Re: I-D Action: draft-ietf-bmwg-vswitch-opnfv-01.txt

BMWG,

This revision addresses comments from our IETF-96 
session in Berlin:

x OVS features - the scope of benchmarking does not include 
the ever-growing list of OVS features, only the general 
and switch-agnostic features will be assessed. 

x Justify the length of SOAK tests (with variability allowed), 
mention that the goal is stability characterization, 
not the typical short term benchmarks of performance. 

x Fix the LTD Reference to point to Brahmaputra version 
(which is frozen in the release docs).

regards,
Maryam, Billy, and Al
co-authors

> Abstract:
>    This memo describes the progress of the Open Platform for NFV (OPNFV)
>    project on virtual switch performance "VSWITCHPERF".  This project
>    intends to build on the current and completed work of the
>    Benchmarking Methodology Working Group in IETF, by referencing
>    existing literature.  The Benchmarking Methodology Working Group has
>    traditionally conducted laboratory characterization of dedicated
>    physical implementations of internetworking functions.  Therefore,
>    this memo begins to describe the additional considerations when
>    virtual switches are implemented in general-purpose hardware.  The
>    expanded tests and benchmarks are also influenced by the OPNFV
>    mission to support virtualization of the "telco" infrastructure.
