Hi Stanislav, Here is a quick description of CSIT testbeds and environment setup - thanks to Peter for providing that info:-
Current CSIT environment located at LFN datacenter consists of several physical testbeds - see specs here: https://csit.fd.io/cdocs/infrastructure/fdio_dc_testbed_specifications/ Each server is installed by a set of PXE + cloudinit scripts: https://github.com/FDio/csit/tree/master/fdio.infra/pxe/ Once the servers are installed, they are provisioned by a set of ansible rules, based on the role [sut,tg] defined in hosts file: https://github.com/FDio/csit/tree/master/fdio.infra.ansible Completing above steps is pre-requisite for running CSIT. Once the servers are provisioned, topology files have to be created manually: https://github.com/FDio/csit/tree/master/topologies/available Then one should be able to run CSIT framework: export BUILD_TAG=csit-vpp-perf-verify-master-2n-icx export JOB_NAME=csit-vpp-perf-verify-master-2n-icx export GERRIT_EVENT_TYPE=comment-added export GERRIT_EVENT_COMMENT_TEXT="mrrAND1c" pushd csit csit_entry_dir="./resources/libraries/bash/entry" source ${csit_entry_dir}/bootstrap_verify_perf.sh Above can be tailored for any specific target environment. And we can assist with that :) Hopefully this makes sense ...

I hope all the videos will be released soon so everybody can check them out - there were quite a few over the FD.io project. I want to follow up with a question: how can I run CSIT benchmarks on my hardware? Using TRex as a traffic generator (don't have enough money for IXIA :) ) I also cc @vpp-dev as I think it'd be interesting for devs and users to measure the performance on their platforms. -- Best regards Stanislav Zaikin
