Letter Thai BigTao Tester Industrial Switch Test Solution

In an industrial production environment, the network deployed on the production line must have excellent reliability, recoverability, and maintainability to ensure that any device in the network system fails and will not cause operating systems, applications, or even The entire network system crashes or crashes.


At the beginning of the Ethernet design, the application requirements of the industrial network were not taken into account. Therefore, when network equipment is deployed in an industrial site, the stability of ordinary commercial switches will be adverse to the harsh working environment and severe electromagnetic interference. Suffered great challenges, but also put forward higher requirements for the function and quality of network products. How to ensure the leading function and stable quality of products under the premise of controllable costs, and become an unassailable enterprise in the fierce market competition. The key link in the land. The BigTao network test platform from Infotech Technology provides a complete test solution for industrial switch companies to solve this problem.


BigTao Network Tester

The BigTao network tester can realize port-wide line-rate traffic generation, statistics, capture, and parsing, and has a powerful 2-3 layer protocol emulation function that can simulate large-scale real-world network environments. It can meet the testing requirements of 2-3 layers of network equipment from R&D, experiment to production and other aspects.


1. Functional testing (including performance verification)



2-3 protocol simulation test

The above figure shows a typical network equipment test model. The middle part is the network under test (or device under test). The tester simulates two types of network nodes on the two sides. According to the user configuration, it can flexibly produce multiple rate and type protocol packets. Layer 2-3 forwarding performance test, RFC2544/2889 test, route test, and multicast related test of the tested device.


2. System Recovery Time Test (Reliability Verification)


Test number: 2

Project: Reliability Test

Test Subproject: System Recovery Time Test

Test Purpose: Verify Industrial Switch System Recovery Time


Test topology



Testing process:

1. Set up the network environment as shown in the figure to ensure that the status of each connection port is UP;

2. Industrial switches SW1, SW2, SW3 form a loop;

3. Normally, the traffic goes through the AB channel between SW1 and SW2.

4. Suddenly interrupting the AB channel between SW1 and SW2, the traffic is automatically transferred to the CD channel, and enters SW2 through the EF channel of the SW3 switch. After the device is stable, the number of packet loss is calculated and divided by the PPS to obtain the system recovery time.


Test result output form and expected result:

1. Port T1 and port T2 can both send and receive packets normally, without packet loss.

2. After the switch is stable, the port is not lost.


After testing, it was found that different manufacturers of different series of industrial switches, the system recovery time varies widely, ranging from less than 5ms to tens of seconds, the fastest one is only 5ms, slow manufacturers reach 350s, according to the industry standard response time test, Almost half of the manufacturers cannot meet the mandatory requirements of <50ms. In the event of a sudden situation, the network cannot continue to work stably, and cannot recover quickly. It cannot ensure the continuous stability of the industrial network.

Indoor Access Point

An Indoor Access Point is a device for wireless local area networks (WLAN) that provides wireless network coverage and connectivity. It can connect to a wired network and transmit data via a wireless signal, allowing users to connect to the network wirelessly within coverage.

Indoor access points come in a variety of different types and specifications to suit different scenarios and needs. Here are some common types of indoor access points:

1. Single Band Access Point: A single band access point operates in the 2.4GHz band and typically provides a maximum transfer rate of 300Mbps. This type of access point is suitable for small office or home networks because the 2.4GHz band has better penetration and coverage, but a relatively low transfer rate.

2. Dual Band Access Point: The dual band access point supports both 2.4GHz and 5GHz bands, providing higher transmission rates and better performance. The 5GHz band has more interference free channels than the 2.4GHz band, which can provide faster speeds and more stable connections. Dual-frequency access points are suitable for medium sized offices, malls or hotels.

3. Lightweight Access Point: A lightweight access point is a wireless network device that needs to be used with a network controller. Lightweight access points do not have independent management functions themselves, but are centrally managed and configured via a network controller. This type of access point is suitable for large enterprises or organizations to enable centralized management and monitoring of the entire network.

4. Standalone Access Point: A standalone access point is a standalone device that has its own management and configuration functions and does not require additional network controllers. This type of access point is suitable for small businesses or individual users and can provide a simple and easy-to-use wireless networking solution.

5. Scalable Access Point: A scalable access point is a device that can scale on demand, increasing or decreasing the number of access points based on network demand. This type of access point is suitable for places that require flexible scaling, such as large office buildings, schools, or hospitals.

In addition to the types listed above, there are some special purpose indoor access points, such as:

1. Wall-mounted Access Point: A wall-mounted access point can be plugged directly into a Wall power outlet without the need for an additional power cord. This type of access point is suitable for home networks or small offices and can provide easy installation and use.

2. Integrated Antenna Access Point: The antenna of the antenna access point is integrated into the device, and no additional antenna installation is required. This type of access point is suitable for sites that require simple installation and a nice look.

3. Multiple Antenna Access Point: Multiple antenna access points can achieve better signal coverage and performance through multiple antennas. This type of access point is suitable for large venues or high-density user environments, such as conference rooms, stadiums or airports.

To sum up, there are many different types and specifications of indoor access points, which can be selected according to different scenarios and needs. Whether it's a small office, home network or a large enterprise, you can achieve convenient wireless network coverage and connectivity through indoor access points.
