 ======
 VSPERF is an OPNFV testing project.
 
-VSPERF will develop a generic and architecture agnostic vSwitch testing
-framework and associated tests, that will serve as a basis for validating the
-suitability of different vSwitch implementations in a Telco NFV deployment
-environment. The output of this project will be utilized by the OPNFV
-Performance and Test group and its associated projects, as part of OPNFV
-Platform and VNF level testing and validation.

+VSPERF provides an automated test-framework and comprehensive test suite based on
+industry standards for measuring data-plane performance of Telco NFV switching
+technologies as well as physical and virtual network interfaces (NFVI). The VSPERF
+architecture is switch and traffic generator agnostic and provides full control of
+software component versions and configurations as well as test-case customization.
+
+The Danube release of VSPERF includes improvements in documentation and capabilities.
+This includes additional test-cases such as RFC 5481 Latency test and RFC-2889
+address-learning-rate test. Hardware traffic generator support is now provided for
+Spirent and Xena in addition to Ixia. The Moongen software traffic generator is also
+now fully supported. VSPERF can be used in a variety of modes for configuration and
+setup of the network and/or for control of the test-generator and test execution.
