VPP Security Groups

Introduction

Features are tracked as they are developed in the following VPP-427.

Requirements

• Support classifiers/filters on any interface type (bridged / routed)
• Filter on IP-addresses with address mask or prefix length (IPv4 and IPv6)
• Filter on source and destination TCP/UDP port ranges
• Filter on source and destination L2 MAC addresses
• Support IPv6 with extension headers present
• Support fragmented packets and unknown transport layer headers
• Combinations of the above filters (e.g. MAC + IP)
• Filters on ingress and egress interfaces
• Stateful firewall. No application layer filtering.
