@qiluo-msft qiluo-msft requested a review from ganglyu February 18, 2025 21:13
Due to the limited resources on the DPU, the gNMI server is offloaded onto the NPU. The gNMI server on the NPU is responsible for handling gNMI requests and responses.
The server is running on a separate `gnmi` container on the NPU, named `gnmidpu[x]`, where `x` is the DPU number. The DPU itself still retains a `gnmi` container used for the gNOI traffic. The splitter is used to separate the gNMI and gNOI traffic and forward them to the appropriate servers.
- `DPU Isolation`
Due to security requirement, the DPU is isolated from external network, i.e. the DPU's management interface is not accessible from external network and only accessible via the NPU. Hence we need a proxy on NPU to forward the gNOI traffic to the DPU.
