Secondary processes should run alongside primary process with same DPDK version.
Secondary processes which requires access to physical devices in Primary process, must
- be passed with the same whitelist and blacklist options.
+ be passed with the same allow and block options.
To support these two process types, and other multi-process setups described later,
two additional command-line parameters are available to the EAL:
The EAL also supports an auto-detection mode (set by EAL ``--proc-type=auto`` flag ),
-whereby an DPDK process is started as a secondary instance if a primary instance is already running.

Deployment Models
-----------------
.. note::
Independent DPDK instances running side-by-side on a single machine cannot share any network ports.
- Any network ports being used by one process should be blacklisted in every other process.
+ Any network ports being used by one process should be blocked by every other process.
