+ <section title="Introduction">
+ <t>Benchmarking Methodology Working Group (BMWG) has traditionally
+ conducted laboratory characterization of dedicated physical
+ implementations of internetworking functions. The Black-box Benchmarks
+ of Throughput, Latency, Forwarding Rates and others have served our
+ industry for many years. Now, Network Function Virtualization (NFV) has
+ the goal to transform how internetwork functions are implemented, and
+ therefore has garnered much attention.</t>
+
+ <t>This memo summarizes the progress of the Open Platform for NFV
+ (OPNFV) project on virtual switch performance characterization,
+ "VSWITCHPERF", through the Brahmaputra (second) release <xref
+ target="BrahRel"/>. This project intends to build on the current and
+ completed work of the Benchmarking Methodology Working Group in IETF, by
+ referencing existing literature. For example, currently the most often
+ referenced RFC is <xref target="RFC2544"/> (which depends on <xref
+ target="RFC1242"/>) and foundation of the benchmarking work in OPNFV is
+ common and strong.</t>
+
+ <t>See
+ https://wiki.opnfv.org/characterize_vswitch_performance_for_telco_nfv_use_cases
+ for more background, and the OPNFV website for general information:
+ https://www.opnfv.org/</t>
+
+ <t>The authors note that OPNFV distinguishes itself from other open
+ source compute and networking projects through its emphasis on existing
+ "telco" services as opposed to cloud-computing. There are many ways in
+ which telco requirements have different emphasis on performance
+ dimensions when compared to cloud computing: support for and transfer of
+ isochronous media streams is one example.</t>
+
+ <t>Note also that the move to NFV Infrastructure has resulted in many
+ new benchmarking initiatives across the industry. The authors are
+ currently doing their best to maintain alignment with many other
+ projects, and this Internet Draft is one part of the efforts. We
+ acknowledge the early work in <xref
+ target="I-D.huang-bmwg-virtual-network-performance"/>, and useful
+ discussion with the authors.</t>
+ </section>
+
+ <section title="Scope">
+ <t>The primary purpose and scope of the memo is to inform the industry
+ of work-in-progress that builds on the body of extensive BMWG literature
+ and experience, and describe the extensions needed for benchmarking
+ virtual switches. Inital feedback indicates that many of these
+ extensions may be applicable beyond the current scope (to hardware
+ switches in the NFV Infrastructure and to virtual routers, for example).
+ Additionally, this memo serves as a vehicle to include more detail and
+ commentary from BMWG and other Open Source communities, under BMWG's
+ chartered work to characterize the NFV Infrastructure (a virtual switch
+ is an important aspect of that infrastructure).</t>
+
+ <t>The benchmarking covered in this memo should be applicable to many
+ types of vswitches, and remain vswitch-agnostic to great degree. There
+ has been no attempt to track and test all features of any specific
+ vswitch implementation.</t>
+ </section>
+
+ <section title="Benchmarking Considerations">
+ <t>This section highlights some specific considerations (from <xref
+ target="I-D.ietf-bmwg-virtual-net"/>)related to Benchmarks for virtual
+ switches. The OPNFV project is sharing its present view on these areas,
+ as they develop their specifications in the Level Test Design (LTD)
+ document.</t>
+
+ <section title="Comparison with Physical Network Functions">
+ <t>To compare the performance of virtual designs and implementations
+ with their physical counterparts, identical benchmarks are needed.
+ BMWG has developed specifications for many network functions this memo
+ re-uses existing benchmarks through references, and expands them
+ during development of new methods. A key configuration aspect is the
+ number of parallel cores required to achieve comparable performance
+ with a given physical device, or whether some limit of scale was
+ reached before the cores could achieve the comparable level.</t>
+
+ <t>It's unlikely that the virtual switch will be the only application
+ running on the SUT, so CPU utilization, Cache utilization, and Memory
+ footprint should also be recorded for the virtual implementations of
+ internetworking functions.</t>
+ </section>
+
+ <section title="Continued Emphasis on Black-Box Benchmarks">
+ <t>External observations remain essential as the basis for Benchmarks.
+ Internal observations with fixed specification and interpretation will
+ be provided in parallel to assist the development of operations
+ procedures when the technology is deployed.</t>
+ </section>
+
+ <section title="New Configuration Parameters">
+ <t>A key consideration when conducting any sort of benchmark is trying
+ to ensure the consistency and repeatability of test results. When
+ benchmarking the performance of a vSwitch there are many factors that
+ can affect the consistency of results, one key factor is matching the
+ various hardware and software details of the SUT. This section lists
+ some of the many new parameters which this project believes are
+ critical to report in order to achieve repeatability.</t>

+ <section title="Flow classification">
+ <t>Virtual switches group packets into flows by processing and
+ matching particular packet or frame header information, or by matching
+ packets based on the input ports. Thus a flow can be thought of a
+ sequence of packets that have the same set of header field values
+ (5-tuple) or have arrived on the same port. Performance results can
+ vary based on the parameters the vSwitch uses to match for a flow. The
+ recommended flow classification parameters for any vSwitch performance
+ tests are: the input port, the source IP address, the destination IP
+ address and the Ethernet protocol type field. It is essential to
+ increase the flow timeout time on a vSwitch before conducting any
+ performance tests that do not measure the flow setup time. Normally
+ the first packet of a particular stream will install the flow in the
+ virtual switch which adds an additional latency, subsequent packets of
+ the same flow are not subject to this latency if the flow is already
+ installed on the vSwitch.</t>

+ <section title="VSWITCHPERF Specification Summary">
+ <t>The overall specification in preparation is referred to as a Level
+ Test Design (LTD) document, which will contain a suite of performance
+ tests. The base performance tests in the LTD are based on the
+ pre-existing specifications developed by BMWG to test the performance of
+ physical switches. These specifications include:</t>
+
+ <t><list style="symbols">
+ <t><xref target="RFC2544"/> Benchmarking Methodology for Network
+ Interconnect Devices</t>
+
+ <t><xref target="RFC2889"/> Benchmarking Methodology for LAN
+ Switching</t>
+
+ <t><xref target="RFC6201"/> Device Reset Characterization</t>
+
+ <t><xref target="RFC5481"/> Packet Delay Variation Applicability
+ Statement</t>
+ </list></t>
+
+ <t>Some of the above/newer RFCs are being applied in benchmarking for
+ the first time, and represent a development challenge for test equipment
+ developers. Fortunately, many members of the testing system community
+ have engaged on the VSPERF project, including an open source test
+ system.</t>
+
+ <t>In addition to this, the LTD also re-uses the terminology defined
+ by:</t>
+
+ <t><list style="symbols">
+ <t><xref target="RFC2285"/> Benchmarking Terminology for LAN
+ Switching Devices</t>
+
+ <t><xref target="RFC5481"/> Packet Delay Variation Applicability
+ Statement</t>
+ </list></t>
+
+ <t/>
+
+ <t>Specifications to be included in future updates of the LTD
+ include:<list style="symbols">
+ <t><xref target="RFC3918"/> Methodology for IP Multicast
+ Benchmarking</t>
+
+ <t><xref target="RFC4737"/> Packet Reordering Metrics</t>
+ </list></t>
+
+ <t>As one might expect, the most fundamental internetworking
+ characteristics of Throughput and Latency remain important when the
+ switch is virtualized, and these benchmarks figure prominently in the
+ specification.</t>
+
+ <t>When considering characteristics important to "telco" network
+ functions, we must begin to consider additional performance metrics. In
+ this case, the project specifications have referenced metrics from the
+ IETF IP Performance Metrics (IPPM) literature. This means that the <xref
+ target="RFC2544"/> test of Latency is replaced by measurement of a
+ metric derived from IPPM's <xref target="RFC2679"/>, where a set of
+ statistical summaries will be provided (mean, max, min, etc.). Further
+ metrics planned to be benchmarked include packet delay variation as
+ defined by <xref target="RFC5481"/> , reordering, burst behaviour, DUT
+ availability, DUT capacity and packet loss in long term testing at
+ Throughput level, where some low-level of background loss may be present
+ and characterized.</t>
+
+ <t>Tests have been (or will be) designed to collect the metrics
+ below:</t>
+
+ <t><list style="symbols">
+ <t>Throughput Tests to measure the maximum forwarding rate (in
+ frames per second or fps) and bit rate (in Mbps) for a constant load
+ (as defined by <xref target="RFC1242"/>) without traffic loss.</t>
+
+ <t>Packet and Frame Delay Distribution Tests to measure average, min
+ and max packet and frame delay for constant loads.</t>
+
+ <t>Packet Delay Tests to understand latency distribution for
+ different packet sizes and over an extended test run to uncover
+ outliers.</t>
+
+ <t>Scalability Tests to understand how the virtual switch performs
+ as the number of flows, active ports, complexity of the forwarding
+ logic&rsquo;s configuration&hellip; it has to deal with
+ increases.</t>
+
+ <t>Stream Performance Tests (TCP, UDP) to measure bulk data transfer
+ performance, i.e. how fast systems can send and receive data through
+ the switch.</t>
+
+ <t>Control Path and Datapath Coupling Tests, to understand how
+ closely coupled the datapath and the control path are as well as the
+ effect of this coupling on the performance of the DUT (example:
+ delay of the initial packet of a flow).</t>
+
+ <t>CPU and Memory Consumption Tests to understand the virtual
+ switch&rsquo;s footprint on the system, usually conducted as
+ auxiliary measurements with benchmarks above. They include: CPU
+ utilization, Cache utilization and Memory footprint.</t>
+
+ <t>The so-called "Soak" tests, where the selected test is conducted
+ over a long period of time (with an ideal duration of 24 hours, but
+ only long enough to determine that stability issues exist when
+ found; there is no requirement to continue a test when a DUT
+ exhibits instability over time). The key performance characteristics
+ and benchmarks for a DUT are determined (using short duration tests)
+ prior to conducting soak tests. The purpose of soak tests is to
+ capture transient changes in performance which may occur due to
+ infrequent processes, memory leaks, or the low probability
+ coincidence of two or more processes. The stability of the DUT is
+ the paramount consideration, so performance must be evaluated
+ periodically during continuous testing, and this results in use of
+ <xref target="RFC2889"/> Frame Rate metrics instead of <xref
+ target="RFC2544"/> Throughput (which requires stopping traffic to
+ allow time for all traffic to exit internal queues), for
+ example.</t>

-Test Steps
-----------
-
-Execution of integration tests are done on a step by step work flow starting
-with step 0 as defined inside the test case. Each step of the test increments
-the step number by one which is indicated in the log.
-
-.. code-block:: console
-
- (testcases.integration) - Step 1 - 'vswitch add_switch ['int_br1']' ... OK
-
-Each step in the test case is validated. If a step does not pass validation the
-test will fail and terminate. The test will continue until a failure is detected
-or all steps pass. A csv report file is generated after a test completes with an
-OK or FAIL result.
-
-Test objects and their functions
---------------------------------
-
-Every test step can call a function of one of the supported test objects. The list
-of supported objects and their most common functions follows:
-

- .. code-block:: python
-
- ['wait']
-
-Test Macros
------------
-
-Test profiles can include macros as part of the test step. Each step in the
-profile may return a value such as a port name. Recall macros use #STEP to
-indicate the recalled value inside the return structure. If the method the
-test step calls returns a value it can be later recalled, for example:
-
-.. code-block:: python
-
- {
- "Name": "vswitch_add_del_vport",
- "Deployment": "clean",
- "Description": "vSwitch - add and delete virtual port",
- "TestSteps": [
- ['vswitch', 'add_switch', 'int_br0'], # STEP 0
- ['vswitch', 'add_vport', 'int_br0'], # STEP 1
- ['vswitch', 'del_port', 'int_br0', '#STEP[1][0]'], # STEP 2
- ['vswitch', 'del_switch', 'int_br0'], # STEP 3
- ]

-This test profile uses the vswitch add_vport method which returns a string
-value of the port added. This is later called by the del_port method using the
-name from step 1.
-
-It is also possible to use negative indexes in step macros. In that case
-``#STEP[-1]`` will refer to the result from previous step, ``#STEP[-2]``
-will refer to result of step called before previous step, etc. It means,
-that you could change ``STEP 2`` from previous example to achieve the same
-functionality:
-
-.. code-block:: python
-
- ['vswitch', 'del_port', 'int_br0', '#STEP[-1][0]'], # STEP 2
-
-Also commonly used steps can be created as a separate profile.
-
-.. code-block:: python
-
- STEP_VSWITCH_PVP_INIT = [
- ['vswitch', 'add_switch', 'int_br0'], # STEP 0

-HelloWorld and other basic Testcases
-------------------------------------
-
-The following examples are for demonstration purposes.
-You can run them by copying and pasting into the
-conf/integration/01_testcases.conf file.
-A command-line instruction is shown at the end of each
-example.
-
-HelloWorld
-^^^^^^^^^^
-
-The first example is a HelloWorld testcase.
-It simply creates a bridge with 2 physical ports, then sets up a flow to drop
-incoming packets from the port that was instantiated at the STEP #1.
-There's no interaction with the traffic generator.
-Then the flow, the 2 ports and the bridge are deleted.
-'add_phy_port' method creates a 'dpdk' type interface that will manage the
-physical port. The string value returned is the port name that will be referred
-by 'del_port' later on.

-
-Specify a Flow by the IP address
-^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
-
-The next example shows how to explicitly set up a flow by specifying a
-destination IP address.
-All packets received from the port created at STEP #1 that have a destination
-IP address = 90.90.90.90 will be forwarded to the port created at the STEP #2.

-Multistream feature
-^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
-

+Step driven tests
+=================
+
+In general, test scenarios are defined by a ``deployment`` used in the particular
+test case definition. The chosen deployment scenario will take care of the vSwitch
+configuration, deployment of VNFs and it can also affect configuration of a traffic
+generator. In order to allow a more flexible way of testcase scripting, VSPERF supports
+a detailed step driven testcase definition. It can be used to configure and
+program vSwitch, deploy and terminate VNFs, execute a traffic generator,
+modify a VSPERF configuration, execute external commands, etc.
+
+Execution of step driven tests is done on a step by step work flow starting
+with step 0 as defined inside the test case. Each step of the test increments
+the step number by one which is indicated in the log.
+
+.. code-block:: console
+
+ (testcases.integration) - Step 0 'vswitch add_vport ['br0']' start
+
+Step driven tests can be used for both performance and integration testing.
+In case of integration test, each step in the test case is validated. If a step
+does not pass validation the test will fail and terminate. The test will continue
+until a failure is detected or all steps pass. A csv report file is generated after
+a test completes with an OK or FAIL result.
+
+In case of performance test, the validation of steps is not performed and
+standard output files with results from traffic generator and underlying OS
+details are generated by vsperf.
+
+Step driven testcases can be used in two different ways:
+
+ # description of full testcase - in this case ``clean`` deployment is used
+ to indicate that vsperf should neither configure vSwitch nor deploy any VNF.
+ Test shall perform all required vSwitch configuration and programming and
+ deploy required number of VNFs.
+
+ # modification of existing deployment - in this case, any of supported
+ deployments can be used to perform initial vSwitch configuration and
+ deployment of VNFs. Additional actions defined by TestSteps can be used
+ to alter vSwitch configuration or deploy additional VNFs. After the last
+ step is processed, the test execution will continue with traffic execution.
+
+Test objects and their functions
+--------------------------------
+
+Every test step can call a function of one of the supported test objects. The list
+of supported objects and their most common functions follows:
+
+ * ``vswitch`` - provides functions for vSwitch configuration
+
+ List of supported functions:
+
+ * ``add_switch br_name`` - creates a new switch (bridge) with given ``br_name``
+ * ``del_switch br_name`` - deletes switch (bridge) with given ``br_name``
+ * ``add_phy_port br_name`` - adds a physical port into bridge specified by ``br_name``
+ * ``add_vport br_name`` - adds a virtual port into bridge specified by ``br_name``
+ * ``del_port br_name port_name`` - removes physical or virtual port specified by
+ ``port_name`` from bridge ``br_name``
+ * ``add_flow br_name flow`` - adds flow specified by ``flow`` dictionary into
+ the bridge ``br_name``; Content of flow dictionary will be passed to the vSwitch.
+ In case of Open vSwitch it will be passed to the ``ovs-ofctl add-flow`` command.
+ Please see Open vSwitch documentation for the list of supported flow parameters.
+ * ``del_flow br_name [flow]`` - deletes flow specified by ``flow`` dictionary from
+ bridge ``br_name``; In case that optional parameter ``flow`` is not specified
+ or set to an empty dictionary ``{}``, then all flows from bridge ``br_name``
+ will be deleted.
+ * ``dump_flows br_name`` - dumps all flows from bridge specified by ``br_name``
+ * ``enable_stp br_name`` - enables Spanning Tree Protocol for bridge ``br_name``
+ * ``disable_stp br_name`` - disables Spanning Tree Protocol for bridge ``br_name``
+ * ``enable_rstp br_name`` - enables Rapid Spanning Tree Protocol for bridge ``br_name``
+ * ``disable_rstp br_name`` - disables Rapid Spanning Tree Protocol for bridge ``br_name``

+
+ ['vswitch', 'enable_rstp', 'int_br0']
+
+ * ``vnf[ID]`` - provides functions for deployment and termination of VNFs; Optional
+ alfanumerical ``ID`` is used for VNF identification in case that testcase
+ deploys multiple VNFs.
+
+ List of supported functions:
+
+ * ``start`` - starts a VNF based on VSPERF configuration
+ * ``stop`` - gracefully terminates given VNF

+
+Test Macros
+-----------
+
+Test profiles can include macros as part of the test step. Each step in the
+profile may return a value such as a port name. Recall macros use #STEP to
+indicate the recalled value inside the return structure. If the method the
+test step calls returns a value it can be later recalled, for example:
+
+.. code-block:: python
+
+ {
+ "Name": "vswitch_add_del_vport",
+ "Deployment": "clean",
+ "Description": "vSwitch - add and delete virtual port",
+ "TestSteps": [
+ ['vswitch', 'add_switch', 'int_br0'], # STEP 0
+ ['vswitch', 'add_vport', 'int_br0'], # STEP 1
+ ['vswitch', 'del_port', 'int_br0', '#STEP[1][0]'], # STEP 2
+ ['vswitch', 'del_switch', 'int_br0'], # STEP 3
+ ]
+ }
+
+This test profile uses the vswitch add_vport method which returns a string
+value of the port added. This is later called by the del_port method using the
+name from step 1.
+
+It is also possible to use negative indexes in step macros. In that case
+``#STEP[-1]`` will refer to the result from previous step, ``#STEP[-2]``
+will refer to result of step called before previous step, etc. It means,
+that you could change ``STEP 2`` from previous example to achieve the same
+functionality:
+
+.. code-block:: python
+
+ ['vswitch', 'del_port', 'int_br0', '#STEP[-1][0]'], # STEP 2
+
+Also commonly used steps can be created as a separate profile.
+
+.. code-block:: python
+
+ STEP_VSWITCH_PVP_INIT = [
+ ['vswitch', 'add_switch', 'int_br0'], # STEP 0
+ ['vswitch', 'add_phy_port', 'int_br0'], # STEP 1
+ ['vswitch', 'add_phy_port', 'int_br0'], # STEP 2
+ ['vswitch', 'add_vport', 'int_br0'], # STEP 3
+ ['vswitch', 'add_vport', 'int_br0'], # STEP 4
+ ]
+
+This profile can then be used inside other testcases
+
+.. code-block:: python
+
+ {
+ "Name": "vswitch_pvp",
+ "Deployment": "clean",
+ "Description": "vSwitch - configure switch and one vnf",

+HelloWorld and other basic Testcases
+------------------------------------
+
+The following examples are for demonstration purposes.
+You can run them by copying and pasting into the
+conf/integration/01_testcases.conf file.
+A command-line instruction is shown at the end of each
+example.
+
+HelloWorld
+^^^^^^^^^^
+
+The first example is a HelloWorld testcase.
+It simply creates a bridge with 2 physical ports, then sets up a flow to drop
+incoming packets from the port that was instantiated at the STEP #1.
+There's no interaction with the traffic generator.
+Then the flow, the 2 ports and the bridge are deleted.
+'add_phy_port' method creates a 'dpdk' type interface that will manage the
+physical port. The string value returned is the port name that will be referred
+by 'del_port' later on.

+
+ },
+
+To run HelloWorld test:
+
+ .. code-block:: console
+
+ ./vsperf --conf-file user_settings.py --integration HelloWorld
+
+Specify a Flow by the IP address
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+The next example shows how to explicitly set up a flow by specifying a
+destination IP address.
+All packets received from the port created at STEP #1 that have a destination
+IP address = 90.90.90.90 will be forwarded to the port created at the STEP #2.

+
+Multistream feature
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+The next testcase uses the multistream feature.
+The traffic generator will send packets with different UDP ports.
+That is accomplished by using "Stream Type" and "MultiStream" keywords.
+4 different flows are set to forward all incoming packets.

+
+This example launches a 1st VM in a PVP topology, then the VM is replaced
+by another VM.

+This is an example of modification of a standard deployment scenario with additional TestSteps.
+Standard PVVP scenario is used to configure a vSwitch and to deploy two VNFs connected

+already configured VNFs. Traffic generator is instructed (by Multistream feature) to send
+two separate traffic streams. One stream will be sent to the standalone VNF and second
+to two chained VNFs.

+Overriding values defined in configuration files
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+The configuration items can be overridden by command line argument
+``--test-params``. In this case, the configuration items and
+their values should be passed in form of ``item=value`` and separated
+by semicolon.
+
+Example:
+

+ "GUEST_LOOPBACK=['testpmd','l2fwd']" pvvp_tput
+
+The second option is to override configuration items by ``Parameters`` section
+of the test case definition. The configuration items can be added into ``Parameters``
+dictionary with their new values. These values will override values defined in
+configuration files or specified by ``--test-params`` command line argument.

+section of test case definition. It is also forbidden to redefine a value of
