Hi Christian, VPP itself exposes the API over a Unix domain socket or via shared memory.
There is no authentication, retransmits, or congestion control. I have tried proxying the UDS across an ssh tunnel and that seemed to work. You could also do something like a grpc proxy to accommodate remote access.
