What is the Vector Packet Processor (VPP)
|
|
#########################################
|
|
|
|
FD.io's Vector Packet Processor (VPP) is a fast, scalable layer 2-4
|
|
multi-platform network stack. It runs in `Linux Userspace <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User_space>`_
|
|
on multiple architectures including x86, ARM, and Power architectures.
|
|
|
|
VPP's high performance network stack is quickly becoming the network stack of
|
|
choice for applications around the world.
|
|
|
|
VPP is continually being enhanced through the extensive use of plugins. The
|
|
`Data Plane Development Kit (DPDK) <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Data_Plane_Development_Kit>`_
|
|
is a great example of this. It provides some important features and drivers
|
|
for VPP.
|
|
|
|
VPP supports integration with OpenStack and Kubernetes. Network
|
|
management features include configuration, counters, sampling and
|
|
more. For developers, VPP includes high-performance event-logging,
|
|
and multiple kinds of packet tracing. Development debug images
|
|
include complete symbol tables, and extensive consistency checking.
|
|
|
|
Some VPP Use-cases include vSwitches, vRouters, Gateways, Firewalls
|
|
and Load Balancers, to name a few.
