These were the tests done to validate the Diffserv scripts.
This document will be updated continuously. If you do more
thorough validation testing please post the details to the
diffserv mailing list.
Nevertheless, these tests should serve for basic validation.
AFCBQ, EFCBQ, EFPRIO
----------------------
generate all possible DSCPs and observe that they
get sent to the proper classes. In the case of AF also
to the correct Virtual Queues.
Edge1
-----
generate TOS values 0x0,0x10,0xbb each with IP addresses
10.2.0.24 (mark 1), 10.2.0.3 (mark2) and 10.2.0.30 (mark 3)
and observe that they get marked as expected.
Edge2
-----
-Repeat the tests in Edge1
-ftp with data direction from 10.2.0.2
*observe that the metering/policing works correctly (and the marking
as well). In this case the mark used will be 3
Edge31-cb-chains
----------------
-ftp with data direction from 10.2.0.2
*observe that the metering/policing works correctly (and the marking
as well). In this case the mark used will be 1.
Metering: The data throughput should not exceed 2*CIR1 + 2*CIR2
which is roughly: 5mbps
Marking: the should be a variation of marked packets:
AF41(TOS=0x88) AF42(0x90) AF43(0x98) and BE (0x0)
More tests required to see the interaction of several sources (other
than subnet 10.2.0.0/24).
Edge31-ca-u32
--------------
Generate data using modified tcpblast from 10.2.0.2 (behind eth2) to the
discard port of 10.1.0.2 (behind eth1)
1) generate with src tos = 0x88
Metering: Allocated throughput should not exceed 2*CIR1 + 2*CIR2
approximately 5mbps
Marking: Should vary between 0x88,0x90,0x98 and 0x0
2) generate with src tos = 0x90
Metering: Allocated throughput should not exceed CIR1 + 2*CIR2
approximately 3.5mbps
Marking: Should vary between 0x90,0x98 and 0x0
3) generate with src tos = 0x98
Metering: Allocated throughput should not exceed CIR1 + CIR2
approximately 2.5mbps
Marking: Should vary between 0x98 and 0x0
4) generate with src tos any other than the above
Metering: Allocated throughput should not exceed CIR1
approximately 1.5mbps
Marking: Should be consistent at 0x0
TODO: Testing on how each color shares when all 4 types of packets
are going through the edge device
Edge32-cb-u32, Edge32-cb-chains
-------------------------------
-ftp with data direction from 10.2.0.2
*observe that the metering/policing works correctly (and the marking
as well).
Metering:
The data throughput should not exceed 2*CIR1 + 2*CIR2
+ 2*PIR2 + PIR1 for u32 which is roughly: 6mbps
The data throughput should not exceed 2*CIR1 + 5*CIR2
for chains which is roughly: 6mbps
Marking: the should be a variation of marked packets:
AF41(TOS=0x88) AF42(0x90) AF43(0x98) and BE (0x0)
TODO:
-More tests required to see the interaction of several sources (other
than subnet 10.2.0.0/24).
-More tests needed to capture stats on how many times the CIR was exceeded
but the data was not remarked etc.

Generate data using modified tcpblast from 10.2.0.2 (behind eth2) to the
discard port of 10.1.0.2 (behind eth1)
1) generate with src tos = 0x88

2) generate with src tos = 0x90
Metering: Allocated throughput should not exceed CIR1 + 2*CIR2
