Hi, We have had a software-based (OVS) OpenFlows switch for a couple of year. We have used the Ryu Test Platform do determine the compliance with OF 1.3. We loved the test environment (thanks Ryu team) and found it a very powerful tool to determine what was working and focus development on areas that needed work.
When we developed a line-rate OpenFlow switch based on the Broadcom OF-DPA technology, we of course wanted to again use the Ryu Test Platform. So we decided to port the test program to use the OF-DPA pipeline. This turned out to be a much bigger task than first estimated. But, after a significant learning experience and debugging effort, we have the test code working with the OF-DPA pipeline and the 00_OUTPUT jason file, modified for the OF-DPA pipeline, passing. This is a milestone. The task now is to port each of the jason test files to the OF-DPA pipeline. Not a small task. We will be posting our progress as the test cases come over. This will include what runs and what fails. Example code available. We think it is very important to the industry to know what can and can not be done a line-rate with OF-DPA. If you are interest in how we got Ryu test to work with OF-DPA, or need some help in getting it to work for you environment please feel free to contact me at [email protected].
