+Examples
+========
+
+There are many examples of how to create traffic flows in the directories below the
+TRex root directory. The stateless examples are written in Python and are found in
+the **./stl** directory. Examine the directories **./avl/, ./stl and ./cap2**. A few
+simple examples are as follows:
+
+* ./cap2/dns.yaml - Used in the first example
+* ./avl/sfr_delay_10_1g.yaml - Used in the second example
+* ./cap2/imix*.yaml - Uses some imix traffic profiles.
+* ./stl/udp_1pkt.py - UDP example
+* ./stl/imix.py - Simple imix example
+
+Summary
+=======
+
+This tutorial showed how to download, compile, and install the VPP binary on an
+IntelĀ® Architecture platform. Examples of /etc/sysctl.d/80-vpp.conf and
+/etc/vpp/startup.conf/startup.conf configuration files were provided to get the
+user up and running with VPP. The tutorial also illustrated how to detect and bind
+the network interfaces to a DPDK-compatible driver. You can use the VPP CLI to assign
+IP addresses to these interfaces and bring them up. Four examples using iperf3
+and TRex were included, to show how VPP processes packets in batches. We
+also showed how to use TRex in stateless mode and examine traffic flow statistics.
