Embodiment Construction

[0033] The present invention will be further described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and embodiments.

[0034] figure 1 is a flowchart of an embodiment of the present invention. Such as figure 1 As shown, the present invention includes at least one test procedure combined in any order: full load load test, flow impact test, continuous operation test, limit test and environmental stress test. In this embodiment, the testing method includes: 1. Connecting the sample machine under test and the flow generator. In this embodiment, the tested prototype is connected to the flow generator with a network cable (category five twisted pair) and an optical fiber. 2. Set up the prototype to be tested. Set the port mode of the tested prototype to self-adaptive, turn off the flow control function, and all ports are in the default state, for example, the default state of all ports is in VLAN1 by default. 3. Set the traffic generator. Set the port speed of...

Abstract

The invention discloses a method of testing stability of an Ethernet exchanger, including: 1, connecting all the ports of a sample machine to a flux generator; 2, setting port mode as self-adapting, closing flow control function, to make all the ports in a default state; 3, setting port speed of the generator as line speed and frame length random; also including: at least one of full-load testing, flux impact testing, sustained operation testing, limit testing and environmental stress testing, combined in arbitrary sequence to completely test stability of the Ethernet exchanger. Compared with existing techniques, it has broad covering area, high efficiency, remarkable effect and high resources utilization, achieves testing purpose, saves testing time and expenses, and enhance success rate of testing, and avoids heavy losses of users and product suppliers.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the testing field, in particular to a testing method for an Ethernet switch. Background technique [0002] With the establishment of the market dominance of IP network technology, Ethernet switches that can realize high-performance exchange of IP datagrams have been recognized by the market and widely used, but there are also a large number of inferior switches with poor stability, frequent crashes or business interruptions in the market. products, causing huge losses to users. Therefore, how to detect the stability of an Ethernet switch has become a problem that users and manufacturers are very concerned about. The existing Ethernet switch stability testing technology is relatively simple. Usually, the business traffic is run on the switch. The test period is generally one week or longer, and the stability of the switch is judged by checking whether the tested prototype is abnormal. The disadvantages of the prior art are: th...
