| 1Motivation 2========== 3 4One of the nice things about network namespaces is that they allow one 5to easily create and test complex environments. 6 7Unfortunately, these namespaces can not be used with actual switching 8ASICs, as their ports can not be migrated to other network namespaces --- 32 unchanged lines hidden (view full) --- 41These tests are written with switch ASICs in mind, but they can be run 42on any Linux box using veth pairs to emulate physical loopbacks. 43 44Guidelines for Writing Tests 45============================ 46 47o Where possible, reuse an existing topology for different tests instead 48 of recreating the same topology. | 1Motivation 2========== 3 4One of the nice things about network namespaces is that they allow one 5to easily create and test complex environments. 6 7Unfortunately, these namespaces can not be used with actual switching 8ASICs, as their ports can not be migrated to other network namespaces --- 32 unchanged lines hidden (view full) --- 41These tests are written with switch ASICs in mind, but they can be run 42on any Linux box using veth pairs to emulate physical loopbacks. 43 44Guidelines for Writing Tests 45============================ 46 47o Where possible, reuse an existing topology for different tests instead 48 of recreating the same topology. |
