performance testing scenarios.
For test cases that require DUT (VPP) to communicate with
-VirtualMachines (VMs) / Containers (Linux or Docker Containers) over
+VirtualMachines (VMs) / Linux or Docker Containers (Ctrs) over
vhost-user/memif interfaces, N of VM/Ctr instances are created on SUT1
and SUT2. For N=1 DUT forwards packets between vhost/memif and physical
interfaces. For N>1 DUT a logical service chain forwarding topology is
number of users and ports per user.
- **Container memif connections** - VPP memif virtual interface tests to
interconnect VPP instances with L2XC and L2BD.
- - **Container Orchestrated Topologies** - Container topologies connected over
+ - **Container K8s Orchestrated Topologies** - Container topologies connected over
the memif virtual interface.

- **VMs with vhost-user** - virtual topologies with 1 VM and service chains
of 2 VMs using vhost-user interfaces, with VPP forwarding modes incl. L2
Cross-Connect, L2 Bridge-Domain, VXLAN with L2BD, IPv4 routed-forwarding.
- - **IPSec** - IPSec encryption with AES-GCM, CBC-SHA1 ciphers, in combination
- with IPv4 routed-forwarding.
+ - **IPSecSW** - IPSec encryption with AES-GCM, CBC-SHA1 ciphers, in
+ combination with IPv4 routed-forwarding.
+ - **IPSecHW** - IPSec encryption with AES-GCM, CBC-SHA1 ciphers, in
+ combination with IPv4 routed-forwarding. Intel QAT HW acceleration.
- **IPSec+LISP** - IPSec encryption with CBC-SHA1 ciphers, in combination
with LISP-GPE overlay tunneling for IPv4-over-IPv4.
+ - **VPP TCP/IP stack** - VPP builtin TCP based HTTP server. WRK traffic
+ generator is used.

profiles. The traffic is sent and the statistics obtained using
