framework: Add reworked framework to repo
This commit adds the vSwitch Integration Test Framework whose design, based off TOIT, is outlined in the HLD previously made availiable to the community for review. The design of this framework allows developers to add different implementations of components, specifically vSwitches, Traffic Generators, Metrics Collectors and VNFs, easily. The goal of this design is that all testcases should run regardless of what is "under the hood". This commit adds support for running the framework for a phy to phy RFC2544 testcase only. More testcases will be added by the community. vSwitches supported at this time: * Intel DPDK (r) accelerated OpenvSwitch Traffic Generators supported at this time: * IxNet - IxNetwork Implementation * Ixia - IxExplorer Implementation * Dummy - Manual Implementation Metrics Collectors supported at this time: * Linux Metrics No VNFs are supported at this time but the framework outlines how they should be integrated and provides APIs for them to adhere to.

+"""IxNetwork traffic generator model.
+
+Provides a model for an IxNetwork machine and appropriate applications.
+
+This requires the following settings in your config file:
+
+* TRAFFICGEN_IXNET_LIB_PATH
+ IxNetwork libraries path
+* TRAFFICGEN_IXNET_HOST
+ IxNetwork host IP address
+* TRAFFICGEN_IXNET_PORT
+ IxNetwork host port number
+* TRAFFICGEN_IXNET_USER
+ IxNetwork host user name
+* TRAFFICGEN_IXNET_TESTER_RESULT_DIR
+ The result directory on the IxNetwork computer
+* TRAFFICGEN_IXNET_DUT_RESULT_DIR
+ The result directory on DUT. This needs to map to the same directory
+ as the previous one
+
+The following settings are also required. These can likely be shared
+an 'Ixia' traffic generator instance:
+
+* TRAFFICGEN_IXIA_HOST
+ IXIA chassis IP address
+* TRAFFICGEN_IXIA_CARD
+ IXIA card
+* TRAFFICGEN_IXIA_PORT1
+ IXIA Tx port
+* TRAFFICGEN_IXIA_PORT2
+ IXIA Rx port
+
+If any of these don't exist, the application will raise an exception
+(EAFP).
+
+Additional Configuration:
+-------------------------
+
+You will also need to configure the IxNetwork machine to start the IXIA
+IxNetworkTclServer. This can be started like so:
+
+1. Connect to the IxNetwork machine using RDP
+2. Go to:
+
+ Start->
+ Programs ->
+ Ixia ->
+ IxNetwork ->
+ IxNetwork 7.21.893.14 GA ->
+ IxNetworkTclServer
+
+ Pin a shortcut to this application to the taskbar.
+3. Before running it right click the pinned shortcut and go to
+ "Properties". Here change the port number to your own port number.
+ This will be the same value as "TRAFFICGEN_IXNET_PORT" above.
+4. You will find this on the shortcut tab under the heading "Target"
+5. Finally run it. If you see the following error check that you
+ followed the above steps exactly:
+
+ ERROR: couldn't open socket : connection refused
+
+Debugging:
+----------
+
+This method of automation is quite error prone as the IxNetwork API
+does not give any feedback as to the status of tests. As such, it can
+be expected that the user have access to the IxNetwork machine should
+this trafficgen need to be debugged.
