YANET

YANET is an open-source extensible framework for software forwarding traffic based on DPDK.

Introduction

The main objective of our solution is to be fault-tolerant and high-performance traffic processor. This is achieved due to the absence of context switching, no data race, constant complexity of algorithms, lockless.

Features

• IPv4/IPv6 routing
• ECMP with weight
• MPLS encapsulation
• Dot1q ethernet encapsulation
• IPFW compatible ruleset with extensions
• Stateful firewall
• Layer-4 load balancer
• IPIP tunnel
• NAT64 stateless/stateful
• Telemetry via telegraf
• Over 200Gbps network bandwidth
• Advanced autotests

Quick Start

You can build YANET in docker container and run it in QEMU. See DEMO.

Or build on bare metal. See documentation.

Running Autotests

Pull docker image:

docker pull yanetplatform/builder

Add alias for run commands on docker:

alias yanet-builder="docker run --rm -it -v /run/yanet:/run/yanet -v \$PWD:/project yanetplatform/builder"

Once setup build_autotest directory:

yanet-builder meson setup -Dtarget=autotest build_autotest

Compile:

yanet-builder meson compile -C build_autotest

Run autotest with all units in autotest/units/001_one_port:

yanet-builder ./autotest/yanet-autotest-run.py --prefix=build_autotest autotest/units/001_one_port

Or run one unit:

yanet-builder ./autotest/yanet-autotest-run.py --prefix=build_autotest autotest/units/001_one_port autotest/units/001_one_port/019_acl_decap_route

For more information about the autotests run:

yanet-builder ./autotest/yanet-autotest-run.py -h
