    • Move VNET features into plugins

      In order to reduce the size of the core vpp application, independent features currently residing in .../vpp/src/vnet are to be moved into plugins. This also improves security by allowing loading/initializing features at runtime, thus eliminating the inclusion of features that are not being used from any instance of the vpp application.

      NOTE: For any feature which is configured in CSIT tests, the new plugin will need to be added to the 'plugins_to_enable' robot framework variable in all test suites which utilize the feature.  CSIT-1878 has been created to track the associated CSIT modifications. Please add a new sub-task to CSIT-1878 and link it to the associated sub-task in this epic if the feature is used in CSIT.
