Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the field of equipment testing, and in particular to a power on / off testing method based on a PON product. Background Art

[0002] With the rapid development of broadband access technology, PON technology has been widely used in FTTH (Fiber To The Home) construction due to its advantages such as high bandwidth, long-distance transmission and low cost. As a key component of the PON network, the performance stability of PON terminal products directly affects the user's network experience. Therefore, it is particularly important to conduct comprehensive performance testing on PON terminal products during the production, research and development and quality control process.

[0003] Power on and off test is a basic and key test link in the performance test of PON terminal products. The traditional power on and off test method mainly relies on manual operation. Testers need to manually power on and off each PON terminal product, and check whether the device is successfully started and whether the network function is normal by observing the indicator status or using command line tools. This method has the following shortcomings: Low test efficiency: Manual operation takes a long time, and as the number of tests increases, the test efficiency drops sharply, making it difficult to meet the needs of large-scale production testing.

[0004] Poor test consistency: Manual operation is easily affected by subjective factors, such as operation strength and speed, which makes it difficult to ensure the consistency of test results.

[0005] Limited test coverage: Traditional methods make it difficult to test a large number of PON terminal products simultaneously, limiting test coverage and test efficiency.

[0006] Unable to monitor in real time: Manual testing makes it difficult to record and monitor detailed data during the test process in real time, which is not conducive to subsequent problem analysis and performance evaluation. Summary of the invention

[0007] The purpose of the present invention is to overcome the shortcomings of the prior art and provide a power on / off test method based on a PON product, comprising the following steps: Set static IP addresses for multiple PON terminal products to be tested. Each product to be tested has a unique IP address and MAC address, and is in the same network segment as the IP address of the host computer. The PON terminal product to be tested is powered on by a power supply, and the host computer software controls the repeated power-on and power-off of the PON terminal product to be tested through a relay; the host computer is connected to a multi-port switch through RJ45, and the switch is connected to the PON terminal product to be tested; The host computer pings the set IP address of the PON terminal product to be tested to determine whether the PON terminal product to be tested has been powered on and started normally, thereby completing the power on and off test of the PON product.

[0008] Furthermore, the host computer pings the set IP address of the PON terminal product to be tested, determines whether the PON terminal product to be tested has been powered on and started normally, and completes the power on and off test of the PON product, including: The PON terminal product to be tested is registered through the OLT service board, and the upstream board of the OLT and the PON terminal product to be tested are written to the same VLAN; the PON terminal product to be tested is connected to the PC or set-top box through the network port and assigned an IP address; the host computer test software pings the IP address of the PC or set-top box, controls the on and off of the PON terminal product to be tested by controlling the relay, and at the same time determines the startup status of the PON terminal product to be tested and whether the PON network function is normal.

[0009] Furthermore, the control of the relay to control the on and off of the PON terminal product to be tested and the determination of the startup status of the PON terminal product to be tested and whether the PON network function is normal include: automatic on / off test of pingPON port and automatic on / off test of pingWIFI.

[0010] Furthermore, the automatic power on / off test of the pingPON port includes: After the PON terminal product to be tested is powered on, the registration status of the OLT service board and the ping result of the host computer to the set IP address are used to determine whether the PON network is normal during the power on and off process.

[0011] Furthermore, the automatic power on / off test of pingWIFI includes: The host computer is connected to a multi-port switch via RJ45, and the multiple ports of the switch are connected to the PON terminal product to be tested via RJ45 respectively; the external PC or set-top box is connected to the PON terminal product to be tested via WIFI; the host computer test software pings the IP address of the PC or set-top box to determine the startup status of the PON terminal product to be tested and whether the WIFI function is normal; a loop from the host computer-switch-OLT-PON terminal product to be tested-PC / set-top box is formed, and the relay is controlled by the host computer to control the on and off of the PON terminal product to be tested.

[0012] Furthermore, it also includes evaluating the power on / off performance, PON network function and WIFI function stability of the PON terminal product to be tested based on the recorded test results.

[0013] The beneficial effects of the present invention are: the relay is controlled by the host computer software to realize the automatic power on and power off of the product to be tested, and the device status is monitored by the ping command, which greatly shortens the test time and improves the test efficiency. Especially for large-scale production testing, the present invention can significantly reduce the manual operation time and improve production efficiency.

[0014] Ensure test consistency: The automated test system can perform tests strictly according to the preset test process, avoiding subjective interference caused by manual operation and ensuring the consistency of test results. This helps to accurately evaluate the performance stability of the product and provide a reliable basis for quality control.

[0015] Expanding the test coverage: The present invention can test multiple products to be tested at the same time, greatly expanding the test coverage. This is of great significance for the research and development testing of new products, the quality control of production lines, and the post-maintenance of products.

[0016] Real-time monitoring and recording: The host computer software can record and monitor detailed data in real time during the test, including the startup time of the device, network function status, etc. These data provide strong support for subsequent problem analysis and performance evaluation, helping to quickly locate the cause of the problem and optimize product performance.

[0017] The above method can also be used to test products such as routers, cloud boxes, converged gateways, government and enterprise gateways, CPE, and wireless kittens. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0020] The features and performance of the present invention are further described in detail below in conjunction with the embodiments.

[0021] like Figure 1 As shown, the power on / off test method based on the PON product includes the following steps: Set static IP addresses for multiple PON terminal products to be tested. Each product to be tested has a unique IP address and MAC address, and is in the same network segment as the IP address of the host computer. The PON terminal product to be tested is powered on by a power supply, and the host computer software controls the repeated power-on and power-off of the PON terminal product to be tested through a relay; the host computer is connected to a multi-port switch through RJ45, and the switch is connected to the PON terminal product to be tested; The host computer pings the set IP address of the PON terminal product to be tested to determine whether the PON terminal product to be tested has been powered on and started normally, thereby completing the power on and off test of the PON product.

[0022] The host computer pings the set IP address of the PON terminal product to be tested, determines whether the PON terminal product to be tested has been powered on and started normally, and completes the power on and off test of the PON product, including: The PON terminal product to be tested is registered through the OLT service board, and the upstream board of the OLT and the PON terminal product to be tested are written to the same VLAN; the PON terminal product to be tested is connected to the PC or set-top box through the network port and assigned an IP address; the host computer test software pings the IP address of the PC or set-top box, controls the on and off of the PON terminal product to be tested by controlling the relay, and at the same time determines the startup status of the PON terminal product to be tested and whether the PON network function is normal.

[0023] The control relay is used to control the on / off of the PON terminal product to be tested, and the startup state of the PON terminal product to be tested and whether the PON network function is normal are determined, including: automatic on / off test of pingPON port and automatic on / off test of pingWIFI.

[0024] The automatic power on / off test of the pingPON port includes: After the PON terminal product to be tested is powered on, the registration status of the OLT service board and the ping result of the host computer to the set IP address are used to determine whether the PON network is normal during the power on and off process.

[0025] The automatic power on / off test of pingWIFI includes: The host computer is connected to a multi-port switch via RJ45, and the multiple ports of the switch are connected to the PON terminal product to be tested via RJ45 respectively; the external PC or set-top box is connected to the PON terminal product to be tested via WIFI; the host computer test software pings the IP address of the PC or set-top box to determine the startup status of the PON terminal product to be tested and whether the WIFI function is normal; a loop from the host computer-switch-OLT-PON terminal product to be tested-PC / set-top box is formed, and the relay is controlled by the host computer to control the on and off of the PON terminal product to be tested.

[0026] It also includes evaluating the power on and off performance of the PON terminal product to be tested, the stability of the PON network function and the WIFI function based on the recorded test results.

[0027] Specifically, a power on / off test method based on a PON product includes the following steps: Set IP address: Set static IP addresses for multiple PON terminal products to be tested. Each product to be tested has a unique IP address and MAC address, and is in the same network segment as the IP address of the host computer. This step ensures the unique identifiability of each product to be tested in the network, providing a basis for subsequent network communication and testing.

[0028] Connecting equipment: Power on the PON terminal product to be tested through the power supply, and the host computer software controls the repeated power on and off of the PON terminal product to be tested through the relay. The host computer is connected to the multi-port switch through RJ45, and the switch is connected to the PON terminal product to be tested. This step establishes the physical connection of the test system and provides hardware support for subsequent automated testing.

[0029] Execute the test: The host computer pings the set IP address of the PON terminal product to be tested, determines whether the PON terminal product to be tested has been powered on and started normally, and completes the power on and off test of the PON product. Figure 2 As shown, the host computer test software will periodically send ping requests to the IP address of the product to be tested, and determine whether the device is online based on the response, thereby determining the startup status of the device.

[0030] The host computer pings the set IP address of the PON terminal product to be tested, determines whether the PON terminal product to be tested has been powered on and started normally, and completes the power on and off test of the PON product, and also includes the following steps: Registration and VLAN configuration: The PON terminal product to be tested is registered through the OLT service board, and the OLT upstream board and the PON terminal product to be tested are written into the same VLAN. This step ensures that the product to be tested can correctly access the PON network and conduct subsequent network communication tests.

[0031] Network connection and IP allocation: The PON terminal product to be tested is connected to the PC or set-top box through the network port and assigned an IP address. This step simulates the network connection in the actual usage scenario and provides a basis for testing the WIFI function.

[0032] Ping test and relay control: The host computer test software pings the IP address of the PC or set-top box, controls the relay to control the on and off of the PON terminal product to be tested, and determines the startup status of the PON terminal product to be tested and whether the PON network function is normal. This step realizes the automatic control of the device power on and off process, and combines the ping command to monitor the network function of the device.

[0033] The control relay is used to control the on / off of the PON terminal product to be tested, and the startup status of the PON terminal product to be tested and whether the PON network function is normal are determined, specifically including the automatic on / off test of pingPON port and the automatic on / off test of pingWIFI: like Figure 3 As shown in the figure, the automatic power on / off test of the pingPON port: after the PON terminal product to be tested is powered on, the registration status of the OLT service board and the ping result of the host computer to the set IP address are used to determine whether the PON network is normal during the power on / off process. This test ensures that the PON terminal product can maintain normal communication with the OLT during the power on / off process, and verifies the basic functions of the PON network.

[0034] like Figure 4 As shown in the figure, the automatic power on and off test of pingWIFI: the host computer is connected to a multi-port switch via RJ45, and the multi-ports of the switch are connected to the PON terminal product to be tested via RJ45; the external PC or set-top box is connected to the PON terminal product to be tested via WIFI; the host computer test software pings the IP address of the PC or set-top box to determine the startup status of the PON terminal product to be tested and whether the WIFI function is normal; a loop from the host computer-switch-OLT-PON terminal product to be tested-PC / set-top box is formed, and the relay is controlled by the host computer to control the on and off of the PON terminal product to be tested. This test verifies the stability of the WIFI function of the PON terminal product during the power on and off process, ensuring that users can smoothly access the network through WIFI.

[0035] In addition, the present invention also includes evaluating the power-on and power-off performance, PON network function and WIFI function stability of the PON terminal product to be tested according to the recorded test results. This step provides a strong basis for product performance optimization and quality control by analyzing and processing the test data.

[0036] Example: Automatic power on / off test based on the pingPON port of a PON product Set IP address: Set static IP addresses for the 10 PON terminal products to be tested, ensuring that each product has a unique IP address and MAC address. For example, the IP address range is set to 192.168.1.10 to 192.168.1.19, and is in the same network segment as the host computer's IP address (such as 192.168.1.1).

[0037] Connect your device: Power on the PON terminal product to be tested through the power supply. The host computer is connected to a multi-port switch through the RJ45 interface, and the multiple ports of the switch are connected to 10 PON terminal products to be tested through RJ45 lines. The host computer is installed with test software, which can control the power on and off of the PON terminal product to be tested through a relay.

[0038] Registration and VLAN configuration: The PON terminal product to be tested is registered through the OLT service board, ensuring that the OLT upstream board and the PON terminal product to be tested are written to the same VLAN so that they can communicate in the same network.

[0039] Executing the test Automatic power on / off test of pingPON port: The host computer test software starts, and first controls the relay to power on all PON terminal products to be tested. After the PON terminal products to be tested are powered on, they are registered through the OLT service board. The host computer monitors the registration status on the OLT to confirm that all products have been successfully registered. The host computer test software periodically (e.g., every 10 seconds) sends ping requests to the set IP address of each PON terminal product to be tested. Based on the ping response, the host computer determines whether each PON terminal product to be tested is online and records the startup time.

[0040] The test software controls the relay to power off each PON terminal product to be tested in turn, and then power it on again. This process is repeated multiple times (e.g., 5 times). A ping test is performed after each power-on to verify the stability of the PON network during the power-on and power-off process.

[0041] The host computer test software records the results of each ping test, including response time, number of successes / failures, etc. Based on the recorded data, the power-on and power-off performance of the PON terminal product to be tested is evaluated, such as the consistency of the startup time, the reliability of powering on after power failure, etc. At the same time, the performance of the PON network function during the power-on and power-off process is analyzed, such as the registration success rate, communication stability, etc.

[0042] Based on the evaluation results, optimize the product performance, such as adjusting the firmware and hardware design, to improve the product quality and stability.
