Test Specifications for measuring NFVI data-plane performance. The data-path includes switching technologies with
physical and virtual network interfaces. The VSPERF architecture is switch and traffic generator agnostic and test

+cases can be easily customized. VSPERF was designed to be independent of OpenStack therefore OPNFV installer scenarios
+are not required. VSPERF can source, configure and deploy the device-under-test using specified software versions and

+processing functions and for evaluation of data-path performance.
The Euphrates release adds new features and improvements that will help advance high performance packet processing
on Telco NFV platforms. This includes new test cases, flexibility in customizing test-cases, new results display
