Downloading and Installing VPP

If you want to use VPP it can be convenient to install the binaries from existing packages. This guide describes how to pull, install and run the VPP packages.

FD.io VPP packages are stored in Packagecloud.io package repositories. There is a package repository for the latest VPP release packages as well as a package repository associated with each branch in the VPP git repository. The VPP merge jobs which run on Jenkins (https://jenkins.fd.io) for each actively supported git branch uploads packages to packagecloud that are built from the vpp code in the branch.
