About this paper
Sebastian Gallenmüller, Stefan Lachnit, Manuel Simon
The authors present a semester-long master’s course project in which students build and benchmark a DPDK router in a virtualized environment. The project progresses from network setup to IPv4 forwarding, routing-table implementation, and throughput measurement, with constrained protocol support and staged tasks. The authors report infrastructure intended to support approximately 30 students, but no learning gains or router-performance advantage.
