to container, then via "horizontal" memif to next container, and so on\r
until the last container, then back to VPP and NIC;\r
\r
- - **VPP TCP/IP stack**\r
+ - **MRR tests**\r
\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
+ - <placeholder>;\r
\r
- **SRv6**\r
\r
lookups and rewrites based on configured End and End.DX6 SRv6 egress\r
functions;\r
\r
- - **IPSecSW**\r
-\r
- - SW computed IPSec encryption with AES-GCM, CBC-SHA1 ciphers, in\r
- combination with IPv4 routed-forwarding;\r
-\r
#. Presentation and Analytics Layer\r
\r
- Added throughput speedup analysis for multi-core and multi-thread\r
\r
- **Framework optimizations**\r
\r
- - Ability to run CSIT framework on ARM architecture;\r
-\r
- - Overall stability improvements;\r
-\r
- - **NDR and PDR throughput binary search change**\r
-\r
- - Increased binary search resolution by reducing final step from\r
- 100kpps to 50kpps;\r
-\r
- - **VPP plugin loaded as needed by tests**\r
-\r
- - From this release only plugins required by tests are loaded at\r
- VPP initialization time. Previously all plugins were loaded for\r
- all tests;\r
+ - Performance test duration improvements and stability;\r

Known Issues\r
------------\r
\r
| 3 | Lower than expected NDR throughput with | CSIT-571 | Suspected NIC firmware or DPDK driver issue affecting NDR and |\r
| | xl710 and x710 NICs, compared to x520 NICs. | | PDR throughput. Applies to XL710 and X710 NICs. |\r

-| 4 | QAT IPSec scale with 1000 tunnels (interfaces) | VPP-1121 | VPP crashes during configuration of 1000 IPsec tunnels. |\r
-| | in 2t2c config, all tests are failing. | | 1t1c tests are not affected |\r

| | ip4base, l2xcbase, l2bdbase | | MaxRates of -3%..-1% vs. rls1710, affects ip4base, l2xcbase, |\r
| | | | l2bdbase test suites. Not detected by CSIT performance trending |\r
