Target Environment:
Network-Intensive CNFs ( You can only consider CNIs that needs DPDK/SRIOV ). Other CNIs does not apply for Network-Intensive CNFs (Ex: U-plane Network functions of LTE-Core: SGW, PGW)
East-West Traffic. Why Not North-South? (it is already done)
Traffic Generator + Forwarder + Swap: Pods. Consider Set of Topologies.
1. Single Node
2. Multi Node
3. L2 and L3 Traffic. A. For Single Node L2: Done. {Majority of the thesis will focus on this - Highlight issues, limitations, results, patterns}
B. For Single and Multi-Node L3: IPAM to be fully functional.
C. For Multi-Node L2: We need to configure infrastructure switches (which is not possible) What Next:
1. Complete A fully. Including pointers to 'golden configuration': refer to TODO here: https://wiki.anuket.io/display/HOME/2022-02-09+ViNePerf+Agenda+and+Minutes
2. How much we can do with 'B'. Does Prox/T-REx support B? Run Tests (topology-1) without configuring the switches Manually. Is this possible with Prox and T-REx.?
For 2:
1. We need from Prox how to configure L3-Tests. Daniele to setup Toplogy-1 (VPP + Prox) with IPAM, and Luc to help us on how to run tets.
Daniele to ViNePerf: (whenever you find time)
Organization and sharing of the documents:
1. Pod Deployment Files.
2. NAD Files.
3. Prox COnfig FIles for each topology (you will have to create separate folder)
4. T-Rex config files for each topology (you will have to create separate folder)
5. Documentation of the steps (any format - txt, or .md)
