Embodiment 1

[0063] The connection and configuration schematic diagram of the Ethernet switch whole machine test system for shared VLAN learning of the present invention can be found in image 3 . The whole Ethernet switch test system of the shared VLAN learning in this embodiment takes the switch under test with 8 ports and the auxiliary test equipment with 8 layer-3 interfaces as an example, wherein the 8 ports of the switch under test are respectively numbered sequentially 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, and 8 ports, and the 8 Layer 3 interfaces of the auxiliary test equipment are respectively numbered 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, and 8 in sequence. Layer interface, the two ports of the network tester are named as port 1 and port 2 respectively.

[0064] In this embodiment, the No. 1 port of the switch under test is connected to the No. 1 port of the network tester, and the No. 2 port of the network tester is connected to the No. 1 layer-3 interface of the auxiliary test device. In the present invention...

Embodiment 2

[0087] Figure 4 It is a schematic diagram of Embodiment 2 of the connection and configuration of the shared VLAN learning Ethernet switch whole machine test system of the present invention. In this embodiment, port No. 1 of the network tester is directly connected to port No. 7 of the auxiliary test device, and port No. 2 of the network tester is directly connected to port No. 3 of the switch under test. In the present invention, other ports of the tested switch are connected one-to-one arbitrarily with other three-layer interfaces of the auxiliary test equipment, so in this embodiment, the No. 1 port of the tested switch is connected with the No. 1 three-layer interface of the auxiliary test equipment, and the tested The No. 2 port of the switch is connected to the No. 2 Layer 3 interface of the auxiliary test equipment, the No. 4 port of the tested switch is connected to the No. 4 Layer 3 interface of the auxiliary test equipment, and the No. 4 port of the tested switch is ...

Embodiment 3

[0104] Figure 5 It is a schematic diagram of Embodiment 3 of the connection and configuration of the shared VLAN learning Ethernet switch whole machine test system of the present invention. In this embodiment, the No. 1 port of the network tester is directly connected to the No. 4 layer-3 interface of the auxiliary test equipment, and the No. 2 port of the network tester is directly connected to the No. 1 port of the switch under test. In the present invention, other ports of the tested switch are connected one-to-one arbitrarily with other three-layer interfaces of the auxiliary test equipment, so in the present embodiment, No. 2 ports of the tested switch are connected with No. 3 three-layer interfaces of the auxiliary test equipment, and the tested The No. 3 port of the switch is connected to the No. 5 Layer 3 interface of the auxiliary test equipment, the No. 4 port of the tested switch is connected to the No. 1 Layer 3 interface of the auxiliary test equipment, and the N...

Abstract

The invention relates to tests in an Ethernet switch, and provides an entire test system and an entire test method for the Ethernet switch. By the system and the method, the problem that a conventional network tester cannot provide abundant test ports to cause the low entire test efficiency of a shared virtual local area network (VLAN) learning Ethernet switch. The technical scheme can be summarized in that: a first port of the network tester is connected with any port of the tested switch, and a second port of the network tester is connected with any layer three interface of auxiliary test equipment; and the other ports of the tested switch are connected one to one with the other layer three interfaces of the auxiliary test equipment. The system and the method have the advantages of improving the test efficiency of the shared VLAN learning Ethernet switch, along with applicability to the tests in the shared VLAN learning Ethernet switch.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to an Ethernet switch testing technology, in particular to a method for testing a whole machine of an Ethernet switch learned by a shared VLAN (Virtual Local Area Network, ie a virtual local area network). Background technique [0002] As an access device in various networks, an Ethernet switch is an important support to ensure the performance of the entire network. With the development of technology, higher requirements are put forward for the overall performance and reliability of Ethernet switches, which not only require Ethernet switches to perform wire-speed forwarding between ports; Under certain conditions, Ethernet switches can also withstand the test of various external environments, such as: harsh climate environment, mechanical environment, EMC, etc. In the overall test of the Ethernet switch, network testers such as IXIA, smartbits, and testcenter are usually used to simulate users in the actual network, send data pac...
