This is the initial release of a re-designed version of the software based on community feedback. This initial release supports only the Phy2Phy deployment scenario and the LTD.Throughput.RFC2544.PacketLossRatio test - both described in the OPNFV vswitchperf ‘CHARACTERIZE VSWITCH PERFORMANCE FOR TELCO NFV USE CASES LEVEL TEST DESIGN’. The intention is that more test cases will follow once the community has digested the initial release.
