Problems solved by technology

[0005] Because the traditional test method occupies more resources, requires a higher number of tester ports, more tester settings, and requires testers to monitor multiple flows at the same time, in order to improve this situation, a method similar to VLAN technology is proposed Combined Switch Stability Test Method

Embodiment

[0034] Example: as attached figure 1 As shown, 1 is the switch, 2 is the network tester, the ellipse part is the configured VLAN, and the numbers 1, 2, 3...23 are the ports 23 ports ge0, ge1...ge23. Now take this as an example, the specific operation The steps are described below.

[0035] Step 1: As attached figure 1 The switch and network tester are connected as shown, and the switch ports are connected in a serpentine network.

[0036] Step 2: Configure the corresponding untagged VLAN and port attribute PVlan on the switch.

[0037] Step 2.1: Configure untagged VLAN. Divide every two ports of the switch into an untagged VLAN, port ge0 and ge1 are divided into VLAN 10, ports ge2 and ge3 are divided into VLAN 20, and so on, all ports are untagged ports.

[0038] The switch reference configuration command in step 2.1 is as follows:

[0039] BCM.0>vlan remove 1 pbm=ge0-ge23

[0040] BCM.0>vlan create 10 pbm=ge0-ge1 ubm=ge0-ge1

[0041] BCM.0>vlan create 20...

Abstract

The invention provides a method for testing the stability of a switch. The method specifically comprises the following steps of: interconnecting a front port and a tail port of the switch with two communication ports of a network tester respectively, and interconnecting each port of the switch in a serpentine networking way; configuring a corresponding untagged virtual local area network (VLAN) and a port attribute Pvlan on the switch, wherein the untagged VLAN is a VLAN without tags, and the Pvlan is a private VLAN; and transmitting test traffic from one port to the other port of the network tester. Compared with the prior art, the method for testing the stability of the switch has the advantages that a piece of test traffic sequentially flows through all the ports of the switch instantly in a serpentine way to achieve a full load effect, test work is simpler and easier, and the method is easy to popularize and use.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of switch testing, in particular to a switch stability testing method based on a VLAN-based serpentine networking mode. Background technique [0002] In switch testing, how to conveniently and effectively utilize limited resources for stability testing has always been a problem that plagues switch testers. [0003] The traditional switch stability test method needs to connect each port of the switch to the port of the tester, and the tester sends multiple test traffic to make the switch fully loaded for testing, as shown in the attached figure 1 As shown, the tester must ensure that the number of its own ports is not less than the number of switch ports in order to meet the stability test requirements. This method obviously occupies too much equipment resources. If the number of test equipment interfaces is limited, the equipment under test cannot meet the requirements of the full load test, such a test is ...
