Hi Francois,

Just a general follow up on the feature patchset review, I think it would be 
great to extend support for an L3 router on the packet path, that would work 
independently of how the devices in the packet path are brought up (either by 
nfvbench using PVP/PVVP or externally with EXT chains). This basically splits 
the code into several parts:

  *   the part that handles traffic on the packet path (including ARP, IP 
addresses…) which works with any mode (EXT, PVP, PVVP)
  *   the part that creates/reuses devices (openstack case only: PVP. PVVP): 
neutron routers, extra networks…

We can limit this first version of the feature to single-chain/VLAN and see 
later whether there is interest in extending to multi-chaining and to VxLAN.

Perhaps add some description on why this feature can be useful or what kind of 
problems/requirements it will address.

Thanks
  Alec

Subject: #nfvbench L3 traffic use case

Hello Alec,

I have just committed my development about L3 traffic use case (NFVBENCH-128). 
I hope this fits with your design approach ☺ Be welcome to ask me if something 
is not clear to you.

For now I only manage 1 PVP chain with neutron routers as loop VM can be 
enlarge and fit our use case. Let me know if you think multi-chains is required 
for this type of traffic.

Best regards,
