L4 plugin

The l4plugin is a Core Agent Plugin that is designed to configure VPP application namespaces. Configuration managed by this plugin is modelled by the proto file. The configuration must be stored in etcd using the following key:

/vnf-agent/<agent-label>/vpp/config/v1/l4/namespaces/<namespaceID>

/vnf-agent/<agent-label>/vpp/config/v1/l4/features/feature

An example of configuration in json format can be found here.

Note: the l4 features need to be enabled on the VPP. To do so, use second json configuration file which can be found here here

To insert config into etcd in json format vpp-agent-ctl can be used. We assume that we want to configure vpp with label vpp1 and config is stored in the app-ns.json file. At first, enable L4 features, then configure the application namespace.

vpp-agent-ctl -put "/vnf-agent/vpp1/vpp/config/v1/l4/features/feature" json/enable-l4.json
vpp-agent-ctl -put "/vnf-agent/vpp1/vpp/config/v1/l4/namespaces/ns1" json/app-ns.json

The vpp-agent-ctl contains a simple predefined application namespace config also. It can be used for testing purposes. To enable l4 features, run:

vpp-agent-ctl -el4

To disable it:

vpp-agent-ctl -dl4

To configure application namespace:

vpp-agent-ctl -appns

Note: application namespaces cannot be removed. Currently it is not supported by the VPP.

Types

type L4Configurator

type L4Configurator struct {
	Log logging.Logger

	ServiceLabel servicelabel.ReaderAPI
	GoVppmux     govppmux.API

	// Indexes
	SwIfIndexes  ifaceidx.SwIfIndex
	AppNsIndexes nsidx.AppNsIndexRW

	AppNsCached nsidx.AppNsIndexRW // the mapping stores not-configurable app namespaces with metadata
	AppNsIdxSeq uint32             // used only for AppNsCached; incremented after every registration

	// timer used to measure and store time
	Stopwatch *measure.Stopwatch
	// contains filtered or unexported fields
}

L4Configurator runs in the background in its own goroutine where it watches for any changes in the configuration of interfaces as modelled by the proto file "../model/l4/l4.proto" and stored in ETCD under the keys "/vnf-agent/{vnf-agent}/vpp/config/v1/l4/l4ftEnabled" and "/vnf-agent/{vnf-agent}/vpp/config/v1/l4/namespaces/{namespace_id}". Updates received from the northbound API are compared with the VPP run-time configuration and differences are applied through the VPP binary API.
