Pim van Pelt a282a5358a acl: rework source/destination
For ACE 'source' and 'destination' is now possible to specify one of:
- ipv4 or ipv6 address
- ipv4 or ipv6 prefix
- name of a prefixlist

The validator resolves the src/dst network list, optionally filtering
this with the desired 'family' (which defaults to 'any'). Errors are
raised if the resulting src/dst network lists do not overlap, that is
to say if all src entries are IPv4 but there are no IPv4 dst entries
and vise-versa.

*  Update the example to have a 'trusted' prefixlist.
*  Update the unit tests to use the new error message(s).

A VPP Configuration Utility

This tool reads a configuration file, checks it for syntax and semantic correctness, and then reconciles a running VPP daemon with its configuration. It is meant to be re-entrant and stateless. The tool connects to the VPP API and creates/removes all of the configuration in a minimally intrusive way.

NOTE This code is under development, and probably won't work well until this note is removed. If you're interested in helping, reach out to <pim at ipng dot ch> to discuss options.

Building

This program expects Python3 and PIP to be installed. It's known to work on Debian Bullseye and Ubuntu Focal/Jammy.

## Install python build dependencies 
$ make install-deps

## Ensure all unittests pass.
$ make test

## Build vppcfg
$ make build

## Install the tool with PIP
$ make install

## To build & install debian packaging
$ make pkg-deb
$ ls -l ../vppcfg_*_amd64.deb

Running

usage: vppcfg [-h] [-d] [-q] [-f] {check,dump,plan,apply} ...

positional arguments:
  {check,dump,plan,apply}
    check               check given YAML config for validity (no VPP)
    dump                dump current running VPP configuration (VPP readonly)
    plan                plan changes from current VPP dataplane to target config (VPP readonly)
    apply               apply changes from current VPP dataplane to target config

optional arguments:
  -h, --help            show this help message and exit
  -d, --debug           enable debug logging, default False
  -q, --quiet           be quiet (only warnings/errors), default False
  -f, --force           force progress despite warnings, default False

Please see vppcfg <command> -h   for per-command arguments
