Hi

This guy is building a router with 10G performance, but the interesting thing was he was able to get it with using the CPU's IP acceleration.

Maybe find the detail on this, and maybe you could do it on other hardware.

Hello,

Is anyone using a routing solution based on DPDK and VPP? I'd like to use
commodity server/appliance hardware to build a router capable of 10g+
bandwidth and near maximum pps routing.

Looking to have:
Bird / FRR (BGP and BFD)
LLDP
VPN (IPSec or Wireguard)
VRRP

These boys in South Africa did some interesting work:
