V5-dev-bugs
V5 version of WR switch HDL shall include (at least) the following additional feature/modules:
- Topology Resolution Unit
- Time Aware Traffic Shaper
(1) Detection of link failure
- it works fine if we unplug the end of the cable which is downstream
- we have unidirectional traffic:
PC_1
Switch_1>(redundant connection)Switch_2>PC_2 - we unplug (simulate failure) the end of the cable connected to Switch_2
- link-down detection + link killing + switchover is really nice and very few frames are lost
- we have unidirectional traffic:
PC_1
- it does not work fine if we unplug the end of the cable which is
upstream
- we have unidirectional traffic:
PC_1
Switch_1>(redundant connection)Switch_2>PC_2 - we unplug (simulate failure) the end of the cable connected to Switch_1
- link-down detection seems to be too slow (some corrupted frames are received, synch_lost is detected many times
- many frames lost during the switch-over
- we have unidirectional traffic:
PC_1
