RELEASE NOTES
+++++++++++++
OPNFV Fraser Release
====================
Over 30 Jira tickets have been addressed in this release (Jira NFVBENCH-55 to NFVBENCH-78)
The Fraser release adds the following new features:
- support for benchmarking non-OpenStack environments (with external setup and no OpenStack openrc file)
- PVVP packet path with SRIOV at the edge and vswitch between VMs
- support logging events and results through fluentd
Enhancements and main bug fixes:
- end to end connectivity for larger chain count is now much more accurate for large chain count - avoiding excessive drops
- use newer version of TRex (2.32)
- use newer version of testpmd DPDK
- NDR/PDR uses actual TX rate to calculate drops - resulting in more accurate results
- add pylint to unit testing
- add self sufficient and standalone unit testing (without actual testbed)
OPNFV Euphrates Release
=======================
This is the introductory release for NFVbench. In this release, NFVbench provides the following features/capabilities:
- standalone installation with a single Docker container integrating the open source TRex traffic generator
- can measure data plane performance for any NFVi full stack
- can setup automatically service chains with the following packet paths:
- PVP (physical-VM-physical)
- PVVP (physical-VM-VM-physical) intra-node and inter-node
- can setup multiple service chains
- N * PVP
- N * PVVP
- supports any external service chain (pre-set externally) that can do basic IPv4 routing
- can measure
- drop rate and latency for any given fixed rate
- NDR (No Drop Rate) and PDR (Partial Drop Rate) with configurable drop rates
- traffic specification
- any fixed frame size or IMIX
- uni or bidirectional traffic
- any number of flows
- vlan tagging can be enabled or disabled
- user interface:
- CLI
- REST+socketIO
- fully configurable runs with yaml-JSON configuration
- detailed results in JSON format
- summary tabular results
- can send logs and results to one or more fluentd aggregators (per configuration)
