RFC2544: Pkt throughput L2BD test cases with vhost and vpp link bonding

  • [Top] Network Topologies: TG-DUT1-DUT2-TG 3-node circular topology with single links between nodes.

  • [Enc] Packet Encapsulations: Eth-IPv4 for L2 switching of IPv4. 802.1q tagging is applied on link between DUT1 and DUT2.

  • [Cfg] DUT configuration: DUT1 and DUT2 are configured with VPP link bonding (mode LACP, transmit policy l34) on link between DUT1 and DUT2 and L2 bridge-domain with 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/DUT2 is tested with ${nic_name}.

  • [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.

RFC2544: Pkt throughput L2BD test cases with vhost and vpp link bonding

  • [Top] Network Topologies: TG-DUT1=DUT2-TG 3-node circular topology with single links between TG and DUT nodes and double link between DUT nodes.

  • [Enc] Packet Encapsulations: Eth-IPv4 for L2 switching of IPv4. 802.1q tagging is applied on link between DUT1 and DUT2.

  • [Cfg] DUT configuration: DUT1 and DUT2 are configured with VPP link bonding (mode LACP, transmit policy l34) on link between DUT1 and DUT2 and L2 bridge-domain with 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/DUT2 is tested with ${nic_name}.

  • [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.

RFC2544: Pkt throughput L2XC test cases with vhost

  • [Top] Network Topologies: TG-DUT1-DUT2-TG 3-node circular topology with single links between nodes.

  • [Enc] Packet Encapsulations: Eth-IPv4 for L2 cross connect. 802.1q tagging is applied on link between DUT1 and DUT2.

  • [Cfg] DUT configuration: DUT1 and DUT2 are 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/DUT2 is tested with ${nic_name}.

  • [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.

RFC2544: Pkt throughput L2XC test cases with vhost

  • [Top] Network Topologies: TG-DUT1-DUT2-TG 3-node circular topology with single links between nodes.

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

  • [Cfg] DUT configuration: DUT1 and DUT2 are 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/DUT2 is tested with ${nic_name}.

  • [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.

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 testpmd interconnecting vhost-user interfaces, rxd/txd=1024. DUT1 is tested with ${nic_name}.

  • [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 ${nic_name}.

  • [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.

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 virtio interfaces, rxd/txd=1024. DUT1 is tested with ${nic_name}.

  • [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.
