+# This test is designed for evaluating the new SRv6 End.DT4 behavior used for
+# implementing IPv4 L3 VPN use cases.
+#
+# Hereafter a network diagram is shown, where two different tenants (named 100
+# and 200) offer IPv4 L3 VPN services allowing hosts to communicate with each
+# other across an IPv6 network.
+#
+# Only hosts belonging to the same tenant (and to the same VPN) can communicate
+# with each other. Instead, the communication among hosts of different tenants
+# is forbidden.
+# In other words, hosts hs-t100-1 and hs-t100-2 are connected through the IPv4
+# L3 VPN of tenant 100 while hs-t200-3 and hs-t200-4 are connected using the
+# IPv4 L3 VPN of tenant 200. Cross connection between tenant 100 and tenant 200
+# is forbidden and thus, for example, hs-t100-1 cannot reach hs-t200-3 and vice
+# versa.
+#
+# Routers rt-1 and rt-2 implement IPv4 L3 VPN services leveraging the SRv6
+# architecture. The key components for such VPNs are: a) SRv6 Encap behavior,
+# b) SRv6 End.DT4 behavior and c) VRF.
+#
+# To explain how an IPv4 L3 VPN based on SRv6 works, let us briefly consider an
+# example where, within the same domain of tenant 100, the host hs-t100-1 pings
+# the host hs-t100-2.
+#
+# First of all, L2 reachability of the host hs-t100-2 is taken into account by
+# the router rt-1 which acts as an arp proxy.
+#
+# When the host hs-t100-1 sends an IPv4 packet destined to hs-t100-2, the
+# router rt-1 receives the packet on the internal veth-t100 interface. Such
+# interface is enslaved to the VRF vrf-100 whose associated table contains the
+# SRv6 Encap route for encapsulating any IPv4 packet in a IPv6 plus the Segment
+# Routing Header (SRH) packet. This packet is sent through the (IPv6) core
+# network up to the router rt-2 that receives it on veth0 interface.
+#
+# The rt-2 router uses the 'localsid' routing table to process incoming
+# IPv6+SRH packets which belong to the VPN of the tenant 100. For each of these
+# packets, the SRv6 End.DT4 behavior removes the outer IPv6+SRH headers and
+# performs the lookup on the vrf-100 table using the destination address of
+# the decapsulated IPv4 packet. Afterwards, the packet is sent to the host
+# hs-t100-2 through the veth-t100 interface.
+#
+# The ping response follows the same processing but this time the role of rt-1
+# and rt-2 are swapped.
+#
+# Of course, the IPv4 L3 VPN for tenant 200 works exactly as the IPv4 L3 VPN
+# for tenant 100. In this case, only hosts hs-t200-3 and hs-t200-4 are able to
+# connect with each other.
