Device and method for testing network switching equipment

Abstract

The invention provides a device and a method for testing network switching equipment, wherein the device comprises: a main control unit connected with a test execution unit and an Ethernet interface treatment unit respectively and used for sending a test command to the test execution unit, receiving test results and sending port switching control information to the Ethernet interface treatment unit; the Ethernet interface treatment unit used for mutually connecting a plurality of ports of the unit according to the switching control information; and the test execution unit used for receiving the test command to configure a tested system veneer and further used for sending out test data through the test port, comparing returned data with the test data and reporting the test results to the main control unit. By the application of the technology provided by the invention, special instruments are not needed, and all main composition units are acquired easily and have low cost and no technical difficulties, thus being beneficial to the reduction of cost input for testing equipment; and the method can test the functions of the tested system veneer conveniently and rapidly, thus being suitable for the production test of the network switching system veneers produced in large scale.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to the testing technology of network switching equipment, in particular to a device and method for testing network switching equipment. Background technique [0002] With the extensive application of IP technology in the process of R&D, debugging and production of communication equipment, more and more network switching devices are used in communication equipment. At present, there are various mature test standards and test methods for the test of network switching equipment, and there are many mature products of corresponding test software and test instruments, but most of these test instruments are aimed at the communication of a single network port or dual network ports. The performance test is more suitable for the research and development test of network switching equipment and the performance test of the whole system, but cannot be adapted to the rapid test when the network switching equipment is mass-produced.
