Open publisher page 0 citations

Abstract

As an extendable command script language,Tcl has both good testing ability and flexibility.We introduce the design of an automated testing system for BGP4 and BGP4+ protocol based on Tcl.In our design,we present a distributed virtual testing method aiming at the traits of network protocol testing and add a controlling channel according to the traits of routing protocol testing,in which the implementation is tested by some distributed virtual testers which are under the control of a unified coordinator.We make the testing system automated by scripting the online configuration.We have accomplished the testing of several different implementations of BGP4 and BGP4+ protocol.An example is shown in this paper,and also the future work is discussed.
