The presentation will show a reference design of containerized VNFs with VPP integration on Arm-based NFV infrastructure. Kubernetes is used as VIM to deploy Docker cluster for OPNFV platform. DPDK is used to accelerate containerized VNFs, meanwhile, the VPP vhost-user interfaces are used to create an L2 bridge and VxLAN overlay to connect between containers, which can be on the same host or different hosts. The design ensures high throughput performance for VNFs, as well as provides high scalability. The whole deployment process for container networking with VPP on Arm platform would be demoed.
This presentation will be useful for an audience who want to understand the progress of NFV on Arm and who have the plan to deploy their containerized NFV solutions on Arm architecture.
