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)

CGN - deterministic NAT

Inside user is statically mapped to a set of outside ports with the purpose of enabling deterministic NAT to reduce logging and to achieve high scale/high performance in CGN deployments. Support endpoint dependent mapping to deal with overloading of the outside ports. Prealocate 1000 session slots for each inside user. Use sequential port range assignment algorithm (the first block goes to address 1, the second block to address 2, etc.)

Supported protocols:

  • TCP
  • UDP
  • ICMP

NAT Session Refresh:

  • NAT Outbound refresh behavior
  • default UDP idle-timeout 5 minutes
  • default TCP established connection idle-timeout 2 hours 4 minutes
  • default TCP transitory connection idle-timeout 4 minutes
  • default ICMP idle-timeout 60 seconds
  • TCP session close detection
  • configurable idle-timeouts

TODO:

  • additional port range assignment algorithms

Supported IPFIX NAT events:

  • Quota exceeded - Maximum entries per user exceeded (NAT Event Type = 13, NAT Quota Exceeded Event Type = 3

IPFIX templates

Maximum entries per user exceeded:

Field Name Size (bits)

natEvent 8
natQuotaExceededEvent 32
sourceIPv4Address 32

Memory requirements

Deterministic NAT prealocate vector with 1000 session slots (one session 15B) for each host from inside network range. Heap size is configured via heapsize parameter. For large inside network you need to compile VPP with 64bit vector (-DCLIB_VEC64).
