 SwitchTempTest (SP): Gets the temperature (in degrees Celsius and can be negative) of
the Ethernet switch. Obtained temperature value will be compared with the minimum and
maximum values of the chipset given in the specification.
 NwMemAcessTest (SP): Accesses various memory areas (listed below), accessible by the
device and performs Pattern read/write operations (incremental values, random values
and 0xAA, 0x55) on the memory area. This test ensures the device is able to access those
memories for read and write operations. Frequent failures of this test can be treated as
malfunctioning hardware.
Applicable memory types:
– Buffer DRAM
– MAC table memory
– VLAN table memory
 NwCntlrRegAcessTest (SP): Tests the ability to read and write into device registers that
are accessible by writing various patterns ( 0xAA_0x55, Random value, Bit Toggle,
incremental) in to them. This test ensures the accessibility of registers by Switch. Frequent
failures of this test can be treated as malfunctioning hardware.
 TcamSelfTest (SP): Invokes the built-in self test of the Ternary Content Addressable
Memory (TCAM) on both policy control lists and router sections. This test does not restore
data relevant TCAM area. This test ensures TCAM accessible to the switch. Frequent
failures of this test can be treated malfunctioning hardware.
 NetworkThroughputServ: Starts the server for network throughput testing.
 NetworkThroughput: Tests the network throughput.
 NetworkTxBenchMark (SP): Checks the transmission rate of interface.
The TcamSelfTest is destructive test and cannot be run during presence of network traffic.
Board reboot is required after every run of this test.
