Server SUT performance depends on server and processor type, hence
results for testbeds based on different servers must be reported
Following is the description of existing production testbeds.
+2-Node AMD EPYC Zen2 (2n-zn2)
+-----------------------------
+
+One 2n-zn2 testbed in in operation in FD.io labs. It is built based on
+two SuperMicro SuperMicro AS-1114S-WTRT servers, with SUT and TG servers
+equipped with one AMD EPYC Zen2 7532 processor each (256 MB Cache, 2.40
+GHz, 32 cores). 2n-zn2 physical topology is shown below.

+SUT server is populated with the following NIC models:
+
+#. NIC-1: x710-DA4 4p10GE Intel.
+#. NIC-2: xxv710-DA2 2p25GE Intel.
+#. NIC-3: cx556a-edat ConnectX5 2p100GE Mellanox.
+
+TG server runs TRex application and is populated with the following
+NIC models:
+
+#. NIC-1: x710-DA4 4p10GE Intel.
+#. NIC-2: xxv710-DA2 2p25GE Intel.
+#. NIC-3: cx556a-edat ConnectX5 2p100GE Mellanox.
+
+All AMD EPYC Zen2 7532 servers run with AMD SMT enabled, doubling the
+number of logical cores exposed to Linux.
