 L2 Ethernet Switching
 =====================
 
-Following sections provide a summary of VPP Phy-to-Phy L2 Ethernet switching
-performance illustrating NDR throughput (zero packet loss) and PDR throughput
-(<0.5% packet loss). Performance is reported for VPP running in multiple
-configurations of VPP worker thread(s), a.k.a. VPP data plane thread (s), and
-their physical CPU core(s) placement.
-
-*Title of each graph* is a regex (regular expression) matching all plotted
-throughput test cases, *X-axis labels* are indeces of csit-vpp-perf-1704 jobs
-that created result output files used as data sources for the graph,
-*Y-axis labels* are measured Packets Per Second [pps] values, and the *graph
-legend* identifes the plotted test suites.
-
-.. note::
-
-    Data sources for reported test results: i) FD.io test executor jobs
-    `csit-vpp-perf-1704-all
-    <https://jenkins.fd.io/view/csit/job/csit-vpp-perf-1704-all/>`_ ,
