filterTest
Tests frame filters.
Synopsis filtertest [--slot slotnumber][-passcnt passcnt][-txports itemlist][-scamoff offset][-dcamoff offset]
[-fdefoff offset]
Description Use this command to verify the ASIC frame-level filtering logic including every type of filter actions:
FLTACT_LIST_A Action to handle the subgroup A-based filtering.
FLTACT_LIST_B Action to handle the subgroup B-based filtering.
FLTACT_FROZEN Action to handle the frame frozen process.
FLTACT_DISCARD Action to discard frame.
FLTACT_FORWARD
Action to forward frame.
This command can be run on every port and send the frame in internal loopback mode. The filter test
requires two different ports in the same quadrant because the filter logic in the transmitter port cannot
work if the frame is sent directory from the embedded port.
In this test, the filter definition covers the different filtering conditions, shown in the table.
