Project Details:

2. Project #1
Project Name: CFR Project - Vxlan
As part of this project, analyzed the CFRs for last two years for various
chips and customers. Selected the top contributing features and chips which are
contributing CFRs. Vxlan feature was assigned to Me.
∑ Reproduce the CFR.
∑ Prepare test plan for CFRs and related scenarios.
∑ Test the CFRs and related scenarios.
∑ Report the software bugs.
∑ Automate the functional test cases.
Project #2
Project Name: L3SAT feature testing
SAT stands for Service Activation Test. SAT validates the service for the
customer by the service provider before activating the service. The goal is to
check the service is correctly configured and meets the service level agreements
before taking the service online.
∑ Prepare test plan and test the L3SAT feature.
∑ Report the software bugs.
∑ Automate the functional test cases.
Project #3
Project Name: Flexport feature testing
Flexport stands Flexible ports. This feature is intended for Chassis based
systems. The flexport feature enables the user to dynamically change the
switch’s port configuration with no impact. Changing the port rate or number of
serdes required for a port rate are called Flexport operation.
∑ Prepare test plan and test the Flexport feature.
∑ Report the software bugs.
∑ Automate the functional test cases.
Project #4
Project Name: DMVOQ feature testing
Working on DMVOQ feature validation. This feature improves the chasis
utilization. When the congestion happens at the fabric egress module, it sends
the DMVOQ flow control message to the ASIC ingress module. The ASIC module
pauses the respective VOQ. When the congestion clears at the egress of the fabric

3. it again sends a DMVOQ message and ingress module start the respective paused
traffic.
∑ Prepare test plan and test the DMVOQ feature.
∑ Report the software bugs.
∑ Automate the functional test cases.
Project #5
Project Name: Multicast feature testing
