The JavaScript implementation of ixy. It features a state-of-the-art user-space network driver written in idiomatic JavaScript running on Node.js.
This should not be used in production environments or private, non-expendable machines as we cannot guarantee that this does not break other PCIe devices and their drivers if used incorrectly.
Make sure you have sudo:
apt install sudo
sudo apt-get update
Install nvm via
curl -o- https://github.com/raw/nvm-sh/nvm/v0.34.0/install.sh | bash
Then close and reopen your terminal to start using nvm or run the following to use it instantly:
export NVM_DIR="$HOME/.nvm"
[ -s "$NVM_DIR/nvm.sh" ] && \. "$NVM_DIR/nvm.sh" # This loads nvm
[ -s "$NVM_DIR/bash_completion" ] && \. "$NVM_DIR/bash_completion" # This loads nvm bash_completion
After that you can install and choose a node version by simply typing
nvm install 10
and
nvm use 10
To build the complete program simply use
npm run setup
If you want to work on the project, remember to also install dev dependencies to use the predefined formatting rules for ESLint.
You can do so via npm i
or simply use npm run devsetup
instead.
to run the generate example:
npm run generate xxxx:xx:xx.x optionalBatchSize
to run the forward example: (remember, you need to send packets to those ports for forwarding to do something; Moongen can handle that)
npm run forward xxxx:xx:xx.x xxxx:xx:xx.x optionalBatchSize
The pci adresses should have the format xxxx:xx:xx.x
and could look like this: 0000:03:00.0
If you add true
after defining a batch size the program will also calculate an average speed for performance testing.
