Quickstart guide for ILA
========================

1) It's recommended that you read the ILA README which is in
   https://github.com/quantonium/ila/blob/master/README and familiarize
   yourself with ILA commands as well as ILA terminology and basic architecture

2) Ubunutu is recommended. README.install is a sourceable script on Ubuntu

3) Linux kernel version 4.15 or later is required for ILA. See
   https://www.kernel.org/ and follow instructions for loading a supported
   kernel version

4) Instructions for installing ILA are in README.install. This can be
   sourced on Ubuntu by:

   wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/quantonium/ila/master/README.install -O /tmp/README.install
   source /tmp/README.install

5) A basic test of ILA with an emulated RAN network using network is described
   in https://github.com/quantonium/ila/blob/master/src/ila/test/README. To
   run the test do:

   export QDIR=~/quantonium/install
   cd ~/quantonium/ila/src/ila/test
   ./mnet_conf
   ./run_ns ue_1 ping6 3333::44

6) If all went well the ping6 should succeed and ILA is being used over
   the emulated RAN

7) The next step is probably to bring up the ILA-GTP-VPP code and
   run the standalone test for that. Instructions to install, build,
   run VPP, and to run the standalone test (emulated calls) are in
   https://raw.githubusercontent.com/quantonium/vpp/feature/gtp-up/README.vpp
