf": "[{\"action\":\"SAI_PACKET_ACTION_FORWARD\"},{\"action\":\"SAI_ACL_ENTRY_ATTR_ACTION_SET_VRF\",\"param\":\"vrf_id\"}]"
    },
    "P4RT_TABLE:ACL_ACL_PRE_INGRESS_TABLE:{\"match/dst_ip\":\"10.53.192.0&255.255.240.0\",\"match/is_ipv4\":\"0x1\",\"priority\":1132}": {
        "action": "set_vrf",
        "param/vrf_id": "p4rt-vrf-80",
        "controller_metadata": "my metadata"
    },
    ...
}

The command supports filtering entries by table name. If a prefix is specified, only p4 table entries matching that prefix will be displayed.

admin@sonic:~$ show p4-table ACL_ACL_PRE_INGRESS_TABLE
{
    "P4RT_TABLE:ACL_ACL_PRE_INGRESS_TABLE:{\"match/dst_ip\":\"10.53.192.0&255.255.240.0\",\"match/is_ipv4\":\"0x1\",\"priority\":1132}": {
        "action": "set_vrf",
        "param/vrf_id": "p4rt-vrf-80",
        "controller_metadata": "my metadata"
    },
    ...
}
