Throughput Performance for Release 22.1.4

This article provides throughput performance numbers for Versa Operating SystemTM (VOSTM) Release 22.1.4.

All throughput performance testing was done under the following conditions:

  • SD-WAN and CGNAT services with default configuration were activated during performance testing.
  • Testing was done with UDP traffic, as specified in RFC 2544, with a 0.1 percent acceptable loss rate, using 1024 sessions with application offloading and with CPU isolation enabled.
  • When you test UDP traffic, start the test with less traffic, and then increase by 20 percent until the service load reaches 100 percent.
  • For CSG350, CSG355, and CSG365 series appliances, and V110 and V120 appliances, QAT is disabled by default. This is based on a recommendation from Intel due to rare occurrences of traffic stalling when QAT is enabled.
  • The session timeout was set to high value (3,600 seconds).
  • Encryption with AES128-GCM, which is the default encryption method.
  • A Spirent tester was used for testing SD-WAN traffic (refer to Layer 1 traffic statistics).
  • Performance is the amount of traffic processed by the CPU; that is, it is an aggregate of WAN-to-LAN and LAN-to-WAN traffic.
  • Performance numbers were captured at 100 percent of the service load under ideal test conditions, so all numbers should be considered as maximum values.
  • The traffic test uses internet mix (IMIX) without fragmentation, so users may adjust the 1400 byte frame size in the tables below based on the traffic generator used for testing.
  • For devices using 16 or more CPUs, issue the CLI command set system service-options flow-balance-algorithm RR for idle session distribution.
  • Four or more physical interfaces were used, for optimal performance.
  • CSG5000 series and Dell-7515 appliances were tested with four 100-Gigabit Ethernet ports with eight pollers for branch-to-branch tests and sixteen pollers for DIA tests.

For all testing, the following internet mix (IMIX) distribution was used:

Frame Size (Bytes) Percentage
66 45
78 8
218 8
594 2
1354 16
