Development Update

•  Reporting
•  Spirent Container at Pod12.

For Openstack and Kubernetes Test-runs - what other information to add, apart from

1. Openstack/Kubernetes, Version, Compute/Worker Node Details, Networking Details - Include the NiC speed,  Flavor/Resource-Details, 

Compute, Networking, Storage & memory, CP.

This will be the starting set. 

Spirent Container is ready, and we can deploy on the pod, To access it, we need some changes to the cluster.

Expose - NodePort, LoadBalancer, ExternalIP .

LoadBalancer seems to be a better approach.  MetalLb on the cluster. ToDo: Configure the address pools.

kubectl exec option may not apply for Commercial Traffic-Generators.

Kubernetes Testcases and

ViNePerf

•  Kali release
•  L Release

1. CNCF CNF Conformance
2. Kubernetes  E2E Tests.
3. CNTT Requirements and Specs (RA-2, Chapter 2 and 4)
4. Vendor Req. Specs.

3-Categories in ViNePerf.

1. INT-INT (Benchmarking)
2. INT-EXT (Benchmarking)
3. Networking Services Performance. (Benchmarking)
4. Control Plane Performance <excluded>
5. Networking Conformance Tests (Reachability, connectivity, ..) < excluded>

https://github.com/cntt-n/CNTT/pull/2391 - Sridhar to Review.

Interns Tasks

•  DPPD-Prox.
•  Deployment Tool.

Integrating DPPD-Prox with ViNePerf for Openstack and Kubernetes Dataplane Benchmarking . Review this with Luc Provoost.

Automating Test-tools deployment in Openstack and Kubernetes

Please feel free to update these tasks with any inputs.

Title: Containerizing TGens and LoadGens for K8S Performance Testing - Opportunities and Challenges

Sharing the learnings from containerizing both Opensource and Commercial TGens.

1. LoadBalancer - Added.
2. NodePort Configuration - Need the right path/manifest details.

Attended the Summer-School on P4, Connected with P4-Vswitch team, 

Team didn't have resource to support Vsperf work.
