UNH InterOperability Lab Interoperability & Conformance Testing And Test Suite Harmonization Erica Johnson May, 2007
Overview • UNH-IOL Background • IPv6 Testing Programs • IPv6 Ready Logo • Moonv6 Network Project • UNH-IOL IPv6 Test Suites • Custom Test Tools • IPv6 Equipment Test Bed • Summary
Background and Facilities • Established in 1988 and part of the University of New Hampshire • 100% funded by Commercial companies • Operates 19+ consortiums / services groups • Work with 130+ companies from around the world • 32,000 square foot facility • Largest heterogeneous test beds in N. America • Thousands of traffic generators ports • Hundreds of hosts, routers, switches • Leading-edge test equipment from every major company (Agilent, Empirix, Ixia, Spirent)
Importance of Interoperability Plug-and-play operation independent of who provided the product; works with the user’s environment and applications • Bridges creation and deployment • Provides uncompromised third-party validation • Decreases R&D and support costs • Accelerates time to market • Promotes market acceptance of new technologies
IPv6 Testing Programs Focused IPv6 testing since 1996 • Product Verification • Increased customer confidence • Neutral 3rd party reports verify the functionality of devices • Professional Services • Network Integration Projects • Custom Test Development • Technology Demonstrations • Enhanced Product Awareness • Hold industry wide group testing events • Whitepapers and Press Releases
IPv6 Ready Logo ProgramNorth American Representative Responsibilities Include: • Review N. American applications and results • Cross-check results between labs • Currently perform the following testing as service: • Phase-1 Base Conformance, Interoperability • Phase-2 Base Conformance, Interoperability • Phase-2 IPsec Conformance, Interoperability • Phase-2 IKEv1 Conformance, Interoperability • Phase-2 DHCPv6 Conformance, Interoperability
IPv6 Ready Logo Holders IOL helped the following achieve the IPv6 Ready Logo
Moonv6 Network Project • A collaborative effort led by the North American IPv6 Task Force with • The UNH Interoperability Lab • The U.S. Government's Department of Defense Joint Interoperability Test Command (JITC) • Commercial service providers • The project has 2 aspects • An overlay network on which applications can be shared and end to end testing is performed • Lab-based testing of vendor products • IPv6 deployment testing defined by network operators • Industry updates that demonstrate the current capabilities of IPv6
Moonv6 Test Items • IPv6 Base Specifications • Application Demonstrations • IPv6 Routing • OSPFv3, BGP4+, IS-IS, PIM-SM • IPsec • Firewalls and Access Policy • DHCP and DNS • Transition Mechanisms • IPv4/IPv6 QoS • Mobility
In-lab testing: Conformance Test Suites • IPv6 Ready Logo Phase1/2 Base • IPv6 Ready Logo Phase-2 IPsec • IPv6 Ready Logo Phase-2 DHCPv6 • PIM-SM for IPv6 • RIPng for IPv6 • MLDv1
In-lab testing: Interoperability Test Suites • IPv6 Ready Logo Base Interoperability • ICMP • Autoconfiguration and Duplicate Address Detection (DAD) • Path MTU and Fragmentation • Neighbor Discovery including multiple prefixes and redirects • IPv6 Ready Logo IPsec Interoperability • IPv6 Ready Logo DHCPv6 Interoperability • Application Office Network Interoperability • RIPng • OSPFv3 • BGP-4+ • PIM-SM
Custom Test Tools - TestMonkeyTM • Modular and cross-platform API • Unique Packet Generation • Fully automated protocol analysis and testing capabilities • Currently used by UNH-IOL personnel only for purpose of testing services
