The flow after duplication is sent into Service Processing Unit by copied cells and is handled, after Service Processing Unit is handled, then The 1st group and the 2nd group of flow are respectively fed to test instrumentation and verified in turn by selecting unit.
At this point, discovery partial discharge cannot be handled normally, test instrumentation shows service request and is rejected.It examines at this time The server resource occupancy situation of monitoring resource module record at this time was looked into, discovery:
1, vCPU:800%/8vCPU.
2, memory: 96%/8G.
3, network: 2G (average flow rate).
Obvious cpu resource is insufficient, therefore redistributes server resource by VIM, at this time 16 vCPU of distribution, again into Row test, server resource occupancy situation are as follows:
1, vCPU:926%/16vCPU.
2, memory: 70%/8G.
3, network: 3G (average flow rate).
The 4th step is repeated, has more than needed until there is server resource, but still has user application the case where being rejected.
5th step it is more than needed to find that server resource has always, but have service request to be rejected always at this time as X=21. At this point, test terminates, the business processing limit capacity for recording the vBRAS is 20 general-purpose families.
The above embodiment of the present invention can use the characteristics of flexible dispatching ability and network element virtualization of SDN, by that will survey Examination flow duplication after be sent into VNF in handled, and by selecting unit polling type verify each test flow all by In the case where correct processing, while increasing duplication coefficient and server resource, finally measures the performance boundary value of VNF.
