Usually called + ``tc_prox__-.yaml`` where + + * is either ``baremetal`` or ``heat_context`` + * is the a one or 2 word description of the test. + * is the number of ports used + + Example tests ``tc_prox_baremetal_l2fwd-2.yaml`` or + ``tc_prox_heat_context_vpe-4.yaml``. This file describes the components + of the test, in the case of openstack the network description and + server descriptions, in the case of baremetal the hardware + description location. It also contains the name of the Traffic Generator, the SUT config file + and the traffic profile description, all described below. See nsb-test-description-label_ + +* Traffic Profile file. Example ``prox_binsearch.yaml``. This describes the packet size, tolerated + loss, initial line rate to start traffic at, test interval etc See nsb-traffic-profile-label_ + +* Traffic Generator Config file. Usually called ``gen_-.cfg``. + + This describes the activity of the traffic generator + + * What each core of the traffic generator does, + * The packet of data sent by a core on a port of the traffic generator + to the system under test + * What core is used to wait on what port for data from the system + under test. + + Example traffic generator config file ``gen_l2fwd-4.cfg`` + See nsb-traffic-generator-label_ + +* SUT Config file.

These are test specific files and will be +covered later. + +.. _nsb-test-description-label: + +**Test Description File** + +Here we will discuss the test description for both +baremetal and openstack. + +*Test Description File for Baremetal* +------------------------------------- + +This section will introduce the meaning of the Test case description +file. We will use ``tc_prox_baremetal_l2fwd-2.yaml`` as an example to +show you how to understand the test description file. + +.. image:: images/PROX_Test_BM_Script.png + :width: 800px + :alt: NSB PROX Test Description File + +Now let's examine the components of the file in detail + +1. ``traffic_profile`` - This specifies the traffic profile for the + test. In this case ``prox_binsearch.yaml`` is used. See nsb-traffic-profile-label_ + +2. ``topology`` - This is either ``prox-tg-topology-1.yaml`` or + ``prox-tg-topology-2.yaml`` or ``prox-tg-topology-4.yaml`` + depending on number of ports required. + +3. ``nodes`` - This names the Traffic Generator and the System + under Test. Does not need to change. + +4. ``prox_path`` - Location of the Prox executable on the traffic + generator (Either baremetal or Openstack Virtual Machine) + +5. ``prox_config`` - This is the ``SUT Config File``. + In this case it is ``handle_l2fwd-2.cfg`` + + A number of additional parameters can be added. This example + is taken from VPE:: + + options: + vnf__0: + prox_path: /opt/nsb_bin/prox + prox_config: ``configs/handle_vpe-4.cfg`` + prox_args: + ``-t``: ```` + prox_files: + ``configs/vpe_ipv4.lua`` : ```` + ``configs/vpe_dscp.lua`` : ```` + ``configs/vpe_cpe_table.lua`` : ```` + ``configs/vpe_user_table.lua`` : ```` + ``configs/vpe_rules.lua`` : ```` + prox_generate_parameter: True + + ``prox_files`` - this specified that a number of addition files + need to be provided for the test to run correctly. This files + could provide routing information,hashing information or a + hashing algorithm and ip/mac information. + + ``prox_generate_parameter`` - this specifies that the NSB application + is required to provide information to the nsb Prox in the form + of a file called ``parameters.lua``, which contains information + retrieved from either the hardware or the openstack configuration. + +6. ``prox_args`` - this specifies the command line arguments to start + prox. See `prox command line`_. + +7. ``prox_config`` - This specifies the Traffic Generator config file. + +8. ``runner`` - This is set to ``Duration`` - This specified that the + test run for a set duration. Other runner types are available + but it is recommend to use ``Duration`` + +9. ``context`` - This is ``context`` for a 2 port Baremetal configuration. + If a 4 port configuration was required then file + ``prox-baremetal-4.yaml`` would be used. This is the NSB Prox + baremetal configuration file. + +.. _nsb-traffic-profile-label: + +*Traffic Profile file* +---------------------- + +This describes the details of the traffic flow. In this case ``prox_binsearch.yaml`` is used. + +.. image:: images/PROX_Traffic_profile.png + :width: 800px + :alt: NSB PROX Traffic Profile + + +1. ``name`` - The name of the traffic profile. This name should match the name specified in the + ``traffic_profile`` field in the Test Description File. + +2. ``traffic_type`` - This specifies the type of traffic pattern generated, This name matches + class name of the traffic generator See:: + + network_services/traffic_profile/prox_binsearch.py class ProxBinSearchProfile(ProxProfile) + + In this case it lowers the traffic rate until the number of packets + sent is equal to the number of packets received (plus a + tolerated loss). Once it achieves this it increases the traffic + rate in order to find the highest rate with no traffic loss. + + Custom traffic types can be created by creating a new traffic profile class. + +3. ``tolerated_loss`` - This specifies the percentage of packets that can be lost/dropped before + we declare success or failure. Success is Transmitted-Packets from Traffic Generator is greater than or equal to + packets received by Traffic Generator plus tolerated loss. + +4. ``test_precision`` - This specifies the precision of the test results. For some tests the success criteria + may never be achieved because the test precision may be greater than the successful throughput. For finer + results increase the precision by making this value smaller. + +5. ``packet_sizes`` - This specifies the range of packets size this test is run for. + +6. ``duration`` - This specifies the sample duration that the test uses to check for success or failure. + +7. ``lower_bound`` - This specifies the test initial lower bound sample rate. On success this value is increased. + +8. ``upper_bound`` - This specifies the test initial upper bound sample rate. On success this value is decreased. + +Other traffic profiles exist eg prox_ACL.yaml which does not +compare what is received with what is transmitted. It just +sends packet at max rate. + +It is possible to create custom traffic profiles with by +creating new file in the same folder as prox_binsearch.yaml. +See this prox_vpe.yaml as example:: + + schema: ``nsb:traffic_profile:0.1`` + + name: prox_vpe + description: Prox vPE traffic profile + + traffic_profile: + traffic_type: ProxBinSearchProfile + tolerated_loss: 100.0 #0.001 + test_precision: 0.01 + # The minimum size of the Ethernet frame for the vPE test is 68 bytes. + packet_sizes: [68] + duration: 5 + lower_bound: 0.0 + upper_bound: 100.0 + +*Test Description File for Openstack* +------------------------------------- + +We will use ``tc_prox_heat_context_l2fwd-2.yaml`` as a example to show +you how to understand the test description file. + +.. image:: images/PROX_Test_HEAT_Script.png + :width: 800px + :alt: NSB PROX Test Description File + +Now lets examine the components of the file in detail + +Sections 1 to 8 are exactly the same in Baremetal and in Heat. Section +``9`` is replaced with sections A to F. Section 9 was for a baremetal +configuration file. This has no place in a heat configuration. + +A. ``image`` - yardstick-samplevnfs. This is the name of the image + created during the installation of NSB. This is fixed. + +B. ``flavor`` - The flavor is created dynamically. However we could + use an already existing flavor if required. In that case the + flavor would be named:: + + flavor: yardstick-flavor + +C. ``extra_specs`` - This allows us to specify the number of + cores sockets and hyperthreading assigned to it. In this case + we have 1 socket with 10 codes and no hyperthreading enabled. + +D. ``placement_groups`` - default. Do not change for NSB PROX. + +E. ``servers`` - ``tg_0`` is the traffic generator and ``vnf_0`` + is the system under test. + +F. ``networks`` - is composed of a management network labeled ``mgmt`` + and one uplink network labeled ``uplink_0`` and one downlink + network labeled ``downlink_0`` for 2 ports. If this was a 4 port + configuration there would be 2 extra downlink ports. See this + example from a 4 port l2fwd test.:: + + networks: + mgmt: + cidr: '10.0.1.0/24' + uplink_0: + cidr: '10.0.2.0/24' + gateway_ip: 'null' + port_security_enabled: False + enable_dhcp: 'false' + downlink_0: + cidr: '10.0.3.0/24' + gateway_ip: 'null' + port_security_enabled: False + enable_dhcp: 'false' + downlink_1: + cidr: '10.0.4.0/24' + gateway_ip: 'null' + port_security_enabled: False + enable_dhcp: 'false' + downlink_2: + cidr: '10.0.5.0/24' + gateway_ip: 'null' + port_security_enabled: False + enable_dhcp: 'false' + +.. _nsb-traffic-generator-label: + +*Traffic Generator Config file* +------------------------------- + +This section will describe the traffic generator config file. +This is the same for both baremetal and heat. See this example +of ``gen_l2fwd_multiflow-2.cfg`` to explain the options. + +.. image:: images/PROX_Gen_2port_cfg.png + :width: 1400px + :alt: NSB PROX Gen Config File + +The configuration file is divided into multiple sections, each +of which is used to define some parameters and options.:: + + [eal options] + [variables] + [port 0] + [port 1] + [port .] + [port Z] + [defaults] + [global] + [core 0] + [core 1] + [core 2] + [core .] + [core Z] + +See `prox options`_ for details + +Now let's examine the components of the file in detail + +1. ``[eal options]`` - This specified the EAL (Environmental + Abstraction Layer) options. These are default values and + are not changed. See `dpdk wiki page`_. + +2. ``[variables]`` - This section contains variables, as + the name suggests. Variables for Core numbers, mac + addresses, ip addresses etc. They are assigned as a + ``key = value`` where the key is used in place of the value. + + .. caution:: + A special case for valuables with a value beginning with + ``@@``. These values are dynamically updated by the NSB + application at run time. Values like MAC address, + IP Address etc. + +3. ``[port 0]`` - This section describes the DPDK Port. The number + following the keyword ``port`` usually refers to the DPDK Port + Id. usually starting from ``0``. Because you can have multiple + ports this entry usually repeated. Eg. For a 2 port setup + ``[port0]`` and ``[port 1]`` and for a 4 port setup ``[port 0]``, + ``[port 1]``, ``[port 2]`` and ``[port 3]``:: + + [port 0] + name=p0 + mac=hardware + rx desc=2048 + tx desc=2048 + promiscuous=yes + + a. In this example ``name = p0`` assigned the name ``p0`` to the + port. Any name can be assigned to a port. + b. ``mac=hardware`` sets the MAC address assigned by the hardware + to data from this port. + c. ``rx desc=2048`` sets the number of available descriptors to + allocate for receive packets. This can be changed and can + effect performance. + d. ``tx desc=2048`` sets the number of available descriptors to + allocate for transmit packets. This can be changed and can + effect performance. + e. ``promiscuous=yes`` this enables promiscuous mode for this port. + +4. ``[defaults]`` - Here default operations and settings can be over + written. In this example ``mempool size=4K`` the number of mbufs + per task is altered. Altering this value could effect + performance. See `prox options`_ for details. + +5. ``[global]`` - Here application wide setting are supported. Things + like application name, start time, duration and memory + configurations can be set here. In this example.:: + + [global] + start time=5 + name=Basic Gen + + a. ``start time=5`` Time is seconds after which average + stats will be started. + b. ``name=Basic Gen`` Name of the configuration. + +6. ``[core 0]`` - This core is designated the master core. Every + Prox application must have a master core. The master mode must + be assigned to exactly one task, running alone on one core.:: + + [core 0] + mode=master + +7. ``[core 1]`` - This describes the activity on core 1. Cores can + be configured by means of a set of [core #] sections, where + # represents either: + + a. an absolute core number: e.g. on a 10-core, dual socket + system with hyper-threading, + cores are numbered from 0 to 39. + + b. PROX allows a core to be identified by a core number, the + letter 's', and a socket number. + + It is possible to write a baremetal and an openstack test which use + the same traffic generator config file and SUT config file. + In this case it is advisable not to use physical + core numbering. + + However it is also possible to write NSB Prox tests that + have been optimized for a particular hardware configuration. + In this case it is advisable to use the core numbering. + It is up to the user to make sure that cores from + the right sockets are used (i.e. from the socket on which the NIC + is attached to), to ensure good performance (EPA). + + Each core can be assigned with a set of tasks, each running + one of the implemented packet processing modes.:: + + [core 1] + name=p0 + task=0 + mode=gen + tx port=p0 + bps=1250000000 + ; Ethernet + IP + UDP + pkt inline=${sut_mac0} 70 00 00 00 00 01 08 00 45 00 00 1c 00 01 00 00 40 11 f7 7d 98 10 64 01 98 10 64 02 13 88 13 88 00 08 55 7b + ; src_ip: 152.16.100.0/8 + random=0000XXX1 + rand_offset=29 + ; dst_ip: 152.16.100.0/8 + random=0000XXX0 + rand_offset=33 + random=0001001110001XXX0001001110001XXX + rand_offset=34 + + a. ``name=p0`` - Name assigned to the core. + b. ``task=0`` - Each core can run a set of tasks. Starting with ``0``. + Task 1 can be defined later in this core or + can be defined in another ``[core 1]`` section with ``task=1`` + later in configuration file. Sometimes running + multiple task related to the same packet on the same physical + core improves performance, however sometimes it + is optimal to move task to a separate core. This is best + decided by checking performance. + c. ``mode=gen`` - Specifies the action carried out by this task on + this core. Supported modes are: classify, drop, gen, lat, genl4, nop, l2fwd, gredecap, + greencap, lbpos, lbnetwork, lbqinq, lb5tuple, ipv6_decap, ipv6_encap, + qinqdecapv4, qinqencapv4, qos, routing, impair, + mirror, unmpls, tagmpls, nat, decapnsh, encapnsh, police, acl + Which are :- + + * Classify + * Drop + * Basic Forwarding (no touch) + * L2 Forwarding (change MAC) + * GRE encap/decap + * Load balance based on packet fields + * Symmetric load balancing + * QinQ encap/decap IPv4/IPv6 + * ARP + * QoS + * Routing + * Unmpls + * Nsh encap/decap + * Policing + * ACL + + In the traffic generator we expect a core to generate packets (``gen``) + and to receive packets & calculate latency (``lat``) + This core does ``gen`` . ie it is a traffic generator. + + To understand what each of the modes support please see + `prox documentation`_. + + d. ``tx port=p0`` - This specifies that the packets generated are + transmitted to port ``p0`` + e. ``bps=1250000000`` - This indicates Bytes Per Second to + generate packets. + f. ``; Ethernet + IP + UDP`` - This is a comment. Items starting with + ``;`` are ignored. + g. ``pkt inline=${sut_mac0} 70 00 00 00 ...`` - Defines the packet + format as a sequence of bytes (each + expressed in hexadecimal notation). This defines the packet + that is generated. This packets begins + with the hexadecimal sequence assigned to ``sut_mac`` and the + remainder of the bytes in the string. + This packet could now be sent or modified by ``random=..`` + described below before being sent to target. + h. ``; src_ip: 152.16.100.0/8`` - Comment + i. ``random=0000XXX1`` - This describes a field of the packet + containing random data. This string can be + 8,16,24 or 32 character long and represents 1,2,3 or 4 + bytes of data. In this case it describes a byte of + data. Each character in string can be 0,1 or ``X``. 0 or 1 + are fixed bit values in the data packet and ``X`` is a + random bit. So random=0000XXX1 generates 00000001(1), + 00000011(3), 00000101(5), 00000111(7), + 00001001(9), 00001011(11), 00001101(13) and 00001111(15) + combinations. + j. ``rand_offset=29`` - Defines where to place the previously + defined random field. + k. ``; dst_ip: 152.16.100.0/8`` - Comment + l. ``random=0000XXX0`` - This is another random field which + generates a byte of 00000000(0), 00000010(2), + 00000100(4), 00000110(6), 00001000(8), 00001010(10), + 00001100(12) and 00001110(14) combinations. + m. ``rand_offset=33`` - Defines where to place the previously + defined random field. + n. ``random=0001001110001XXX0001001110001XXX`` - This is + another random field which generates 4 bytes. + o. ``rand_offset=34`` - Defines where to place the previously + defined 4 byte random field. + + Core 2 executes same scenario as Core 1. The only difference + in this case is that the packets are generated + for Port 1. + +8. ``[core 3]`` - This defines the activities on core 3. The purpose + of ``core 3`` and ``core 4`` is to receive packets + sent by the SUT.:: + + [core 3] + name=rec 0 + task=0 + mode=lat + rx port=p0 + lat pos=42 + + a. ``name=rec 0`` - Name assigned to the core. + b. ``task=0`` - Each core can run a set of tasks. Starting with + ``0``. Task 1 can be defined later in this core or + can be defined in another ``[core 1]`` section with + ``task=1`` later in configuration file. Sometimes running + multiple task related to the same packet on the same + physical core improves performance, however sometimes it + is optimal to move task to a separate core. This is + best decided by checking performance. + c. ``mode=lat`` - Specifies the action carried out by this task on this core. Supported modes are: acl, + classify, drop, gredecap, greencap, ipv6_decap, ipv6_encap, l2fwd, lbnetwork, lbpos, lbqinq, nop, + police, qinqdecapv4, qinqencapv4, qos, routing, impair, lb5tuple, mirror, unmpls, tagmpls, + nat, decapnsh, encapnsh, gen, genl4 and lat. This task(0) per core(3) receives packets on port. + d. ``rx port=p0`` - The port to receive packets on ``Port 0``. Core 4 will receive packets on ``Port 1``. + e. ``lat pos=42`` - Describes where to put a 4-byte timestamp in the packet. Note that the packet length should + be longer than ``lat pos`` + 4 bytes to avoid truncation of the timestamp. It defines where the timestamp is + to be read from. Note that the SUT workload might cause the position of the timestamp to change + (i.e. due to encapsulation). + +.. _nsb-sut-generator-label: + +*SUT Config file* +------------------------------- + +This section will describes the SUT(VNF) config file. This is the same for both +baremetal and heat. See this example of ``handle_l2fwd_multiflow-2.cfg`` to explain the options. + +.. image:: images/PROX_Handle_2port_cfg.png + :width: 1400px + :alt: NSB PROX Handle Config File + +See `prox options`_ for details + +Now let's examine the components of the file in detail + +1. ``[eal options]`` - same as the Generator config file. This specified the EAL (Environmental Abstraction Layer) + options. These are default values and are not changed. + See `dpdk wiki page`_. + +2. ``[port 0]`` - This section describes the DPDK Port. The number following the keyword ``port`` usually refers to the DPDK Port Id. usually starting from ``0``. + Because you can have multiple ports this entry usually repeated. Eg. For a 2 port setup ``[port0]`` and ``[port 1]`` and for a 4 port setup ``[port 0]``, ``[port 1]``, + ``[port 2]`` and ``[port 3]``:: + + [port 0] + name=if0 + mac=hardware + rx desc=2048 + tx desc=2048 + promiscuous=yes + + a. In this example ``name =if0`` assigned the name ``if0`` to the port. Any name can be assigned to a port. + b. ``mac=hardware`` sets the MAC address assigned by the hardware to data from this port. + c. ``rx desc=2048`` sets the number of available descriptors to allocate for receive packets. This can be changed and can effect performance. + d. ``tx desc=2048`` sets the number of available descriptors to allocate for transmit packets. This can be changed and can effect performance. + e. ``promiscuous=yes`` this enables promiscuous mode for this port. + +3. ``[defaults]`` - Here default operations and settings can be over written.:: + + [defaults] + mempool size=8K + memcache size=512 + + a. In this example ``mempool size=8K`` the number of mbufs per task is altered. Altering this value could effect performance. See `prox options`_ for details. + b. ``memcache size=512`` - number of mbufs cached per core, default is 256 this is the cache_size. Altering this value could effect performance. + +4. ``[global]`` - Here application wide setting are supported. Things like application name, start time, duration and memory configurations can be set here. + In this example.:: + + [global] + start time=5 + name=Basic Gen + + a. ``start time=5`` Time is seconds after which average stats will be started. + b. ``name=Handle L2FWD Multiflow (2x)`` Name of the configuration. + +5. ``[core 0]`` - This core is designated the master core. Every Prox application must have a master core. The master mode must be assigned to + exactly one task, running alone on one core.:: + + [core 0] + mode=master + +6. ``[core 1]`` - This describes the activity on core 1. Cores can be configured by means of a set of [core #] sections, where # represents either: + + a. an absolute core number: e.g. on a 10-core, dual socket system with hyper-threading, + cores are numbered from 0 to 39. + + b. PROX allows a core to be identified by a core number, the letter 's', and a socket number. + However NSB PROX is hardware agnostic (physical and virtual configurations are the same) it + is advisable no to use physical core numbering. + + Each core can be assigned with a set of tasks, each running one of the implemented packet processing modes.:: + + [core 1] + name=none + task=0 + mode=l2fwd + dst mac=@@tester_mac1 + rx port=if0 + tx port=if1 + + a. ``name=none`` - No name assigned to the core. + b. ``task=0`` - Each core can run a set of tasks. Starting with ``0``. Task 1 can be defined later in this core or + can be defined in another ``[core 1]`` section with ``task=1`` later in configuration file. Sometimes running + multiple task related to the same packet on the same physical core improves performance, however sometimes it + is optimal to move task to a separate core. This is best decided by checking performance. + c. ``mode=l2fwd`` - Specifies the action carried out by this task on this core. Supported modes are: acl, + classify, drop, gredecap, greencap, ipv6_decap, ipv6_encap, l2fwd, lbnetwork, lbpos, lbqinq, nop, + police, qinqdecapv4, qinqencapv4, qos, routing, impair, lb5tuple, mirror, unmpls, tagmpls, + nat, decapnsh, encapnsh, gen, genl4 and lat. This code does ``l2fwd`` .. ie it does the L2FWD. + + d. ``dst mac=@@tester_mac1`` - The destination mac address of the packet will be set to the MAC address of ``Port 1`` of destination device. (The Traffic Generator/Verifier) + e. ``rx port=if0`` - This specifies that the packets are received from ``Port 0`` called if0 + f. ``tx port=if1`` - This specifies that the packets are transmitted to ``Port 1`` called if1 + + If this example we receive a packet on core on a port, carry out operation on the packet on the core and transmit it on on another port still using the same task on the same core. + + On some implementation you may wish to use multiple tasks, like this.:: + + [core 1] + name=rx_task + task=0 + mode=l2fwd + dst mac=@@tester_p0 + rx port=if0 + tx cores=1t1 + drop=no + + name=l2fwd_if0 + task=1 + mode=nop + rx ring=yes + tx port=if0 + drop=no + + In this example you can see Core 1/Task 0 called ``rx_task`` receives the packet from if0 and perform the l2fwd. However instead of sending the packet to a + port it sends it to a core see ``tx cores=1t1``. In this case it sends it to Core 1/Task 1. + + Core 1/Task 1 called ``l2fwd_if0``, receives the packet, not from a port but from the ring. See ``rx ring=yes``. It does not perform any operation on the packet See ``mode=none`` + and sends the packets to ``if0`` see ``tx port=if0``. + + It is also possible to implement more complex operations be chaining multiple operations in sequence and using rings to pass packets from one core to another. + + In thus example we show a Broadband Network Gateway (BNG) with Quality of Service (QoS). Communication from task to task is via rings. + + .. image:: images/PROX_BNG_QOS.png + :width: 1000px + :alt: NSB PROX Config File for BNG_QOS + +*Baremetal Configuration file* +------------------------------ + +.. _baremetal-config-label: + +This is required for baremetal testing. It describes the IP address of the various ports, the Network devices drivers and MAC addresses and the network +configuration. + +In this example we will describe a 2 port configuration. This file is the same for all 2 port NSB Prox tests on the same platforms/configuration. + + .. image:: images/PROX_Baremetal_config.png + :width: 1000px + :alt: NSB PROX Yardstick Config + +Now lets describe the sections of the file. + + 1. ``TrafficGen`` - This section describes the Traffic Generator node of the test configuration. The name of the node ``trafficgen_1`` must match the node name + in the ``Test Description File for Baremetal`` mentioned earlier. The password attribute of the test needs to be configured. All other parameters + can remain as default settings. + 2. ``interfaces`` - This defines the DPDK interfaces on the Traffic Generator. + 3. ``xe0`` is DPDK Port 0. ``lspci`` and `` ./dpdk-devbind.py -s`` can be used to provide the interface information. ``netmask`` and ``local_ip`` should not be changed + 4. ``xe1`` is DPDK Port 1. If more than 2 ports are required then ``xe1`` section needs to be repeated and modified accordingly. + 5. ``vnf`` - This section describes the SUT of the test configuration. The name of the node ``vnf`` must match the node name in the + ``Test Description File for Baremetal`` mentioned earlier. The password attribute of the test needs to be configured. All other parameters + can remain as default settings + 6. ``interfaces`` - This defines the DPDK interfaces on the SUT + 7. ``xe0`` - Same as 3 but for the ``SUT``. + 8. ``xe1`` - Same as 4 but for the ``SUT`` also. + 9. ``routing_table`` - All parameters should remain unchanged. + 10. ``nd_route_tbl`` - All parameters should remain unchanged. + +*Grafana Dashboard* +------------------- + +The grafana dashboard visually displays the results of the tests. The steps required to produce a grafana dashboard are described here. + +.. _yardstick-config-label: + + a. Configure ``yardstick`` to use influxDB to store test results. See file ``/etc/yardstick/yardstick.conf``. + + .. image:: images/PROX_Yardstick_config.png + :width: 1000px + :alt: NSB PROX Yardstick Config + + 1. Specify the dispatcher to use influxDB to store results. + 2. "target = .. " - Specify location of influxDB to store results. + "db_name = yardstick" - name of database. Do not change + "username = root" - username to use to store result. (Many tests are run as root) + "password = ... " - Please set to root user password + + b. Deploy InfludDB & Grafana. See how to Deploy InfluxDB & Grafana. See `grafana deployment`_. + c. Generate the test data. Run the tests as follows .:: + + yardstick --debug task start tc_prox__-ports.yaml + + eg.:: + + yardstick --debug task start tc_prox_heat_context_l2fwd-4.yaml + + d. Now build the dashboard for the test you just ran. The easiest way to do this is to copy an existing dashboard and rename the + test and the field names. The procedure to do so is described here. See `opnfv grafana dashboard`_. + +How to run NSB Prox Test on an baremetal environment +==================================================== + +In order to run the NSB PROX test. + + 1.

Eg.:: + + yardstick --debug task start ./tc_prox_heat_context_l2fwd-4.yaml + +Frequently Asked Questions +========================== + +Here is a list of frequently asked questions. + +*NSB Prox does not work on Baremetal, How do I resolve this?* +------------------------------------------------------------- + +If PROX NSB does not work on baremetal, problem is either in network configuration or test file. + +*Solution* + +1. Verify network configuration. Execute existing baremetal test.:: + + yardstick --debug task start ./tc_prox_baremetal_l2fwd-4.yaml + + If test does not work then error in network configuration. + + a. Check DPDK on Traffic Generator and SUT via:- :: + + /root/dpdk-17./usertools/dpdk-devbind.py + + b. Verify MAC addresses match ``prox-baremetal-.yaml`` via ``ifconfig`` and ``dpdk-devbind`` + + c. Check your eth port is what you expect. You would not be the first person to think that + the port your cable is plugged into is ethX when in fact it is ethY. Use + ethtool to visually confirm that the eth is where you expect.:: + + ethtool -p ethX + + A led should start blinking on port. (On both System-Under-Test and Traffic Generator) + + d. Check cable. + + Install Linux kernel network driver and ensure your ports are + ``bound`` to the driver via ``dpdk-devbind``. Bring up port on both + SUT and Traffic Generator and check connection. + + i) On SUT and on Traffic Generator:: + + ifconfig ethX/enoX up + + ii) Check link + + ethtool ethX/enoX + + See ``Link detected`` if ``yes`` .... Cable is good. If ``no`` you have an issue with your cable/port. + +2. If existing baremetal works then issue is with your test. Check the traffic generator gen_-.cfg to ensure + it is producing a valid packet. + +*How do I debug NSB Prox on Baremetal?* +--------------------------------------- + +*Solution* + +1. Execute the test as follows:: + + yardstick --debug task start ./tc_prox_baremetal_l2fwd-4.yaml + +2. Login to Traffic Generator as ``root``.:: + + cd + /opt/nsb_bin/prox -f /tmp/gen_-.cfg + +3.

What is received on 0 is transmitted on 1, received on 1 transmitted on 0, + received on 2 transmitted on 3 and received on 3 transmitted on 2. + 2. No packets are Failed. + 3. No Packets are discarded. + + We can also dump the packets being received or transmitted via the following commands. :: + + dump Arguments: + Create a hex dump of from on showing how + packets have changed between RX and TX. + dump_rx Arguments: + Create a hex dump of from on at RX + dump_tx Arguments: + Create a hex dump of from on at TX + + eg.:: + + dump_tx 1 0 1 + +*NSB Prox works on Baremetal but not in Openstack. How do I resolve this?* +-------------------------------------------------------------------------- + +NSB Prox on Baremetal is a lot more forgiving than NSB Prox on Openstack. A badly +formed packed may still work with PROX on Baremetal. However on +Openstack the packet must be correct and all fields of the header correct. +Eg A packet with an invalid Protocol ID would still work in Baremetal +but this packet would be rejected by openstack. + +*Solution* + + 1. Check the validity of the packet. + 2. Use a known good packet in your test + 3. If using ``Random`` fields in the traffic generator, disable them and retry. + + +*How do I debug NSB Prox on Openstack?* +--------------------------------------- + +*Solution* + +1. Execute the test as follows:: + + yardstick --debug task start --keep-deploy ./tc_prox_heat_context_l2fwd-4.yaml + +2. Access docker image if required via:: + + docker exec -it yardstick /bin/bash + +3.
