The configuration files are created based on the DUT test scenarios. The example reference files are provided as part of the VNFs in the config folder.
Following parameters will define the config files.
Following are the example configuration files for sampleVNFs.
The reference configuration files explained here are for Software and Hardware loadbalancing with IPv4 traffic type and single port pair. For other configurations liek IPv6 and Multi-port, refer to example config files provided as part of the source code in config(VNFs/vCGNAPT/config) folder of the VNFs.
