Overview

This shows how to use VPP lite to run the LISP functional tests on an Ubuntu host using namespaces and af_packet interfaces. The LispFlowMapping Map-Server/Resolver in OpenDaylight Beryllium is used as overlay control plane.

Build VPP lite for the first time

Download and install vagrant from here.

git clone https://gerrit.fd.io/r/vpp
cd vpp/build-root/vagrant
vagrant up

Wait for the VM to be provisioned and once it completes, you can access the VM with:

vagrant ssh

To build VPP lite, in the VM do:

cd /vpp
export PLATFORM=vpp_lite
make build

For more details on how to build VPP see the pulling, building, running, hacking and pushing VPP code section.

Setup Vagrant VM

Install bridge-utils and ethtool if needed:

sudo apt-get install bridge-utils ethtool 

Optional, install wireshark.

ODL Map-Server/Resolver

Steps to install and configure ODL, assuming the SR1 tar archive is downloaded:

Install and configure ODL

wget https://nexus.opendaylight.org/content/repositories/autorelease-1415/org/opendaylight/integration/distribution-karaf/0.5.0-Boron-RC1/distribution-karaf-0.5.0-Boron-RC1.tar.gz
tar xzf distribution-karaf-0.5.0-Boron-RC1.tar.gz

Edit custom properties and change elp policy to "replace"

./distribution-karaf-0.5.0-Boron-RC1/etc/custom.properties

Run ODL

./distribution-karaf-0.5.0-Boron-RC1/bin/karaf

To install LispFlowMapping Map-Server/Resolver, in the karaf console type:

feature:install odl-lispflowmapping-msmr

Run the ONE functional tests

Clone the one repo in the vagrant VM:

cd ~
git clone https://gerrit.fd.io/r/one

Go to tests folder

cd one/tests/data_plane/vpp_lite_topo/

To run all tests do:

sudo ./run.sh

To run one test do:

sudo ./tests/test_*.sh

To run a test step-by-step, edit the test file in ./tests/test_*.sh and add to the test function call, typically the last line in the script, "wait" as a parameter
