Intro

If you are simply using vpp, it can be convenient to simply install the packages. The instructions below will pull the latest freshest package build from the master branch (updated on every merge).

Package Descriptions

  • vpp - Description: Vector Packet Processing--executables. This package provides VPP executables: vpp, vpp_api_test, vpp_json_test
    • vpp - the vector packet engine
    • vpp_api_test - vector packet engine API test tool
    • vpp_json_test - vector packet engine JSON test tool
  • vpp-lib - Description: Vector Packet Processing--runtime libraries. This package contains the VPP shared libraries, including:
    • vppinfra - foundation library supporting vectors, hashes, bitmaps, pools, and string formatting.

Ubuntu/Debian/Centos

Packages are published for both the amd64 (Intel) and aarch64 (ARM) architectures. The packages are stored in the same repository so no special action is required to select your architecture.

Add fd.io repo

VPP release packages are available at: https://packagecloud.io/fdio/release

Note to VPP Release Managers: Pre-release packages are staged for final verification at: https://packagecloud.io/fdio/staging

If you follow that link you should see a screen presenting buttons to click to get instructions for installing Debian/Rpm packages. Click on the appropriate link for instructions, and those should work for Ubuntu 16.04, 18.04, or Centos7. What to expect when following the link to https://packagecloud.io/fdio/release is in the image below: Packagecloud repo install

If you wish to install the merge-by-merge packages for the vpp master branch or the vpp stable/YYMM branches, the instructions are the same but use instead:

Install Packages

Debs

Once you have installed the repo: 

sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install vpp
  • Optional Debs 
sudo apt-get install vpp vpp-plugin-core vpp-plugin-dpdk vpp-dbg vpp-dev vpp-ext-deps vpp-api-python vpp-api-java

Note to Release Managers: As of 19.04, vpp-api-java is produced by the JVPP project which has a delayed release cycle. Do not include vpp-api-java when verifying release packages.

Prior to 19.04, 

sudo apt-get install vpp vpp-plugins vpp-dbg vpp-dev vpp-api-java vpp-api-python vpp-api-lua

Note: Prior to 19.04, vpp-plugins contained the dpdk-plugin needed to use dpdk drivers for hardware interfaces. Starting with 19.04, the dpdk drivers are contained in vpp-plugin-dpdk

  • Installing a specific package version 
export VPP_VER=19.01.2-release
sudo apt-get install vpp=$VPP_VER vpp-lib=$VPP_VER
  • Uninstalling Debs 
sudo apt-get remove --purge vpp*
sudo apt autoremove

RPMs

Note: Circa 19.04-rc0 some dependencies were introduced for Centos7 packages are required to install VPP: 

--> Finished Dependency Resolution

Installing the following packages on Centos7 resolves these dependency issues: 

sudo yum install epel-release mbedtls python36

Once you have installed the repo: 

sudo yum install vpp
  • Optional RPMs 
sudo yum install vpp vpp-plugins vpp-devel vpp-debuginfo vpp-ext-deps vpp-api-python vpp-api-lua vpp-api-java

Note: vpp-plugins contains the dpdk-plugin needed to use dpdk drivers for hardware interfaces.

Note to VPP Release Managers: As of 19.04, vpp-api-java is produced by the JVPP project which has a delayed release cycle. Do not include vpp-api-java when verifying VPP release packages.

  • List all vpp packages 
yum list vpp*
  • Start VPP 
sudo systemctl restart vpp

Uninstalling VPP RPMs

sudo yum autoremove vpp*
