[NANOG] Re: DPDK/VPP router

Vyos is working to add DPDK and I'm 95% sure its only in their nightly
rolling releases and not in their supported releases.

DANOS is fully DPDK but there haven't been any open source releases since
Cienna took over the closed source edition. I'm not sure what the Linux
Foundation is doing with the Opensource bits.

Both are Debian with FRR providing the routing intelligence.

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


You will want to be peeking at the myriad of articles by Pim van Pelt @
IPng Networks:
 https://ipng.ch/s/articles/

or the many presentations he has done, eg a recent one on VPP + sFlow:

or MPLS:

or BGP/OSPF:

etc...

Googling for VPP + Pim helps ;)

 Jeroen
