You will need to be familiar with libvirt to try to replicate what openstack does to setup the VM properly: setup 2 virtual interfaces and provide a cloud-init config file. This VM has VPP L3 routing included and that can be enabled/configured using the cloud-init file. How well it will perform will really depends on your virtio network emulation (for example if you use OVS, it will likely not go very fast and start dropping packets very early). Anyway, I can only help you to some extent as this stretches beyond what NFVbench handles.

But I use NFVBench in EXT mode( so without openstack) Br, Peter From: Alec Hothan (ahothan) [mailto:ahot...@cisco.com] Sent: Friday, February 9, 2018 6:31 PM To: Balint, Peter (Nokia - HU/Budapest) <peter.bal...@nokia.com>; opnfv-tech-discuss@lists.opnfv.org Subject: Re: [opnfv-tech-discuss] [nfvbench] testpmd Peter, This is outdated information. With the latest versions of NFVbench, the testpmd VM image is included in the docker container itself (that way we make sure NFVbench always uses the right version of the VM image). May I ask why you want to access this VM image? To use it you will need to pass the proper config file to configure the forwarding dest MAC addresses (this is taken care of by NFVbench through openstack). If use openstack you do not need to manually get the qcow2 image and upload because it is done by NFVbench when using the PVP and PVVP chain types. If you still need the VM qcow2 file, you can simply copy it out from the container using “docker cp” command.
