RFC2544: Pkt throughput L2BD with IEEE 802.1Q test cases

  • [Top] Network Topologies: TG-DUT1-TG 2-node circular topology with single links between nodes.

  • [Enc] Packet Encapsulations: Dot1q-IPv4 for L2 switching of IPv4. IEEE 802.1Q tagging is applied on both links TG-DUT1.

  • [Cfg] DUT configuration: DUT1 is configured with: 2 VLAN subinterfaces (VID 100 and 200), 1 L2 BD with the 2 VLAN subinterfaces. DUT1 is tested with Intel-X553 with VF enabled.

  • [Ver] TG verification: TG finds and reports throughput NDR (Non Drop Rate) with zero packet loss tolerance and throughput PDR (Partial Drop Rate) with non-zero packet loss tolerance (LT) expressed in percentage of packets transmitted. NDR and PDR are discovered for different Ethernet L2 frame sizes using MLRsearch library.

Test packets are generated by TG on links to DUT1. TG traffic profile contains two L3 flow-groups (flow-group per direction, 254 flows per flow-group) with all packets containing Ethernet header, IPv4 header with IP protocol=61 and static payload. MAC addresses are matching MAC addresses of the TG node interfaces.

  • [Ref] Applicable standard specifications: RFC2544.

RFC2544: Pkt throughput L2patch test cases

  • [Top] Network Topologies: TG-DUT1-TG 2-node circular topology with single links between nodes.

  • [Enc] Packet Encapsulations: Eth-IPv4 for L2 patch.

  • [Cfg] DUT configuration: DUT1 is configured with L2 patch DUT1 is tested with Intel-X553.

  • [Ver] TG verification: TG finds and reports throughput NDR (Non Drop Rate) with zero packet loss tolerance and throughput PDR (Partial Drop Rate) with non-zero packet loss tolerance (LT) expressed in percentage of packets transmitted. NDR and PDR are discovered for different Ethernet L2 frame sizes using MLRsearch library.

Test packets are generated by TG on links to DUTs. TG traffic profile contains two L3 flow-groups (flow-group per direction, 254 flows per flow-group) with all packets containing Ethernet header, IPv4 header with static payload MAC addresses are matching MAC addresses of the TG node interfaces.

  • [Ref] Applicable standard specifications: RFC2544.
