Embodiment 1

[0024] A method for batch testing network cards with NCSI functions, the method uses a router with DHCP function to set up a network test environment, makes a network port loop (loopback), and prepares a server host with BMC shared external network port function , Insert the network card with NCSI function into the PCIE slot of the server, start the server, and use the software to test the network performance of the network card NCSI and the network port.

Embodiment 2

[0026] Such as figure 1 As shown, on the basis of embodiment 1, the specific implementation steps of the method described in this embodiment are as follows:

[0027] 1) Use a router with DHCP service to set up a network environment, and configure the DHCP function of the router;

[0028] 2) Use the network port loopback (loopback) to test the network port, and use the test software to test the external loopback of the external loop of the network card;

[0029] 3) Insert the network card into the server with the BMC shared external network port function, switch the BMC shared network port to the external network card, because the server is a test device, the BMC shared external network port only needs to be set once;

[0030] 4) Connect the network port of the BMC shared network card to the router, and boot into the operating system OS (linux, windows, etc.);

[0031] 5) Use the ipmiutil tool to obtain the BMC shared IP, if there is no IP, the test fails;

[0032] 6) Prompt...

Abstract

The invention discloses a method of batch-testing network cards with an NCSI function. The method comprises the steps of using a router with a DHCP function to build a network test environment, making a network port loopback, preparing a server host with a BMC external network port sharing function, inserting a network card with an NCSI function into a PCIE slot of a server, starting the server, carrying out network card NCSI and network port network performance test through use of software. According to the invention, a cheap router with a DHCP function is used to build a network test environment, a network card with an NCSI function can be tested easily, the test cost is saved greatly, and the test coverage and the output quality of products are improved.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of network card testing, in particular to a method for batch testing network cards with NCSI functions, using cheap routers instead of DHCP servers and switches, and using network port loops instead of network cables to connect servers to batch test network cards with NCSI functions, It greatly saves the testing cost, improves the testing efficiency and the quality of the shipped products. Background technique [0002] In the current server field, many equipment providers have launched network cards with NCSI functions. The network functions of this network card and the BMC remote access interface (NCSI) are integrated on the same network card interface. Batch testing of such network cards generally adopts the following methods in the industry: [0003] Some enterprises set up DHCP servers, switches and other network environments, insert the network card into the server with BMC, use the method of pingDHCP s...
