This test evaluates standard switch performance benchmarks for the scenario where an
Overlay Network is deployed for all paths through the vSwitch. Overlay Technologies covered
(replacing <tech> in the test name) include:
+
- VXLAN
- GRE
- NVGRE
- GENEVE
Performance will be assessed for each of the following overlay network functions:
+
- Encapsulation only
- De-encapsulation only
- Both Encapsulation and De-encapsulation
For each native packet, the DUT must perform the following operations:
+
- Examine the packet and classify its correct overlay net (tunnel) assignment
- Encapsulate the packet
- Switch the packet to the correct port
- For each encapsulated packet, the DUT must perform the following operations:
