-========================================================
-vACL - Readme
-========================================================
-
-Introduction
-=================
-This application implements Access Control List (ACL). ACL is typically
-used for rule based policy enforcement. It restricts access to a destination
-IP address/port based on various header fields, such as source IP address/port,
-destination IP address/port and protocol. It is built on top of DPDK and
-uses the packet framework infrastructure.
-
-
-----------
-About DPDK
-----------
-The DPDK IP Pipeline Framework provides a set of libraries to build a pipeline
-application. In this document, vACL will be explained in detail with its own
-building blocks.
-
-This document assumes the reader possesses the knowledge of DPDK concepts and
-packet framework. For more details, read DPDK Getting Started Guide, DPDK
-Programmers Guide, DPDK Sample Applications Guide.
-
-Scope
-==========
-This application provides a standalone DPDK based high performance vACL Virtual
-Network Function implementation.
-
-Features
-===========
-The vACL VNF currently supports the following functionality
-  • CLI based Run-time rule configuration.(Add, Delete, List,  Display,  Clear, Modify)
-  • Ipv4 and ipv6 standard 5 tuple packet Selector support.
-  • Multithread support
-  • Multiple physical port support
-  • Hardware and Software Load Balancing
-  • L2L3 stack support for ARP/ICMP handling
-  • ARP (request, response, gratuitous)
-  • ICMP (terminal echo, echo response, passthrough)
-  • ICMPv6 and ND (Neighbor Discovery)
-
-High Level Design
-====================
-The ACL Filter performs bulk filtering of incoming packets based on rules in current ruleset,
-discarding any packets not permitted by the rules. The mechanisms needed for building the
-rule database and performing lookups are provided by the DPDK API.
-http://dpdk.org/doc/api/rte__acl_8h.html
-
-The Input FIFO contains all the incoming packets for ACL filtering. Packets will be dequeued
-from the FIFO in bulk for processing by the ACL. Packets will be enqueued to the output FIFO.
-The Input and Output FIFOs will be implemented using DPDK Ring Buffers.
-
-The DPDK ACL example: http://dpdk.org/doc/guides/sample_app_ug/l3_forward_access_ctrl.html
-#figure-ipv4-acl-rule contains a suitable syntax and parser for ACL rules.
-
-Components of vACL
-=======================
-In vACL, each component is constructed using packet framework pipelines.
-It includes Rx and Tx Driver, Master pipeline, load balancer pipeline and
-vACL worker pipeline components. A Pipeline framework is a collection of input
-ports, table(s),output ports and actions (functions).
-
----------------------------
-Receive and Transmit Driver
----------------------------
-Packets will be received in bulk and provided to LoadBalancer(LB) thread.
-Transimit takes packets from worker threads in a dedicated ring and sent to
-hardware queue.
-
----------------------------
-Master Pipeline
----------------------------
-The Master component is part of all the IP Pipeline applications. This component
-does not process any packets and should configure with Core 0, to allow
-other cores for processing of the traffic. This component is responsible for
-1. Initializing each component of the Pipeline application in different threads
-2. Providing CLI shell for the user control/debug
-3. Propagating the commands from user to the corresponding components
-
----------------------------
-ARPICMP Pipeline
----------------------------
-This pipeline processes the APRICMP packets.
-
----------------------------
-TXRX Pipelines
----------------------------
-The TXTX and RXRX pipelines are pass through pipelines to forward both ingress
-and egress traffic to Loadbalancer. This is required when the Software
-Loadbalancer is used.
-
----------------------------
-Load Balancer Pipeline
----------------------------
-The vACL support both hardware and software balancing for load blalcning of
-traffic across multiple VNF threads. The Hardware load balncing require support
-from hardware like Flow Director for steering of packets to application through
-hardware queues.
-
-The Software Load balancer is also supported if hardware loadbalancing can't be
-used for any reason. The TXRX along with LOADB pipeline provides support for
-software load balancing by distributing the flows to Multiple vACL worker
-threads.
-Loadbalancer (HW or SW) distributes traffic based on the 5 tuple (src addr, src
-port, dest addr, dest port and protocol) applying an XOR logic distributing to
-active worker threads, thereby maintaining an affinity of flows to worker
-threads.
-
----------------------------
-vACL Pipeline
----------------------------
-The vACL performs the rule-based packet filtering.
-
-vACL Topology
-------------------------
-
-::
-
-  IXIA(Port 0)-->(Port 0)VNF(Port 1)-->(Port 1) IXIA
-  operation:
-
-    Egress --> The packets sent out from ixia(port 0) will be sent through ACL to ixia(port 1).
-
-    Igress --> The packets sent out from ixia(port 1) will be sent through ACL to ixia(port 0).
-
-vACL Topology (L4REPLAY)
-------------------------------------
-
-::
-
-  IXIA(Port 0)-->(Port 0)VNF(Port 1)-->(Port 0)L4REPLAY
-
-  operation:
-
-    Egress --> The packets sent out from ixia will pass through vACL to L3FWD/L4REPLAY.
-
-    Ingress --> The L4REPLAY upon reception of packets (Private to Public Network),
-    will immediately replay back the traffic to IXIA interface. (Pub -->Priv).
-
-How to run L4Replay
---------------------
-After the installation of samplevnf
-
-::
-
-     go to <samplevnf/VNFs/L4Replay>
-     ./buid/L4replay -c  core_mask -n no_of_channels(let it be as 2) -- -p PORT_MASK --config="(port,queue,lcore)"
-     eg: ./L4replay -c 0xf -n 4 -- -p 0x3 --config="(0,0,1)"
-
-Installation, Compile and Execution
-=======================================
-Plase refer to <samplevnf>/docs/vACL/INSTALL.rst for installation, configuration, compilation
-and execution.

-vCGNAPT - Readme
-========================================================
-
-Introduction
-==============
-This application implements vCGNAPT. The idea of vCGNAPT is to extend the life of
-the service providers IPv4 network infrastructure and mitigate IPv4 address
-exhaustion by using address and port translation in large scale. It processes the
-traffic in both the directions.
-
-It also supports the connectivity between the IPv6 access network to IPv4 data network
-using the IPv6 to IPv4 address translation and vice versa.
-
-About DPDK
-----------
-The DPDK IP Pipeline Framework provides set of libraries to build a pipeline
-application. In this document, CG-NAT application will be explained with its
-own building blocks.
-
-This document assumes the reader possess the knowledge of DPDK concepts and IP
-Pipeline Framework. For more details, read DPDK Getting Started Guide, DPDK
-Programmers Guide, DPDK Sample Applications Guide.
-
-Scope
-==========
-This application provides a standalone DPDK based high performance vCGNAPT
-Virtual Network  Function implementation.
-
-Features
-===========
-The vCGNAPT VNF currently supports the following functionality:
-  • Static NAT
-  • Dynamic NAT
-  • Static NAPT
-  • Dynamic NAPT
-  • ARP (request, response, gratuitous)
-  • ICMP (terminal echo, echo response, passthrough)
-  • ICMPv6 and ND (Neighbor Discovery)
-  • UDP, TCP and ICMP protocol passthrough
-  • Multithread support
-  • Multiple physical port support
-  • Limiting max ports per client
-  • Limiting max clients per public IP address
-  • Live Session tracking to NAT flow
-  • NAT64
-  • PCP Support
-  • ALG SIP
-  • ALG FTP
-
-High Level Design
-====================
-The Upstream path defines the traffic from Private to Public and the downstream
-path defines the traffic from Public to Private. The vCGNAPT has same set of
-components to process Upstream and Downstream traffic.
-
-In vCGNAPT application, each component is constructed as IP Pipeline framework.
-It includes Master pipeline component, load balancer pipeline component and vCGNAPT
-pipeline component.
-
-A Pipeline framework is collection of input ports, table(s), output ports and
-actions (functions). In vCGNAPT pipeline, main sub components are the Inport function
-handler, Table and Table function handler. vCGNAPT rules will be configured in the
-table which translates egress and ingress traffic according to physical port
-information from which side packet is arrived. The actions can be forwarding to the
-output port (either egress or ingress) or to drop the packet.
-
-vCGNAPT Graphical Overview
-==========================
-The idea of vCGNAPT is to extend the life of the service providers IPv4 network infrastructure
-and mitigate IPv4 address exhaustion by using address and port translation in large scale.
-It processes the traffic in both the directions.

-Components of vCGNAPT
-=====================
-
-In vCGNAPT, each component is constructed as a packet framework. It includes Master pipeline
-component, driver, load balancer pipeline component and vCGNAPT worker pipeline component. A
-pipeline framework is a collection of input ports, table(s), output ports and actions
-(functions).
-
-Receive and transmit driver
-----------------------------
-Packets will be received in bulk and provided to load balancer thread. The transmit takes
-packets from worker thread in a dedicated ring and sent to the hardware queue.
-
-ARPICMP pipeline
-------------------------
-ARPICMP pipeline is responsible for handling all l2l3 arp related packets.
-
-This component does not process any packets and should configure with Core 0,
-to save cores for other components which processes traffic. The component
-is responsible for:
-1. Initializing each component of the Pipeline application in different threads
-2. Providing CLI shell for the user
-3. Propagating the commands from user to the corresponding components.
-4. ARP and ICMP are handled here.
-
-Load Balancer pipeline
-------------------------
-Load balancer is part of the Multi-Threaded CGMAPT release which distributes
-the flows to Multiple ACL worker threads.
-
-Distributes traffic based on the 2 or 5 tuple (source address, source port,
-destination  address, destination port and protocol) applying an XOR logic
-distributing the  load to active worker threads, thereby maintaining an
-affinity of flows to  worker threads.
-
-Tuple can be modified/configured using configuration file
-
-vCGNAPT - Static
-====================
-The vCGNAPT component performs translation of private IP & port to public IP &
-port at egress side and public IP & port to private IP & port at Ingress side
-based on the NAT rules added to the pipeline Hash table. The NAT rules are
-added to the Hash table via user commands. The packets that have a matching
-egress key or ingress key in the NAT table will be processed to change IP &
-port and will be forwarded to the output port. The packets that do not have a
-match will be taken a default action. The default action may result in drop of
-the packets.
-
-vCGNAPT - Dynamic
-===================
-The vCGNAPT component performs translation of private IP & port to public IP & port
-at egress side and public IP & port to private IP & port at Ingress side based on the
-NAT rules added to the pipeline Hash table. Dynamic nature of vCGNAPT refers to the
-addition of NAT entries in the Hash table dynamically when new packet arrives. The NAT
-rules will be added to the Hash table automatically when there is no matching entry in
-the table and the packet is circulated through software queue. The packets that have a
-matching egress key or ingress key in the NAT table will be processed to change IP &
-port and will be forwarded to the output port defined in the entry.
-
-Dynamic vCGNAPT acts as static one too, we can do NAT entries statically. Static NAT
-entries port range must not conflict to dynamic NAT port range.
-
-vCGNAPT Static Topology
-------------------------
-
-::
-
-  IXIA(Port 0)-->(Port 0)VNF(Port 1)-->(Port 1) IXIA
-  operation:
-  Egress --> The packets sent out from ixia(port 0) will be CGNAPTed to ixia(port 1).
-  Igress --> The packets sent out from ixia(port 1) will be CGNAPTed to ixia(port 0).
-
-vCGNAPT Dynamic Topology (L4REPLAY)
-------------------------------------
-
-::
-
-  IXIA(Port 0)-->(Port 0)VNF(Port 1)-->(Port 0)L4REPLAY
-  operation:
-  Egress --> The packets sent out from ixia will be CGNAPTed to L3FWD/L4REPLAY.
-  Ingress --> The L4REPLAY upon reception of packets (Private to Public Network),
-  will immediately replay back the traffic to IXIA interface. (Pub -->Priv).
-
-How to run L4Replay
---------------------
-After the installation of samplevnf:
-
-::
-
- go to <samplevnf/VNFs/L4Replay>
- ./buid/L4replay -c  core_mask -n no_of_channels(let it be as 2) -- -p PORT_MASK --config="(port,queue,lcore)"
-     eg: ./L4replay -c 0xf -n 4 -- -p 0x3 --config="(0,0,1)"
-
-Installation, Compile and Execution
-====================================
-Plase refer to <samplevnf>/docs/vCGNAPT/INSTALL.rst for installation, configuration, compilation
-and execution.

-   - Setup huge pages
-        - For 1G/2M hugepage sizes, for example 1G pages, the size must be specified
-          explicitly and can also be optionally set as the default hugepage
-          size for the system. For example, to reserve 8G of hugepage memory in
-          the form of eight 1G pages, the following options should be passed
-          to the kernel:
-          * default_hugepagesz=1G hugepagesz=1G hugepages=8  hugepagesz=2M hugepages=2048
-        - Add this to Go to /etc/default/grub configuration file.
-        - Append "default_hugepagesz=1G hugepagesz=1G hugepages=8 hugepagesz=2M hugepages=2048"
-            to the GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX entry.

-Introduction
-===============
-The virtual firewall (vFW) is an application implements Firewall. vFW is used
-as a barrier between secure internal and an un-secure external network. The
-firewall performs Dynamic Packet Filtering. This involves keeping track of the
-state of Layer 4 (Transport)traffic,by examining both incoming and outgoing
-packets over time. Packets which don't fall within expected parameters given
-the state of the connection are discarded. The Dynamic Packet Filtering will
-be performed by Connection Tracking component, similar to that supported in
-linux. The firewall also supports Access Controlled List(ACL) for rule based
-policy enforcement. Firewall is built on top of DPDK and uses the packet library.
-
-----------
-About DPDK
-----------
-The DPDK IP Pipeline Framework provides a set of libraries to build a pipeline
-application. In this document, vFW will be explained in detail with its own
-building blocks.
-
-This document assumes the reader possesses the knowledge of DPDK concepts and
-packet framework. For more details, read DPDK Getting Started Guide, DPDK
-Programmers Guide, DPDK Sample Applications Guide.
-
-Scope
-==========
-This application provides a standalone DPDK based high performance vFW Virtual
-Network Function implementation.
-
-Features
-===========
-The vFW VNF currently supports the following functionality:
-  • Basic packet filtering (malformed packets, IP fragments)
-  • Connection tracking for TCP and UDP
-  • Access Control List for rule based policy enforcement
-  • SYN-flood protection via Synproxy* for TCP
-  • UDP, TCP and ICMP protocol pass-through
-  • CLI based enable/disable connection tracking, synproxy, basic packet
-    filtering
-  • Multithread support
-  • Multiple physical port support
-  • Hardware and Software Load Balancing
-  • L2L3 stack support for ARP/ICMP handling
-  • ARP (request, response, gratuitous)
-  • ICMP (terminal echo, echo response, passthrough)
-  • ICMPv6 and ND (Neighbor Discovery)
-
-High Level Design
-====================
-The Firewall performs basic filtering for malformed packets and dynamic packet
-filtering incoming packets using the connection tracker library.
-The connection data will be stored using a DPDK hash table. There will be one
-entry in the hash table for each connection. The hash key will be based on source
-address/port,destination address/port, and protocol of a packet. The hash key
-will be processed to allow a single entry to be used, regardless of which
-direction the packet is flowing (thus changing the source and destination).
-The ACL is implemented as libray stattically linked to vFW, which is used for
-used for rule based packet filtering.
-
-TCP connections and UDP pseudo connections will be tracked separately even if
-theaddresses and ports are identical. Including the protocol in the hash key
-will ensure this.
-
-The Input FIFO contains all the incoming packets for vFW filtering.  The vFW
-Filter has no dependency on which component has written to the Input FIFO.
-Packets will be dequeued from the FIFO in bulk for processing by the vFW.
-Packets will be enqueued to the output FIFO.
-The software or hardware loadbalancing can be used for traffic distribution
-across multiple worker threads. The hardware loadbalancing require ethernet
-flow director support from hardware (eg. Fortville x710 NIC card).
-The Input and Output FIFOs will be implemented using DPDK Ring Buffers.
-
-Components of vFW
-====================
-
-In vFW, each component is constructed using packet framework pipelines.
-It includes Rx and Tx Driver, Master pipeline, load balancer pipeline and
-vfw worker pipeline components. A Pipeline framework is a collection of input
-ports, table(s),output ports and actions (functions).
-
----------------------------
-Receive and Transmit Driver
----------------------------
-Packets will be received in bulk and provided to LoadBalancer(LB) thread.
-Transimit takes packets from worker threads in a dedicated ring and sent to
-hardware queue.
-
----------------------------
-Master Pipeline
----------------------------
-The Master component is part of all the IP Pipeline applications. This component
-does not process any packets and should configure with Core 0, to allow
-other cores for processing of the traffic. This component is responsible for
-1. Initializing each component of the Pipeline application in different threads
-2. Providing CLI shell for the user control/debug
-3. Propagating the commands from user to the corresponding components
-
-------------------
-ARPICMP Pipeline
-------------------
-This pipeline processes the APRICMP packets.
-
----------------
-TXRX Pipelines
----------------
-The TXTX and RXRX pipelines are pass through pipelines to forward both ingress
-and egress traffic to Loadbalancer. This is required when the Software
-Loadbalancer is used.
-
-----------------------
-Load Balancer Pipeline
-----------------------
-The vFW support both hardware and software balancing for load balancing of
-traffic across multiple VNF threads. The Hardware load balancing require support
-from hardware like Flow Director for steering of packets to application through
-hardware queues.
-
-The Software Load balancer is also supported if hardware load balancing can't be
-used for any reason. The TXRX along with LOADB pipeline provides support for
-software load balancing by distributing the flows to Multiple vFW worker
-threads.
-Loadbalancer (HW or SW) distributes traffic based on the 5 tuple (src addr, src
-port, dest addr, dest port and protocol) applying an XOR logic distributing to
-active worker threads, thereby maintaining an affinity of flows to worker
-threads.
-
----------------
-vFW Pipeline
----------------
-The vFW performs the basic packet filtering and will drop the invalid and
-malformed packets.The Dynamic packet filtering done using the connection tracker
-library. The packets are processed in bulk and Hash table is used to maintain
-the connection details.
-Every TCP/UDP packets are passed through connection tracker library for valid
-connection. The ACL library integrated to firewall provide rule based filtering.
-
-------------------------
-vFW Topology
-------------------------
-
-::
-
-  IXIA(Port 0)-->(Port 0)VNF(Port 1)-->(Port 1) IXIA
-  operation:
-  Egress --> The packets sent out from ixia(port 0) will be Firewalled to ixia(port 1).
-  Igress --> The packets sent out from ixia(port 1) will be Firewalled to ixia(port 0).
-
-------------------------------------
-vFW Topology (L4REPLAY)
-------------------------------------
-
-::
-
-  IXIA(Port 0)-->(Port 0)VNF(Port 1)-->(Port 0)L4REPLAY
-  operation:
-  Egress --> The packets sent out from ixia will pass through vFW to L3FWD/L4REPLAY.
-  Ingress --> The L4REPLAY upon reception of packets (Private to Public Network),
-  will immediately replay back the traffic to IXIA interface. (Pub -->Priv).
-
---------------------
-How to run L4Replay
---------------------
-After the installation of samplevnf
-
-::
-
- go to <samplevnf/VNFs/L4Replay>
- ./buid/L4replay -c  core_mask -n no_of_channels(let it be as 2) -- -p PORT_MASK --config="(port,queue,lcore)"
-     eg: ./L4replay -c 0xf -n 4 -- -p 0x3 --config="(0,0,1)"
-
