+# TRAFFIC dictionary defines traffic parameters used by all traffic generators.
+# Detailed description of TRAFFIC dictionary items follows:
+#
+# 'traffic_type' - One of the supported traffic types.
+# E.g. rfc2544_throughput, rfc2544_back2back
+# or rfc2544_continuous
+# Data type: str
+# Default value: "rfc2544_throughput".
+# 'bidir' - Specifies if generated traffic will be full-duplex (True)
+# or half-duplex (False)
+# Data type: str
+# Supported values: "True", "False"
+# Default value: "False".
+# 'frame_rate' - Defines desired percentage of frame rate used during
+# continuous stream tests.
+# Data type: int
+# Default value: 100.
+# 'multistream' - Defines number of flows simulated by traffic generator.
+# Value 0 disables multistream feature
+# Data type: int
+# Supported values: 0-65536 for 'L4' stream type
+# unlimited for 'L2' and 'L3' stream types
+# Default value: 0.
+# 'stream_type' - Stream type is an extension of the "multistream" feature.
+# If multistream is disabled, then stream type will be
+# ignored. Stream type defines ISO OSI network layer used
+# for simulation of multiple streams.
+# Data type: str
+# Supported values:
+# "L2" - iteration of destination MAC address
+# "L3" - iteration of destination IP address
+# "L4" - iteration of destination port
+# of selected transport protocol
+# Default value: "L4".
+# 'pre_installed_flows'
+# - Pre-installed flows is an extension of the "multistream"
+# feature. If enabled, it will implicitly insert a flow
+# for each stream. If multistream is disabled, then
+# pre-installed flows will be ignored.
+# Note: It is supported only for p2p deployment scenario.
+# Data type: str
+# Supported values:
+# "Yes" - flows will be inserted into OVS
+# "No" - flows won't be inserted into OVS
+# Default value: "No".
+# 'flow_type' - Defines flows complexity.
+# Data type: str
+# Supported values:
+# "port" - flow is defined by ingress ports
+# "IP" - flow is defined by ingress ports
+# and src and dst IP addresses
+# Default value: "port"
+# 'flow_control' - Controls flow control support by traffic generator.
+# Supported values:
+# False - flow control is disabled
+# True - flow control is enabled
+# Default value: False
+# Note: Currently it is supported by IxNet only
+# 'learning_frames' - Controls learning frames support by traffic generator.
+# Supported values:
+# False - learning freames are disabled
+# True - learning freames are enabled
+# Default value: True
+# Note: Currently it is supported by IxNet only
+# 'l2' - A dictionary with l2 network layer details. Supported
+# values are:
+# 'srcmac' - Specifies source MAC address filled by traffic generator.
+# NOTE: It can be modified by vsperf in some scenarios.
+# Data type: str
+# Default value: "00:00:00:00:00:00".
+# 'dstmac' - Specifies destination MAC address filled by traffic generator.
+# NOTE: It can be modified by vsperf in some scenarios.
+# Data type: str
+# Default value: "00:00:00:00:00:00".
+# 'framesize' - Specifies default frame size. This value should not be
+# changed directly. It will be overridden during testcase
+# execution by values specified by list TRAFFICGEN_PKT_SIZES.
+# Data type: int
+# Default value: 64
+# 'l3' - A dictionary with l3 network layer details. Supported
+# values are:
+# 'enabled' - Specifies if l3 layer should be enabled or disabled.
+# Data type: bool
+# Default value: True
+# NOTE: Supported only by IxNet trafficgen class
+# 'srcip' - Specifies source MAC address filled by traffic generator.
+# NOTE: It can be modified by vsperf in some scenarios.
+# Data type: str
+# Default value: "1.1.1.1".
+# 'dstip' - Specifies destination MAC address filled by traffic generator.
+# NOTE: It can be modified by vsperf in some scenarios.
+# Data type: str
+# Default value: "90.90.90.90".
+# 'proto' - Specifies deflaut protocol type.
+# Please check particular traffic generator implementation
+# for supported protocol types.
+# Data type: str
+# Default value: "udp".
+# 'l4' - A dictionary with l4 network layer details. Supported
+# values are:
+# 'enabled' - Specifies if l4 layer should be enabled or disabled.
+# Data type: bool
+# Default value: True
+# NOTE: Supported only by IxNet trafficgen class
+# 'srcport' - Specifies source port of selected transport protocol.
+# NOTE: It can be modified by vsperf in some scenarios.
+# Data type: int
+# Default value: 3000
+# 'dstport' - Specifies destination port of selected transport protocol.
+# NOTE: It can be modified by vsperf in some scenarios.
+# Data type: int
+# Default value: 3001
+# 'vlan' - A dictionary with vlan encapsulation details. Supported
+# values are:
+# 'enabled' - Specifies if vlan encapsulation should be enabled or
+# disabled.
+# Data type: bool
+# Default value: False
+# 'id' - Specifies vlan id.
+# Data type: int (NOTE: must fit to 12 bits)
+# Default value: 0
+# 'priority' - Specifies a vlan priority (PCP header field).
+# Data type: int (NOTE: must fit to 3 bits)
+# Default value: 0
+# 'cfi' - Specifies if frames can or cannot be dropped during
+# congestion (DEI header field).
+# Data type: int (NOTE: must fit to 1 bit)
+# Default value: 0
