DP-1.8: Two strict priority queue traffic test

Summary

Verify that DUT drops AF3, AF2, AF1, BE1 and BE0 before AF4 before NC1.

QoS traffic test setup:

• Topology:

  • 2 input interfaces and 1 output interface with the same port speed. The interface can be a physical interface or LACP bundle interface with the same aggregated speed.

    ATE port 1
        |
       DUT--------ATE port 3
        |
    ATE port 2
  

• Traffic classes:

  • We will use 7 traffic classes NC1, AF4, AF3, AF2, AF1, BE1 and BE0.

• Traffic types:

  • All the traffic tests apply to both IPv4 and IPv6 traffic.

• Queue types:

  • NC1 will have strict priority queues
    • AF4/AF3/AF2/AF1/BE1/BE0 will use WRR queues.
  • NC1 and AF4 will have strict priority queues with NC1 having higher priority.
    • AF3, AF2, AF1, BE1 and BE0 will use WRR queues.

• Test results should be independent of the location of interfaces. For example, 2 input interfaces and output interface could be located on

  • Same ASIC-based forwarding engine
  • Different ASIC-based forwarding engine on same line card
  • Different ASIC-based forwarding engine on different line cards

• Test results should be the same for port speeds 100G and 400G.

• Counters should be also verified for each test case:

  • /qos/interfaces/interface/output/queues/queue/state/transmit-pkts
  • /qos/interfaces/interface/output/queues/queue/state/dropped-pkts
  • transmit-pkts should be equal to the number of Rx pkts on Ixia port
  • dropped-pkts should be equal to diff between the number of Tx and the number Rx pkts on Ixia ports

• Latency:

  • Should be < 100000ns

Procedure

• Connect DUT port-1 to ATE port-1, DUT port-2 to ATE port-2 and DUT port-3 to ATE port-3.

• Configuration

  • Configure strict priority queues for NC1 and AF4 with NC1 having higher priority.
  • Configure WRR for AF3, AF2, AF1, BE1 and BE0 with weight 12, 8, 4, 2 and 1 respectively.

• NC1 vs AF4 Strict priority traffic test

  • Non-oversubscription traffic test case

  Traffic class	Interface1(line rate %)	Interface2(line rate %)	Rx from interface1(%)	Rx from interface2(%)
  NC1	0.1	0.7	100	100
  AF4	45.1	54.1	100	100

  • Oversubscription traffic test case

  Traffic class	Interface1(line rate %)	Interface2(line rate %)	Rx from interface1(%)	Rx from interface2(%)
  NC1	0.1	0.7	100	100
  AF4	99.9	99.3	49.8	49.8

• Repeat the above 2 test cases between traffic classes:

  • NC1 vs AF3
  • NC1 vs AF2
  • NC1 vs AF1
  • NC1 vs BE1
  • NC1 vs BE0

• Strict priority vs WRR traffic test

  • Starvation traffic test case

  Traffic class	Interface1(line rate %)	Interface2(line rate %)	Rx from interface1(%)	Rx from interface2(%)
  AF4	50	50	100	100
  AF3	50	50	0	0

  • Oversubscription traffic test case

  Traffic class	Interface1(line rate %)	Interface2(line rate %)	Rx from interface1(%)	Rx from interface2(%)
  AF4	20	30	100	100
  AF3	60	40	50	50

• Repeat the above 2 test cases between traffic classes:

  • AF4 vs AF2
  • AF4 vs AF1
  • AF4 vs BE1
  • AF4 vs BE0
