Using VPP with Iperf3
|
||
=====================
|
||
|
||
First, disable kernel IP forward in *csp2s22c03* to ensure the host cannot use
|
||
kernel forwarding (all the settings in *net2s22c05* and *csp2s22c04* remain unchanged):
|
||
|
||
.. code-block:: console
|
||
|
||
csp2s22c03$ echo 0 | sudo tee /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward
|
||
0
|
||
csp2s22c03$ sysctl net.ipv4.ip_forward
|
||
net.ipv4.ip_forward = 0
|
||
|
||
You can use DPDK’s device binding utility (./install-vpp-native/dpdk/sbin/dpdk-devbind)
|
||
to list network devices and bind/unbind them from specific drivers. The flag “-s/--status”
|
||
shows the status of devices; the flag “-b/--bind” selects the driver to bind. The
|
||
status of devices in our system indicates that the two 40-GbE XL710 devices are located
|
||
at 82:00.0 and 82:00.1. Use the device’s slots to bind them to the driver uio_pci_generic:
|
||
|
||
.. code-block:: console
|
||
|
||
csp2s22c03$ ./install-vpp-native/dpdk/sbin/dpdk-devbind -s

Start the VPP service, and verify that VPP is running:
|
||
|
||
.. code-block:: console
|
||
|
||
csp2s22c03$ sudo service vpp start
|
||
csp2s22c03$ ps -ef | grep vpp
|
||
root 105655 1 98 17:34 ? 00:00:02 /usr/bin/vpp -c /etc/vpp/startup.conf
|
||
:w
|
||
105675 105512 0 17:34 pts/4 00:00:00 grep --color=auto vpp
|
||
|
||
To access the VPP CLI, issue the command sudo vppctl . From the VPP interface, list
|
||
all interfaces that are bound to DPDK using the command show interface:
|
||
|
||
VPP shows that the two 40-Gbps ports located at 82:0:0 and 82:0:1 are bound. Next,
|
||
you need to assign IP addresses to those interfaces, bring them up, and verify:
|
||
|
||
.. code-block:: console
|
||
|
||
vpp# set interface ip address FortyGigabitEthernet82/0/0 10.10.1.1/24
|
||
vpp# set interface ip address FortyGigabitEthernet82/0/1 10.10.2.1/24
|
||
vpp# set interface state FortyGigabitEthernet82/0/0 up
|
||
vpp# set interface state FortyGigabitEthernet82/0/1 up
|
||
vpp# show interface address
|
||
FortyGigabitEthernet82/0/0 (up):
|
||
10.10.1.1/24
|
||
FortyGigabitEthernet82/0/1 (up):
|
||
10.10.2.1/24
|
||
local0 (dn):
|
||
|
||
At this point VPP is operational. You can ping these interfaces either from *net2s22c05*
|
||
or *csp2s22c04*. Moreover, VPP can forward packets whose IP address are 10.10.1.0/24 and
|
||
10.10.2.0/24, so you can ping between *net2s22c05* and *csp2s22c04*. Also, you can
|
||
run iperf3 as illustrated in the previous example, and the result from running iperf3
|
||
between *net2s22c05* and *csp2s22c04* increases to 20.3 Gbits per second.
|
||
|
||

||

The **show run** command displays the graph runtime statistics. Observe that the
|
||
average vector per node is 6.76, which means on average, a vector of 6.76 packets
|
||
is handled in a graph node.
