###############################
This section lists those features that became available in VPP Release 16.09:
* Integrated July 2016 DPDK release
- DPDK-vhost is depreciated pending a complete rework of the original integration and addressing of rx performance deltas
- Patches required for DPDK 16.07:
+ Correctly setting the Packet Type in the IGB, IXGBE and i40e drivers
+ Correctly setting checksum in the i40e driver
+ NXP DPAA2 PMD Driver
+ rte_delay (yield) functionality
* Add “in tree” plugins:
- IPv6 ILA
- iOAM
- Load Balancer
- SNAT
* High-performance (line-rate) “neutron like” L4 port-filtering
* API refactoring - addressing some of the issues around JVPP bindings
- Accommodating plugins (e.g. NSH_SFC)
- Binding for python
* LISP
- L2 LISP overlays
- Multitenancy
- Multihoming
- RTR mode
- Map-resolver failover algorithm
* Support 64-bit vector lengths, huge shared-memory segments
* Dynamic IP Feature ordering
- IP Features can now specify features they appear before and after
* 16.09 Builds
- Ubuntu 14.04 LTS - Trusty Tahr
- Ubuntu 16.04 LTS - Xenial Xerus
- CentOS 7
- More information on VPP wiki
* Performance, characterize and document performance for this release (more information on CSIT page)
- IPv4 and IPv6 Scale - performance tests
+ Bidirectional 10k/100k/1M flows
+ 64B,570B, 1518B,9000B packet sizes
- IPv6 iACL - performance
+ DUT1 and DUT2 are configured with IPv6 routing, two static IPv6 /64 routes and IPv6 iAcl security whitelist ingress /64 filter entries applied on links
+ TG traffic profile contains two L3 flow-groups (flow-group per direction, 253 flows per flow-group) with all packets containing Ethernet header, IPv6 header and generated payload
+ MAC addresses are matching MAC addresses of the TG node interfaces
- L2XC VXLANoIPv4 - performance
+ DUT1 and DUT2 are configured with L2 cross-connect. VXLAN tunnels are configured between L2XCs on DUT1 and DUT2
+ TG traffic profile contains two L3 flow-groups (flow-group per direction, 253 flows per flow-group) with all packets containing Ethernet header, IPv4 header with IP protocol=61 and generated payload
+ MAC addresses are matching MAC addresses of the TG node interfaces
* Documentation
- Autogenerated CLI documentation
- Using doxygen to automate API/Node documentation
- (available online)
* Resolved all static analysis issues found by Coverity
- Beginning of 16.09 cycle: 505 issues
- Release: 0 outstanding issues
