Re: [vpp-dev] [csit-dev] t4-virl3 moved from testing back into production - SSH timouts on VIRL

2018-02-15 Thread Thomas F Herbert
Jan and Ed, I recommended we go back into production when I saw the tests running consistently. However, I did ssh timeouts during my testing. but only when I had more then 3 simulations running simultaneously on VIRL3 with all the tests enabled. I figured that was due to the unusual use c

Avi: You have got to some level with a virtio-user interface, in the backend, it does allow OVS-DPDK (or VPP, but not tested) talked to the container guest with the virtio interface, There was a proposal to merge that interface to VPP community. But it does not fly much with the memif context

Just a note about GTP-U. The implementation uses GTP-U headers to create a tunnel, it is in no way compatible with "real" 3GPP GTP nodes. If you just need a tunnel, don't use GTP. There are plenty of other tunnel protocols (e.g. GRE, VXLAN) that are more widely used. If you want to play with GTP,

Instead of assigning the tunnel endpoint address to an interface, it is also possible to reserve an IP address to a particular tunnel function, by setting the next-index in the corresponding FIB entry/adjacency. We typically do this for the mesh type tunnel solutions, were on some of the we don'

Hi Jakub, A quick refresher on IP Addressing ☺ In the world or tunnels we typically talk about the underlay and the overlay. The underlay will contain the addresses that form the tunnel’s source and destination address (the addresses one sees in the outer IP header) – i.e. the address in ‘crea
