> 
> Since the current RETA API cannot handle a variable size, any query/update
> command causes it to be silently updated to RSS_INDIRECTION_TABLE_SIZE
> entries regardless of the original size.
> 
> Also due to the underlying type of the configuration structure, the maximum
> size is limited to RSS_INDIRECTION_TABLE_SIZE (currently 128, at most 256
> entries).

> A port stop/start must be done to apply the new RETA configuration.
