Frequently Asked Questions About Asterfusion SmartNIC

Are Asterfusion SmarNICS P4-compatible?

Sorry no, currently  some Xilinx FPGA based cards supports P4, but our card target to support stateful network traffic processing, such as session tracking and higher layer protocol processing, so we choose DPU as the core of our card, on which you can use DPDK/VPP and C to programme. Also ,big buffer, big table needs big memory, we can provide it.

Does Asterfusion SmartNIC have drivers for OpenStack already?

We have an OVS software for SmartNIC, but we still prefer our partner to run their own OVS and openstack software on the NIC, because usually different user has different software requirement. But surely, we can help to delivery turnkey solution if end customer needs, we can provide software development for the case.

Are Asterfusion SmarNICS Support DPDK/VPP?

Yes.by using DPDK/VPP, you can implement features not only L2/L3 where P4 is suitable, but also L4~L7 where P4 is not good for.

Could you confirm what version of DPDK and what version of VPP is supported?

DPDK 19.11 &VPP 19.08

Does Asterfusion have P4 Programmable Network Cards?

We have C programmable network cards, you can use DPDK/VPP on the card.

Could you confirm if CentOS Stream 8 or CentOS Stream 9 or Redhat 8 is supported?

Yes, it could support from docker .

Could you confirm the performance for RFC2544 with the type of network traffic generator that you have used to check it?

64bytes, 33Mpps
