#. Added VPP performance tests\r
\r
- - **L2BD MAC scale tests**\r
+ - **Container Topologies Orchestrated by K8s with VPP memif tests**\r
\r
- - VPP L2 Bridge-Domain with MAC learning and large size L2FIB (10k,\r
- 100k, 1M MACs), tested in NIC-to-NIC and VM vhost topologies.\r
+ - Added tests with VPP in L2 Cross-Connect and Bridge-Domain\r
+ configurations containers, with service chain topologies orchestrated by\r
+ Kubernetes. Added following forwarding topologies: i) "Parallel" with\r
+ packets flowing from NIC via VPP to container and back to VPP and NIC;\r
+ ii) "Chained" a.k.a. "Snake" with packets flowing via VPP to container,\r
+ back to VPP, to next container, back to VPP and so on until the last\r
+ container in chain, then back to VPP and NIC; iii) "Horizontal" with\r
+ packets flowing via VPP to container, then via "horizontal" memif to\r
+ next container, and so on until the last container, then back to VPP and\r
+ NIC;.\r
\r
- - **Linux Container VPP memif tests**\r
+ - **VPP TCP/IP stack**\r
\r
- - Tests with VPP in L2 Bridge-Domain configuration connecting over\r
- memif virtual interfaces to VPPs running in LXCs;\r
+ - Added tests for VPP TCP/IP stack using VPP built-in HTTP server.\r
+ WRK traffic generator is used as a client-side;\r
\r
- - **Docker Container VPP memif tests**\r
+ - **SRv6 tests**\r
\r
- - Tests with VPP in L2 Cross-Connect configuration connecting over\r
- memif virtual interfaces VPPs running in Docker containers;\r
+ - Initial SRv6 (Segment Routing IPv6) tests verifying performance of\r
+ IPv6 and SRH (Segment Routing Header) encapsulation, decapsulation,\r
+ lookups and rewrites based on configured End and End.DX6 SRv6 egress\r
+ functions;\r
\r
- - **Container Topologies Orchestrated by K8s with VPP memif tests**\r
+ - **IPSecSW tests**\r
\r
- - Tests with VPP in L2 Cross-Connect and Bridge-Domain configurations\r
- connecting over memif virtual interfaces VPPs running in Docker\r
- containers, with service chain topologies orchestrated by Kubernetes;\r
+ - SW computed IPSec encryption with AES-GCM, CBC-SHA1 ciphers, in\r
+ combination with IPv4 routed-forwarding;\r
\r
- - **Stateful Security Groups**\r
+#. Presentation and Analytics Layer\r
\r
- - m-thread m-core VPP stateful and stateless security-groups tests;\r
+ - Added throughput speedup analysis for multi-core and multi-thread\r
+ VPP tests into Presentation and Analytics Layer (PAL) for automated\r
+ CSIT test results analysis;\r
\r
- - **MAC-IP binding**\r
+#. Other improvements\r
\r
- - MACIP input access-lists, single-thread single-core and m-thread\r
- m-core tests;\r
+ - **Framework optimizations**\r
\r
-#. Presentation and Analytics Layer\r
+ - Ability to run CSIT framework on ARM architecture;\r
\r
- - New Presentation and Analytics Layer (PAL) for automated CSIT test\r
- results analysis and presentation, including statistical analysis\r
- of results repeatibility and test report auto-generation;\r
+ - Overall stability improvements;\r
