2017-12-13trex_learning: Add learning packet option to T-Rex testingChristian Trautman1-0/+9
Adds packet learning option which is available on other Traffic generators as a feature. This adds this feature to the Trex implementation inside of VSPerf. JIRA: VSPERF-547 Change-Id: Iaf4d0721b22eb780c25e29295c112d4fcb47b22c Signed-off-by: Christian Trautman <ctrautma@redhat.com>

2017-09-25trex_prom: Add promiscuous option for trex for SRIOV testsChristian Trautman1-0/+12
Adds option to enable promiscuous mode for Trex traffic generator to allow for SR-IOV tests to work correctly. Trex by default only accepts packets based on destination MAC address matching what is configured on server in /etc/trex-cfg.yaml. This removes that limitation since SR-IOV tests require mac addresses to be modified in the generated packets to correctly route packets to the relevant VFs.

2017-08-31trex: Add support Trex traffic generatorMartin Goldammer1-0/+96
Topology are two physical servers, on first is trex and second is VSPERF. Trex is running in stateless mode this means that on server where is located trex repo is running trex binary file and VSPERF working with server via python API.

2017-04-19ixia: Support of 1 NIC connection to trafficgenMartin Klozik1-0/+8
For some testcases it is useful to have only one connection between traffic generator and DUT. Thus IxNet class was extended to support such connection. Feature is enabled if both IXIA ports are set to the same value. New integration testcase ixnet_pvp_tput_1nic was created to demonstrate this feature. Unused code was removed from 3rd_party/ixia/ixnetrfc2544.tcl to simplify introduction of new features and to speed up IXIA configuration.

2017-04-18xena_verify: Add final verification option to XenaChristian Trautman1-0/+31
Adds final verification option to Xena traffic generator inside VSPerf. Works by running the Xena2544.exe again after the initial run is complete with modified values inside the json file. If the final verify fails it will revert the settings and continue the in a pattern based on if the smart search is enabled.

2017-03-24ixia: Make L3 and L4 headers optionalMartin Klozik1-4/+10
During testing it is sometimes useful to generate pure L2 traffic without L3 or L4 related headers. IxNetwork TCL script was updated to support this option. Generic TRAFFIC array was enhanced by on/off switch for L3 and L4 headers. Thus it can be implemented by other traffic generators in the future, if this feature will prove itself useful.
