Protocol testing device

Abstract

The invention discloses a protocol testing device, comprising a case using and reading module which is used for providing an interface to a testing case storage unit, an allocation obtaining module which is used for obtaining the allocation document of the test case using from the test case using storage module by the case using and reading module, a message processing module which is used for responding the message type of the tested protocol software network according to the configuration file, and the message document of the corresponding type of the testing using case is obtained from the testing case storage unit by the case using and reading module, and a document transmission module which is used for transmitting the message document of the corresponding type to the tested software network, wherein, the protocol test device is started by command traveling mode. By the invention, the abnormal case beyond the protocol range can be effectively tested, thereby greatly improving the stability and adaptability.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to the communication field, and more specifically relates to a protocol testing device. Background technique [0002] Such as Optical transmission network (OTN for short), Wavelength-division multiplexing (WDM for short), Synchronous digital hierarchy (SDH for short) or Synchronous optical network (SONET for short) The optical network of the transport network has been widely used in the field of telecommunications. [0003] Automatic switched optical network (ASON for short) is a research hotspot in the field of optical network in recent years. The ITU-TG.8080 suggestion puts forward the concept of ASON, and completes the functions of the ASON network by setting a special control plane (Control plane, CP for short). The IEIF series of proposals (including RFC2205, RFC2328, etc.) proposed the ASON protocol implementation. [0004] However, for how to test these ASON protocols, especially in the late stage of testing, or ...

Problems solved by technology

[0007] In the first solution, the protocol software acts as both the tester and the tested party, which has obvious defects, and once a fault is found during the networking test, it is difficult to locate the fault, and it is also difficult to test the robustness of the protocol

In the second scheme, because the test instrument is developed according to the standard of the agreement, it is difficult to test the abnormal situation of the agreement software beyond the scope of the agreement, and for the test instrument, it is necessary to pass the test before each test. Graphical User Interface (GUI for short) configuration, it is difficult to meet the requirements of automated testing, especially for the restart test of protocol software, each restart test case requires manual intervention, which is not conducive to automated testing
