FD.io VPP-SSwan and Linux-CP – Integrate StrongSwan with World’s First Open Sourced 1.89 Tb IPsec Solution Technology Guide

Last Updated: Jun 06, 2023

FD.io Vector Packet Processing (VPP) IPsec is an important component in VPP to enable secure, reliable, and fast networking applications. One of the most widely used IKE applications is StrongSwan, which is a multiplatform IPsec implementation. This guide demonstrates how to use VPP-SSwan and Linux Control Plane, two new plugins in VPP, to integrate VPP with StrongSwan seamlessly, so that the user can replace StrongSwan’s Linux kernel IPsec data path to significantly improve IPsec performance from VPP.
