Hi' I want to create a Router with complex services like VPLS (Virtual Private LAN Service) I must determine to either use VPP or pure dpdk (extending ip_pipeline example) as dataplane. We developed some features like MPLS push/pop/swap as ip_pipeline beforehand. Also we connected our ip_pipeline project to quagga Earlier.
So, what advantages could i benefit from switching to VPP. Does, dataplane programming become easier? Are some special dataplane operations like MPLS tunneling, ... are prepared in VPP? What can i do for QoS (Rate limiting, ...) with VPP graph nodes. As i understood, VPP makes a wrapper on DPDK and i can not use directly dpdk codes there. So, can i benefit something instead of DPDK QoS Framework?
