RFC2544: Pkt throughput L2BD with vhost and IEEE 802.1Q test cases

  • [Top] Network Topologies: TG-DUT1-TG 2-node circular topology with single links between nodes.

  • [Enc] Packet Encapsulations: Eth-IPv4 for L2 switching of IPv4. IEEE 802.1Q tagging is applied on link between DUT1-if2 and TG-if2.

  • [Cfg] DUT configuration: DUT1 is configured with L2 bridge-domain and MAC learning enabled. Qemu VNFs are connected to VPP via vhost-user interfaces. Guest is running testpmd interconnecting vhost-user interfaces, rxd/txd=1024. DUT1 is tested with Intel-XXV710.

  • [Ver] TG verification: TG finds and reports throughput NDR (Non Drop Rate) with zero packet loss tolerance and throughput PDR (Partial Drop Rate) with non-zero packet loss tolerance (LT) expressed in percentage of packets transmitted. NDR and PDR are discovered for different Ethernet L2 frame sizes using MLRsearch library. Test packets are generated by TG on links to DUTs. TG traffic profile contains two L3 flow-groups (flow-group per direction, 254 flows per flow-group) with all packets containing Ethernet header, IPv4 header with IP protocol=61 and static payload. MAC addresses are matching MAC addresses of NFs nodes interfaces.

  • [Ref] Applicable standard specifications: RFC2544.

RFC2544: Pkt throughput L2BD test cases with vhost

  • [Top] Network Topologies: TG-DUT1-TG 2-node circular topology with single links between nodes.

  • [Enc] Packet Encapsulations: Eth-IPv4 for L2 switching of IPv4.

  • [Cfg] DUT configuration: DUT1 is configured with L2 bridge- domain and MAC learning enabled. Qemu VNFs are connected to VPP via vhost-user interfaces. Guest is running VPP l2xc interconnecting vhost-user interfaces, rxd/txd=1024. DUT1 is tested with Intel-XXV710.

  • [Ver] TG verification: TG finds and reports throughput NDR (Non Drop Rate) with zero packet loss tolerance and throughput PDR (Partial Drop Rate) with non-zero packet loss tolerance (LT) expressed in percentage of packets transmitted. NDR and PDR are discovered for different Ethernet L2 frame sizes using MLRsearch library. Test packets are generated by TG on links to DUTs. TG traffic profile contains two L3 flow-groups (flow-group per direction, 254 flows per flow-group) with all packets containing Ethernet header, IPv4 header with IP protocol=61 and static payload. MAC addresses are matching MAC addresses of the TG node interfaces.

RFC2544: Pkt throughput IPv4 test cases with vhost

  • [Top] Network Topologies: TG-DUT1-TG 2-node circular topology with single links between nodes.

  • [Enc] Packet Encapsulations: Eth-IPv4 for IPv4 routing.

  • [Cfg] DUT configuration: DUT1 is configured with IPv4 routing and two static IPv4 /24 route entries. Qemu VNFs are connected to VPP via vhost-user interfaces. Guest is running VPP ip4 interconnecting vhost-user interfaces, rxd/txd=1024. DUT1 is tested with Intel-XXV710.

  • [Ver] TG verification: TG finds and reports throughput NDR (Non Drop Rate) with zero packet loss tolerance and throughput PDR (Partial Drop Rate) with non-zero packet loss tolerance (LT) expressed in percentage of packets transmitted. NDR and PDR are discovered for different Ethernet L2 frame sizes using MLRsearch library. Test packets are generated by TG on links to DUTs. TG traffic profile contains two L3 flow-groups (flow-group per direction, 253 flows per flow-group) with all packets containing Ethernet header, IPv4 header with IP protocol=61 and static payload. MAC addresses are matching MAC addresses of the TG node interfaces.

  • [Ref] Applicable standard specifications: RFC2544.

RFC2544: Pkt throughput L2XC with vhost abd IEEE 802.1Q test cases

  • [Top] Network Topologies: TG-DUT1-TG 2-node circular topology with single links between nodes.

  • [Enc] Packet Encapsulations: Eth-IPv4 for L2 cross connect of IPv4. IEEE 802.1Q tagging is applied on link between DUT1-if2 and TG-if2.

  • [Cfg] DUT configuration: DUT1 is configured with L2 cross connect and MAC learning enabled. Qemu VNFs are connected to VPP via vhost-user interfaces. Guest is running VPP l2xc interconnecting vhost-user interfaces, rxd/txd=1024. DUT1 is tested with Intel-XXV710.

  • [Ver] TG verification: TG finds and reports throughput NDR (Non Drop Rate) with zero packet loss tolerance and throughput PDR (Partial Drop Rate) with non-zero packet loss tolerance (LT) expressed in percentage of packets transmitted. NDR and PDR are discovered for different Ethernet L2 frame sizes using MLRsearch library. Test packets are generated by TG on links to DUTs. TG traffic profile contains two L3 flow-groups (flow-group per direction, 254 flows per flow-group) with all packets containing Ethernet header, IPv4 header with IP protocol=61 and static payload. MAC addresses are matching MAC addresses of NFs nodes interfaces.

  • [Ref] Applicable standard specifications: RFC2544.

RFC2544: Pkt throughput L2XC test cases with vhost

  • [Top] Network Topologies: TG-DUT1-TG 2-node circular topology with single links between nodes.

  • [Enc] Packet Encapsulations: Eth-IPv4 for L2 switching of IPv4.

  • [Cfg] DUT configuration: DUT1 is configured with L2 cross- connect. Qemu VNFs are connected to VPP via vhost-user interfaces. Guest is running VPP l2xc interconnecting vhost-user interfaces, rxd/txd=1024. DUT1 is tested with Intel-XXV710.

  • [Ver] TG verification: TG finds and reports throughput NDR (Non Drop Rate) with zero packet loss tolerance and throughput PDR (Partial Drop Rate) with non-zero packet loss tolerance (LT) expressed in percentage of packets transmitted. NDR and PDR are discovered for different Ethernet L2 frame sizes using MLRsearch library. Test packets are generated by TG on links to DUTs. TG traffic profile contains two L3 flow-groups (flow-group per direction, 254 flows per flow-group) with all packets containing Ethernet header, IPv4 header with IP protocol=61 and static payload. MAC addresses are matching MAC addresses of the TG node interfaces.

  • [Ref] Applicable standard specifications: RFC2544.
