Description
This summer, Sean Cummings and Chris Cummings developed a proof of concept SIIT-DC NAT64 translator using the ESnet SmartNIC framework and DPDK. In this lightning talk, I'll explore the advantages of this framework for rapidly developing high-performance hardware network functions. I'll provide an overview of the ESnet SmartNIC framework and discuss how we utilized P4 and DPDK to achieve 100G line-rate IPv6 SIIT-DC translation on an FPGA.
What will the TNC audience take away from your talk
After this talk, the audience will be aware of the ESnet SmartNIC framework and its high-level capabilities. They will hopefully leave feeling less daunted about building high performance hardware-level network functions. It's so easy, a Chris-Caveman can do it!
