Otherwise the option -``TRAFFICGEN_DUMMY_RESULTS`` will be ignored. - -.. _Ixia: - -Ixia ----- - -VSPERF can use both IxNetwork and IxExplorer TCL servers to control Ixia chassis. -However usage of IxNetwork TCL server is a preferred option. Following sections -will describe installation and configuration of IxNetwork components used by VSPERF. - -Installation -~~~~~~~~~~~~ - -On the system under the test you need to install IxNetworkTclClient$(VER\_NUM)Linux.bin.tgz. - -On the IXIA client software system you need to install IxNetwork TCL server. After its -installation you should configure it as follows: - - 1. Find the IxNetwork TCL server app (start -> All Programs -> IXIA -> - IxNetwork -> IxNetwork\_$(VER\_NUM) -> IxNetwork TCL Server) - 2. Right click on IxNetwork TCL Server, select properties - Under shortcut tab in - the Target dialogue box make sure there is the argument "-tclport xxxx" - where xxxx is your port number (take note of this port number as you will - need it for the 10\_custom.conf file). - - .. image:: TCLServerProperties.png - - 3. Hit Ok and start the TCL server application - -VSPERF configuration -~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ - -There are several configuration options specific to the IxNetwork traffic generator -from IXIA. It is essential to set them correctly, before the VSPERF is executed -for the first time. - -Detailed description of options follows: - - * ``TRAFFICGEN_IXNET_MACHINE`` - IP address of server, where IxNetwork TCL Server is running - * ``TRAFFICGEN_IXNET_PORT`` - PORT, where IxNetwork TCL Server is accepting connections from - TCL clients - * ``TRAFFICGEN_IXNET_USER`` - username, which will be used during communication with IxNetwork - TCL Server and IXIA chassis - * ``TRAFFICGEN_IXIA_HOST`` - IP address of IXIA traffic generator chassis - * ``TRAFFICGEN_IXIA_CARD`` - identification of card with dedicated ports at IXIA chassis - * ``TRAFFICGEN_IXIA_PORT1`` - identification of the first dedicated port at ``TRAFFICGEN_IXIA_CARD`` - at IXIA chassis; VSPERF uses two separated ports for traffic generation. In case of - unidirectional traffic, it is essential to correctly connect 1st IXIA port to the 1st NIC - at DUT, i.e. to the first PCI handle from ``WHITELIST_NICS`` list. Otherwise traffic may not - be able to pass through the vSwitch. - * ``TRAFFICGEN_IXIA_PORT2`` - identification of the second dedicated port at ``TRAFFICGEN_IXIA_CARD`` - at IXIA chassis; VSPERF uses two separated ports for traffic generation. In case of - unidirectional traffic, it is essential to correctly connect 2nd IXIA port to the 2nd NIC - at DUT, i.e. to the second PCI handle from ``WHITELIST_NICS`` list. Otherwise traffic may not - be able to pass through the vSwitch. - * ``TRAFFICGEN_IXNET_LIB_PATH`` - path to the DUT specific installation of IxNetwork TCL API - * ``TRAFFICGEN_IXNET_TCL_SCRIPT`` - name of the TCL script, which VSPERF will use for - communication with IXIA TCL server - * ``TRAFFICGEN_IXNET_TESTER_RESULT_DIR`` - folder accessible from IxNetwork TCL server, - where test results are stored, e.g. ``c:/ixia_results``; see test-results-share_ - * ``TRAFFICGEN_IXNET_DUT_RESULT_DIR`` - directory accessible from the DUT, where test - results from IxNetwork TCL server are stored, e.g. ``/mnt/ixia_results``; see - test-results-share_ - -.. _test-results-share: - -Test results share -~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ - -VSPERF is not able to retrieve test results via TCL API directly. Instead, all test -results are stored at IxNetwork TCL server. Results are stored at folder defined by -``TRAFFICGEN_IXNET_TESTER_RESULT_DIR`` configuration parameter. Content of this -folder must be shared (e.g. via samba protocol) between TCL Server and DUT, where -VSPERF is executed. VSPERF expects, that test results will be available at directory -configured by ``TRAFFICGEN_IXNET_DUT_RESULT_DIR`` configuration parameter. - -Example of sharing configuration: - - * Create a new folder at IxNetwork TCL server machine, e.g. ``c:\ixia_results`` - * Modify sharing options of ``ixia_results`` folder to share it with everybody - * Create a new directory at DUT, where shared directory with results - will be mounted, e.g. ``/mnt/ixia_results`` - * Update your custom VSPERF configuration file as follows: - - .. code-block:: python - - TRAFFICGEN_IXNET_TESTER_RESULT_DIR = 'c:/ixia_results' - TRAFFICGEN_IXNET_DUT_RESULT_DIR = '/mnt/ixia_results' - - **NOTE:** It is essential to use slashes '/' also in path - configured by ``TRAFFICGEN_IXNET_TESTER_RESULT_DIR`` parameter. - * Install cifs-utils package. - - e.g. at rpm based Linux distribution: - - .. code-block:: console - - yum install cifs-utils - - * Mount shared directory, so VSPERF can access test results. - - e.g. by adding new record into ``/etc/fstab`` - - .. code-block:: console - - mount -t cifs //_TCL_SERVER_IP_OR_FQDN_/ixia_results /mnt/ixia_results - -o file_mode=0777,dir_mode=0777,nounix - -It is recommended to verify, that any new file inserted into ``c:/ixia_results`` folder -is visible at DUT inside ``/mnt/ixia_results`` directory. - -.. _`Spirent TestCenter`: - -Spirent Setup -------------- - -Spirent installation files and instructions are available on the -Spirent support website at: - -http://support.spirent.com - -Select a version of Spirent TestCenter software to utilize. This example -will use Spirent TestCenter v4.57 as an example. Substitute the appropriate -version in place of 'v4.57' in the examples, below. - -On the CentOS 7 System -~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ - -Download and install the following: - -Spirent TestCenter Application, v4.57 for 64-bit Linux Client - -Spirent Virtual Deployment Service (VDS) -~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ - -Spirent VDS is required for both TestCenter hardware and virtual -chassis in the vsperf environment. For installation, select the version -that matches the Spirent TestCenter Application version. For v4.57, -the matching VDS version is 1.0.55. Download either the ova (VMware) -or qcow2 (QEMU) image and create a VM with it. Initialize the VM -according to Spirent installation instructions. - -Using Spirent TestCenter Virtual (STCv) -~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ - -STCv is available in both ova (VMware) and qcow2 (QEMU) formats. For -VMware, download: - -Spirent TestCenter Virtual Machine for VMware, v4.57 for Hypervisor - VMware ESX.ESXi - -Virtual test port performance is affected by the hypervisor configuration. For -best practice results in deploying STCv, the following is suggested: - -- Create a single VM with two test ports rather than two VMs with one port each -- Set STCv in DPDK mode -- Give STCv 2*n + 1 cores, where n = the number of ports. For vsperf, cores = 5. -- Turning off hyperthreading and pinning these cores will improve performance -- Give STCv 2 GB of RAM - -To get the highest performance and accuracy, Spirent TestCenter hardware is -recommended. vsperf can run with either stype test ports. - -Using STC REST Client -~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ -The stcrestclient package provides the stchttp.py ReST API wrapper module. -This allows simple function calls, nearly identical to those provided by -StcPython.py, to be used to access TestCenter server sessions via the -STC ReST API. Basic ReST functionality is provided by the resthttp module, -and may be used for writing ReST clients independent of STC. - -- Project page: <https://github.com/Spirent/py-stcrestclient> -- Package download: <http://pypi.python.org/pypi/stcrestclient> - -To use REST interface, follow the instructions in the Project page to -install the package. Once installed, the scripts named with 'rest' keyword -can be used. For example: testcenter-rfc2544-rest.py can be used to run -RFC 2544 tests using the REST interface. - -Configuration: -~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ - -1. The Labserver and license server addresses.
