README

ndndpdk-svc

This program executes the NDN-DPDK service. It is intended to be controlled by a service manager, which should automatically restart the process if it exits.

Initially, the program only provides an HTTP GraphQL server at http://127.0.0.1:3030/. The listening endpoint may be overridden via --gqlserver command line flag. You can connect to this GraphQL server and use introspection to discover its schema.

To activate as a forwarder, invoke the activate mutation with forwarder argument. The argument is a JSON object that conforms to ActivateFwArgs in TypeScript or build/share/ndn-dpdk/forwarder.schema.json JSON schema.

To activate as a traffic generator, invoke the activate mutation with trafficgen argument. The argument is a JSON object that conforms to ActivateGenArgs in TypeScript or build/share/ndn-dpdk/trafficgen.schema.json JSON schema.

Usage

sudo ndndpdk-svc
node forwarder.config.js | ndndpdk-ctrl activate-forwarder
node trafficgen.config.js | ndndpdk-ctrl activate-trafficgen
