VPP NAT implementation

Introduction

The VPP SNAT is an implementation of NAT44. It is a plugin and is meant to replace the VCGN component. The target use case is a general IPv4 CPE NAT, a CGN and to act as a NAT44 in a Openstack deployment.

It is intended to be pluggable, in the sense that it should be possible to plug the NAT44 function together with the MAP-E IPv4 to IPv6 translator to create a MAP-E CE, likewise one can plug the NAT44 together with MAP-T to create a MAP-T CE or 464XLAT.

Features are tracked as they are developed in the following VPP-441.

Until code is upstreamed it is developed on gitub.

Requirements

  • Scale to millions of bindings
  • Performance goal of 10Mpps/core.
  • Configurable address and port selection algorithm.
  • User quotas for sessions.
  • Thread safe
  • Efficient port utilisation. Endpoint independent for applications requiring it, address and port filtering otherwise
  • No ALGs
  • Configurable IP address pooling behavour
  • Plugable with MAP-E/T to create MAP-E/T CE, 464XLAT
  • Stateful NAT64
  • Support for NAT on a stick (single inside / outside interface)

 u8 is_inside;
 u32 sw_if_index;
};

dump interfaces with S-NAT feature:

 u32 context;
};

define snat_interface_details {
 u32 context;

 u32 vrf_id;
};

dump 1:1 NAT: 

define snat_static_mapping_dump {
 u32 client_index;
 u32 context;
};

define snat_static_mapping_details {
 u32 context;
 u8 is_ip4;
 u8 addr_only;
 u8 local_ip_address[16];
 u8 external_ip_address[16];
 u16 local_port;
 u16 external_port;
 u32 vrf_id;
};

show S-NAT plugin config: 

define snat_show_config {
 u32 client_index;
 u32 context;
};

define snat_show_config_reply {
 u32 context;
 i32 retval;
 u8 static_mapping_only;
