Will work on these requirements and will ensure they are met before plugfest.

Subject: [vsperf] [nfvbench] requiremenst for running nfvbench on vsperf pod12


As discussed in today’s weekly meeting, the requirement to run nfvbench on the 
vsperf pod12 are listed below.

In a nutshell, the goal of this experiment is to see how different benchmark 
results are obtained on the same SUT using different tools: vsperf (with your 
choice of traffic gen) and nfvbench (trex).
This will complement nicely Al’s presentation at the plugfest.

Requirements:

Install docker on the jump host where Trex is running
(unless it is already installed)
I can do that once I get access to the jump host (or anybody feel free to 
install docker)
Docker is needed in order to run the nfvbench container.

Run vsperf to bring up a packet path on the SUT
This requires someone from vsperf team to stage the SUT properly.
I would need to understand more about the looping mechanism used and its 
requirements on traffic packets (mainly how the L3 packets need to look like to 
loop back).
Nfvbench currently sends UDP packets and supports configurable dest MAC and 
src/dest IP, src/dest port.

Provide Trex ports information on the jump host
I need to know which ports are wired to the SUT – and make sure no one else is 
mapped to it.

Thanks

   Alec
