- interfaces to another instance of VPP running in bare-metal Linux\r
- Container (LXC) with memif virtual interfaces (Slave side). LXC\r
- runs in a priviliged mode with VPP data plane worker threads\r
- pinned to dedicated physical CPU cores per usual CSIT practice.\r
- Both VPP run the same version of software. This test topology is\r
- equivalent to existing tests with vhost-user and VMs.\r

\r
- - New tested security-groups access-control-lists (acl)\r
- configuration variants include: [iaclNsl] input acl stateless,\r
- [oaclNsl] output acl stateless, [iaclNsf] input acl stateful\r
- a.k.a. reflect, [oaclNsf] output acl stateful a.k.a. reflect,\r
