1. Introduction
1. 介绍

An IPFIX implementation, whether in software, firmware, or hardware, needs to be tested thoroughly in order to check its robustness and gain confidence in the conformity to the IPFIX documents on which it is based.

IPFIX实施,无论是在软件、固件还是硬件中,都需要进行彻底测试,以检查其健壮性,并对其所依据的IPFIX文档的一致性获得信心。

For a testable IPFIX software tool kit, one needs at least one IPFIX Exporting Process and one IPFIX Collecting Process. However, when one has, for example, only implemented a Collector, then it can be complemented with a third-party Exporter for these tests.

对于可测试的IPFIX软件工具包,至少需要一个IPFIX导出过程和一个IPFIX收集过程。但是,例如,如果只实现了收集器,则可以使用第三方导出器来补充这些测试。

This document specifies guidelines for a series of tests that can be run on the IPFIX Exporting Process and Collecting Process in order to probe the conformity and robustness of the IPFIX protocol implementations.

本文件规定了可在IPFIX导出过程和收集过程上运行的一系列测试的指南,以探索IPFIX协议实施的一致性和健壮性。

The tests listed here can form a valuable common basis for implementers involved in interoperability testing when all of them use these tests to check their own Exporting Process and Collecting Process implementation first.

当所有参与互操作性测试的实现者都使用这些测试来检查自己的导出流程和首先收集流程实现时,这里列出的测试可以为他们提供一个有价值的通用基础。

The tests can be executed in a testbed environment or on a live network.

这些测试可以在测试台环境或实时网络上执行。

However, care should be taken regarding the "stress/load test" and the "temporary network disconnect", as they might impact other systems in the network. We recommend that these specific tests should be executed only in a testbed environment.

但是,应注意“压力/负载测试”和“临时网络断开”,因为它们可能会影响网络中的其他系统。我们建议这些特定的测试只能在测试环境中执行。

1.1. Document Scope
1.1. 文件范围

This document lists tests intended to be performed between an implementation of an IPFIX Exporting Process and an IPFIX Collecting Process. For some tests, multiple instances of each of those components (Observation Points, Metering Process, Exporting Process, Collecting Process) are involved. The testing of those different IPFIX components complicates the testing as usually one tests his software against an existing implementation, which is proven to be compliant. In some cases, two unproven implementations of the Exporting Process and Collecting Process must be tested against each other. The tests range from basic transport connectivity to export of Template and associated Data Records, high load on the Collecting Process, and error condition situations. This document is not intended as a replacement for formal testing software procedures based on, e.g., TTCN3 (http://www.ttcn-3.org/) but as a best-practices approach to an informal testing of a developer's IPFIX implementation.

本文档列出了在IPFIX导出过程和IPFIX收集过程之间执行的测试。对于某些测试,每个组件(观察点、计量过程、导出过程、收集过程)都涉及多个实例。这些不同的IPFIX组件的测试使测试变得复杂,因为通常有人会针对现有的实现测试自己的软件,而现有的实现被证明是兼容的。在某些情况下,导出过程和收集过程的两个未经验证的实现必须相互测试。测试范围从基本传输连接到模板和相关数据记录的导出、收集过程的高负载以及错误情况。本文件不打算取代基于TTCN3等标准的正式测试软件程序(http://www.ttcn-3.org/)但作为对开发人员的IPFIX实现进行非正式测试的最佳实践方法。

1.2. IPFIX Documents Overview
1.2. IPFIX文档概述

The IPFIX protocol [RFC5101] provides network administrators with access to IP Flow information. The architecture for the export of measured IP Flow information out of an IPFIX Exporting Process to a Collecting Process is defined in [RFC5470], per the requirements specified in [RFC3917].

IPFIX协议[RFC5101]为网络管理员提供了访问IP流信息的权限。根据[RFC3917]中规定的要求,[RFC5470]中定义了将测量的IP流信息从IPFIX导出过程导出到收集过程的体系结构。

[RFC5470] specifies how IPFIX Data Records and Templates are carried via a congestion-aware transport protocol from IPFIX Exporting Processes to IPFIX Collecting Processes. IPFIX has a formal description of IPFIX Information Elements, their name, type, and additional semantic information, as specified in [RFC5102]. Finally, [RFC5472] describes what type of applications can use the IPFIX protocol and how they can use the information provided. It furthermore shows how the IPFIX framework relates to other architectures and frameworks.

[RFC5470]指定如何通过拥塞感知传输协议将IPFIX数据记录和模板从IPFIX导出进程传送到IPFIX收集进程。IPFIX对IPFIX信息元素、它们的名称、类型和附加语义信息进行了形式化描述,如[RFC5102]中所述。最后,[RFC5472]描述了什么类型的应用程序可以使用IPFIX协议,以及它们如何使用提供的信息。它还展示了IPFIX框架与其他体系结构和框架的关系。

2. Terminology
2. 术语

IPFIX-specific terminology used in this document is defined in Section 2 of [RFC5101]. In this document, as in [RFC5101], the first letter of each IPFIX-specific term is capitalized.

[RFC5101]第2节定义了本文件中使用的IPFIX专用术语。在本文件中,与[RFC5101]中一样,每个IPFIX特定术语的首字母大写。

2.1. Conventions Used in This Document
2.1. 本文件中使用的公约

The key words "MUST", "MUST NOT", "REQUIRED", "SHALL", "SHALL NOT", "SHOULD", "SHOULD NOT", "RECOMMENDED", "MAY", and "OPTIONAL" in this document are to be interpreted as described in [RFC2119].

本文件中的关键词“必须”、“不得”、“必需”、“应”、“不应”、“应”、“不应”、“建议”、“可”和“可选”应按照[RFC2119]中所述进行解释。

3. Test Specifications
3. 测试规范

The tests described in this section MAY be performed using an IPFIX Exporting Process on one host and an IPFIX Collecting Process on a different host. The configuration of the Observation Point, Metering Process, Exporting Process, and Collection Process SHOULD be recorded for every test along with the test results.

可以在一台主机上使用IPFIX导出进程,在另一台主机上使用IPFIX收集进程来执行本节中描述的测试。每次试验应记录观测点配置、计量过程、输出过程和收集过程以及试验结果。

The successful execution of all tests described in this section will give the tester a high confidence that the tested implementation is conformant with the IPFIX architecture and protocol. It does however not provide a 100% comprehensive coverage or formal proof of conformance.

成功执行本节中描述的所有测试将使测试人员对测试的实现符合IPFIX体系结构和协议有很高的信心。但是,它没有提供100%的全面覆盖范围或正式的合规性证明。

3.1. Exporting Process/Collecting Process Connectivity Tests
3.1. 导出进程/收集进程连接测试

This section lists the basic tests that are preconditions for the more complex tests specified in later sections of this document.

本节列出了基本测试,这些测试是本文件后面章节中规定的更复杂测试的先决条件。

3.1.1. Connectivity Tests between the Exporting Process and Collecting Process

3.1.1. 导出进程和收集进程之间的连接测试

The tester must create one Exporting Process and one Collecting Process, must configure the Exporting Process to export at least one Template Set and associated Data Records to the Collecting Process, and must cause the Exporting Process to initiate the export.

测试仪必须创建一个导出流程和一个采集流程,必须配置导出流程以将至少一个模板集和相关数据记录导出到采集流程,并且必须使导出流程启动导出。

When the Exporting Process and Collecting Process are to be connected by a Stream Control Transmission Protocol (SCTP) transport, the tester must ensure that an SCTP association is established.

当导出过程和收集过程通过流控制传输协议(SCTP)传输连接时,测试仪必须确保建立SCTP关联。

When the Exporting Process and Collecting Process are to be connected by a TCP transport, the tester must ensure that a TCP connection is established.

当导出进程和收集进程通过TCP传输连接时,测试人员必须确保建立了TCP连接。

The tester must ensure that the Transport Session parameters (IP addresses and ports) are correct.

测试仪必须确保传输会话参数(IP地址和端口)正确。

Note that specifying instructions and tools on how to ensure that a Transport Session is correctly established and that the parameters are correct is out of the scope of this document.

请注意,指定有关如何确保正确建立传输会话以及参数正确的说明和工具超出了本文档的范围。

The tester must ensure that the Data Records are actually exported. The transmitted data might be observed online with an appropriate packet sniffing tool. Such a tool is also a viable help to check if the initial connection (SCTP, TCP) has been successfully established.

测试人员必须确保数据记录已实际导出。可以使用适当的数据包嗅探工具在线观察传输的数据。这样的工具还可以帮助检查初始连接(SCTP、TCP)是否已成功建立。

The tester must record which combinations of IPv4 and IPv6 transports, and UDP, SCTP, and TCP transmission protocols are supported, and should perform the test for all the supported combinations.

测试仪必须记录支持IPv4和IPv6传输以及UDP、SCTP和TCP传输协议的组合,并应对所有支持的组合执行测试。

3.2. Template and Data Record Tests
3.2. 模板和数据记录测试

This section lists tests for checking the correct transmission of IPFIX Template Sets and associated Data Sets.

本节列出了检查IPFIX模板集和相关数据集正确传输的测试。

3.2.1. Transmission of Template with Fixed-Size Information Elements
3.2.1. 具有固定大小信息元素的模板传输

The tester must create a Template with a few fixed-size Information Elements where each data type specified in Section 6.1 of [RFC5101] (octet, unsigned16, unsigned32 ...) is used at least once, and cause the Template and associated Data Records to be exported over all applicable combinations of transports and protocols in Section 3.1.

测试人员必须创建一个带有几个固定大小信息元素的模板,其中[RFC5101]第6.1节(八位字节,无符号16,无符号32…)中规定的每种数据类型至少使用一次,并通过第3.1节中所有适用的传输和协议组合导出模板和相关数据记录。

The tester must ensure that the Template and associated Data Records were correctly received and decoded by the Collecting Process. For this process, the use of verbose debugging output is suggested in order to allow a detailed comparison with the sent (and therefore expected) data.

测试人员必须确保采集过程正确接收并解码了模板和相关数据记录。对于此过程,建议使用详细调试输出,以便与发送的(因此也是预期的)数据进行详细比较。

3.2.2. Transmission of Template with Variable-Length Information Elements

3.2.2. 具有可变长度信息元素的模板传输

The tester must create a Template with a mixture of fixed-sized and variable-length Information Elements, as specified in Section 7 of [RFC5101], and cause the Template and associated Data Records to be exported over all applicable combinations of transports and protocols in Section 3.1.

按照[RFC5101]第7节的规定,测试人员必须创建一个混合了固定大小和可变长度信息元素的模板,并在第3.1节的所有适用传输和协议组合中导出模板和相关数据记录。

The tester must ensure that the Template contains at least:

测试仪必须确保模板至少包含:

o a single variable-length Information Element.

o 单个可变长度信息元素。

o a single variable-length Information Element followed by a fixed-length Information Element.

o 一个可变长度的信息元素,后跟一个固定长度的信息元素。

o a fixed-length Information Element followed by a variable-length Information Element.

o 固定长度的信息元素后跟可变长度的信息元素。

o multiple variable-length Information Elements.

o 多个可变长度信息元素。

The tester must ensure that the Template and associated Data Records were correctly received and decoded by the Collecting Process.

测试人员必须确保采集过程正确接收并解码了模板和相关数据记录。

3.2.3. Set Padding
3.2.3. 设置填充

Section 3.3.1 of [RFC5101] specifies IPFIX Set alignment using padding.

[RFC5101]第3.3.1节规定了使用填充的IPFIX集合对齐。

The tester must configure a packet generator to generate two Data Sets with padding in between consisting of zero valued octets, as shown in Figure 1. They must be exported to the Collecting Process, which must correctly decode the Data Sets and all the Data Records.

测试人员必须配置一个数据包生成器来生成两个数据集,两个数据集之间填充由零值八位字节组成,如图1所示。它们必须导出到采集过程,采集过程必须正确解码数据集和所有数据记录。

3.2.4. Record Padding
3.2.4. 记录填充

The tester must configure a packet generator to generate a Template that contains the padding Information Element (i.e., paddingOctets). The Template and associated Data Records must be exported to the Collecting Process, over all applicable combinations of transports and protocols in Section 3.1.

测试人员必须配置数据包生成器,以生成包含填充信息元素(即paddingOctets)的模板。模板和相关数据记录必须通过第3.1节中所有适用的传输和协议组合导出到收集过程中。

The tester must repeat the test with various padding sizes, including padding to boundaries other than 4 or 8 octets.

测试人员必须使用不同的填充大小重复测试,包括填充到4或8个八位字节以外的边界。

The tester must ensure the Collecting Process correctly interprets cases where the Data Records are so short that the padding is equal to or longer than the length of the record, so the padding might otherwise be interpreted as another record (e.g., 1 byte TOS plus 3 bytes of padding). Refer to the specifications in Section 3.3.1 of [RFC5101]. Figure 2 depicts such a Template, while Figure 3 depicts a Data Record conforming to that Template.

测试人员必须确保采集过程正确地解释了以下情况:数据记录非常短,以至于填充长度等于或大于记录长度,因此填充可能会被解释为另一条记录(例如,1字节TOS加3字节填充)。参考[RFC5101]第3.3.1节中的规范。图2描述了这样一个模板,而图3描述了符合该模板的数据记录。

3.5. Stress/Load Tests
3.5. 应力/载荷试验

Stress tests are used to check correct behavior and robustness of an IPFIX Collecting Process implementation when a number of Data Records arrive very quickly. This is especially important when IPFIX over UDP is used, since in that case a slow Collecting Process cannot block the IPFIX Exporting Processes from exporting because UDP is not congestion aware.

当大量数据记录很快到达时,压力测试用于检查IPFIX收集过程实现的正确行为和健壮性。当使用UDP上的IPFIX时,这一点尤其重要,因为在这种情况下,缓慢的收集进程无法阻止IPFIX导出进程的导出,因为UDP不知道拥塞。

The tests may be dependent upon the hardware and transport technology in use. Therefore, the tests may need to be scaled up or down to meet the needs of the particular implementation. However, the implementer must ensure that the implementation is stable under excessive traffic conditions, for whatever definition of "excessive" applies at their intended installation.

测试可能取决于使用的硬件和传输技术。因此,可能需要放大或缩小测试以满足特定实现的需要。但是,实现者必须确保实现在过度流量条件下是稳定的,因为“过度”的定义适用于其预期安装。

The implementer must ensure the correct operation of the Exporting Process and/or Collecting Process when the Collecting Process is incapable of processing records at the rate that they are received.

当收集过程无法以收到记录的速度处理记录时,实施者必须确保导出过程和/或收集过程的正确操作。

The tester should export many Data Records to the Collecting Process, all conforming to the same Template, in order to put the Collecting Process under stress.

测试人员应将许多数据记录导出到采集过程中,所有数据记录均符合同一模板,以便对采集过程施加压力。

Depending on what the Collecting Process does (save to file, store to database, analyze the data) the Collecting Process may use up a lot of memory.

根据收集过程的功能(保存到文件、存储到数据库、分析数据),收集过程可能会占用大量内存。

The tester must ensure that, if the Collecting Process runs out of memory, it shuts down the specific SCTP association or closes the TCP connection but remains available to receive data on other open Transport Sessions and also stays available for future Transport Sessions.

测试仪必须确保,如果采集进程内存不足,它会关闭特定的SCTP关联或关闭TCP连接,但仍可以在其他打开的传输会话上接收数据,并且还可以在将来的传输会话中使用。

3.5.2. Excessive Rate of Incoming Data Records
3.5.2. 传入数据记录的速率过高

The tester should perform a test where Data Records are exported to the Collecting Process with an increasing export rate.

测试人员应执行一项测试,其中数据记录以增加的输出速率导出到采集过程。

For UDP export, the tester must ensure that the Collecting Process drops records as it becomes overloaded, and must check that the Collecting Process logged a warning.

对于UDP导出,测试人员必须确保收集进程在过载时丢弃记录,并且必须检查收集进程是否记录了警告。

3.5.3. Large Templates
3.5.3. 大模板

The tester must create Templates with the maximum possible number of Information Elements and cause these to be exported to the Collecting Process.

测试人员必须使用尽可能多的信息元素创建模板,并将其导出到收集过程中。

The total length field in the IP header is 16 bits, allowing a length up to 65535 octets in one application-level datagram. This limits the number of Information Elements one can specify in an IPFIX Template when using UDP export. SCTP and TCP are streaming protocols, so they do not impose much restriction on the packet level. UDP requires 20 octets for a minimal IPv4 header, 8 octets for the UDP header, 16 octets for the IPFIX header, 4 octets for the Set header, and 4 octets for the Template header, so the Template definition may be up to (65535 - 20 - 8 - 16 - 4 - 4) = 65483 octets long. The minimum IPFIX Information Element specification requires 4 octets: two for the Information Element ID and two for the field length. Therefore, the maximum number of IPFIX Information Elements in a single Template is 65483 / 4 = 16370. With this many Information Elements, the Template will be 65480 octets long, while the entire packet will be 65532 octets long.

IP报头中的总长度字段为16位,允许一个应用程序级数据报中的长度最多为65535个八位字节。这限制了使用UDP导出时可以在IPFIX模板中指定的信息元素数量。SCTP和TCP是流协议,因此它们对数据包级别没有太多限制。UDP需要20个八位字节用于最小IPv4报头,8个八位字节用于UDP报头,16个八位字节用于IPFIX报头,4个八位字节用于Set报头,4个八位字节用于模板报头,因此模板定义的长度可能高达(65535-20-8-16-4-4)=65483个八位字节。最小IPFIX信息元素规范需要4个八位字节:两个用于信息元素ID,两个用于字段长度。因此,单个模板中IPFIX信息元素的最大数量为65483/4=16370。有了这么多信息元素,模板的长度将是65480个八位字节,而整个数据包的长度将是65532个八位字节。

The tester must create Data Records conforming to this Template, and cause them to be exported. Note that, for the implementation, the associated Data Records might be smaller or larger than the Template Records depending on the length of the Information Elements defined by the Template and on the presence of variable-length Information Elements.

测试人员必须创建符合此模板的数据记录,并将其导出。注意,对于实现,相关联的数据记录可能小于或大于模板记录,这取决于模板定义的信息元素的长度以及可变长度信息元素的存在。

The tester must ensure that the Collecting Process correctly receives and decodes the Template and associated Data Records.

测试人员必须确保采集过程正确接收并解码模板和相关数据记录。

3.5.4. Many New Templates within the Data Template Timeout Interval
3.5.4. 数据模板超时时间间隔内的许多新模板

The tester should create a large number of different Templates and cause them to be exported to the Collecting Process to stress test the Collecting Process's memory consumption.

测试人员应该创建大量不同的模板,并将它们导出到收集进程,以对收集进程的内存消耗进行压力测试。

The tester must ensure that the Collecting Process gracefully discards Templates if it's running out of memory resources, and it should check that warnings are logged.

测试人员必须确保收集过程在内存资源不足时正常地丢弃模板,并且应该检查是否记录了警告。

3.5.5. Multiple Exporting Processes Exporting to One Collecting Process
3.5.5. 多个导出进程导出到一个收集进程

The tester must configure multiple Exporting Processes to export Templates and associated Data Records to the same Collecting Process at the same time.

测试人员必须配置多个导出过程,以便将模板和相关数据记录同时导出到同一个采集过程。

The tester must ensure that all the Templates and associated Data Records are correctly received and decoded at the Collecting Process, and that no Exporting Process stalls or disconnects completely unless the Collecting Process runs out of memory.

测试人员必须确保在采集过程中正确接收并解码所有模板和相关数据记录,并且除非采集过程内存不足,否则任何导出过程都不会完全暂停或断开连接。

3.5.6. Export from One Exporting Process to Multiple Collecting Processes

3.5.6. 从一个导出进程导出到多个收集进程

If the Exporting Process supports multiple simultaneous export destinations, the tester must configure the Exporting Process to export Data Records in parallel to different Collecting Processes.

如果导出过程支持多个同时导出目的地,测试仪必须将导出过程配置为与不同的采集过程并行导出数据记录。

The tester must configure the use of a mixture of simple and complex Templates and ensure they are all correctly received and decoded by all the Collecting Processes.

测试人员必须配置简单和复杂模板的混合使用,并确保所有收集过程都正确接收和解码这些模板。

3.6. Error Handling
3.6. 错误处理

This section lists and describes a number of problems that might occur in either the network or data transmission or related to wrong information encoding, and that the IPFIX Exporting Process and Collecting Process must be capable of handling in a graceful way. It is intended to test the robustness and fault tolerance of the IPFIX Processes.

本节列出并描述了网络或数据传输中可能出现的问题,或与错误信息编码有关的问题,以及IPFIX导出过程和收集过程必须能够以优雅的方式处理的问题。它旨在测试IPFIX过程的健壮性和容错性。

3.6.1. Temporary Network Disconnect
3.6.1. 临时网络断开

The IPFIX Exporting Process and Collecting Process behavior must be checked upon interruptions of data transmission due to network failures (whether physical or logical, e.g., defective routing).

由于网络故障(无论是物理故障还是逻辑故障,例如路由故障)导致数据传输中断时,必须检查IPFIX导出进程和收集进程的行为。

The tester must configure continuous export over all applicable combinations of transports and protocols in Section 3.1, in turn.

测试人员必须依次在第3.1节中的所有适用传输和协议组合上配置连续导出。

For SCTP-based associations and TCP-based connections, the tester should create a short disconnect between the Exporting Process and the Collecting Process (e.g., by momentarily interrupting the network connection) and must ensure that export continues after the connection is repaired. The tester must then create a longer disconnection between the Exporting Process and Collecting Process, and it must ensure that export continues after the connection is repaired.

对于基于SCTP的关联和基于TCP的连接,测试仪应在导出过程和收集过程之间创建一个短断开连接(例如,通过暂时中断网络连接),并且必须确保在连接修复后继续导出。然后,测试仪必须在导出过程和收集过程之间创建更长的断开连接,并且必须确保在修复连接后继续导出。

For UDP-based data export, there is no noticeable connection loss, but data received with non-consecutive sequence numbers indicates data loss. Refer to the sequence number specifications in Section 3.1 of [RFC5101]. The tester should create a short disconnect between the Exporting Process and Collecting Process, and it must ensure that this is recognized and reported by the Collecting Process per Section 3.1 of [RFC5101].

对于基于UDP的数据导出,没有明显的连接丢失,但使用非连续序列号接收的数据表示数据丢失。参考[RFC5101]第3.1节中的序列号规范。测试仪应在导出过程和收集过程之间创建一个短断开连接,并且必须确保收集过程根据[RFC5101]第3.1节识别并报告该断开连接。

3.6.2. Exporting Process Termination and Restart during Data Transmission

3.6.2. 在数据传输期间导出进程终止和重新启动

An IPFIX Collecting Process might be confronted with a faulty Exporting Process implementation that suddenly crashes, dropping any open connections. The Exporting Process may be restarted again soon after the crash.

IPFIX收集进程可能会遇到错误的导出进程实现,该实现会突然崩溃,丢失任何打开的连接。崩溃后不久,可能会再次重新启动导出过程。

Such an event will only be visible to the Collecting Process when the IPFIX Messages (Templates and associated Data Records) are carried over TCP or SCTP. For export via UDP, no such test is available due to the connection-less nature of the transport.

只有当IPFIX消息(模板和相关数据记录)通过TCP或SCTP传输时,收集过程才能看到此类事件。对于通过UDP导出,由于传输的连接较少,因此没有此类测试可用。

The tester must configure continuous export over all applicable combinations of SCTP and TCP transports and protocols in Section 3.1, in turn. For each combination, the tester must establish export, then kill the active Exporting Process.

测试人员必须依次在第3.1节中的SCTP和TCP传输和协议的所有适用组合上配置连续导出。对于每个组合,测试人员必须建立导出,然后终止活动的导出过程。

The tester must ensure that the associated Collecting Process shuts down SCTP associations and closes TCP connections associated with that export after a suitable timeout period.

测试仪必须确保相关的收集过程在适当的超时时间后关闭SCTP关联,并关闭与该导出相关的TCP连接。

The tester must Ensure that the Collecting Process discards the Template(s) received on the killed transport session.

测试人员必须确保收集过程丢弃在终止的传输会话上接收的模板。

The tester must restart the Exporting Process again, and it must ensure that the Exporting Process exports the Templates again.

测试人员必须重新启动导出过程,并且必须确保导出过程再次导出模板。

The tester must ensure that the Collecting Process receives and accepts both Templates and associated Data Records from the new Exporting Process running at the same source host.

测试人员必须确保采集进程从运行在同一源主机上的新导出进程接收并接受模板和相关数据记录。

3.6.3. Collecting Process Termination and Restart during Data Transmission

3.6.3. 数据传输期间采集进程终止和重启

An IPFIX Exporting Process might be confronted with a faulty Collecting Process implementation that suddenly crashes, dropping any open Transport Sessions. The Collecting Process may be restarted again soon after the crash.

IPFIX导出进程可能会遇到错误的收集进程实现,该实现突然崩溃,丢弃任何打开的传输会话。收集过程可能在崩溃后不久重新启动。

The tester must set up an Exporting Process and Collecting Process and cause IPFIX Templates and associated Data Records to be exported over all applicable combinations of SCTP and TCP transports and protocols in Section 3.1, in turn. Via UDP, the restart of the Collecting Process will be invisible to the Exporting Process and have no effect.

测试人员必须设置导出过程和收集过程,并依次通过第3.1节中所有适用的SCTP和TCP传输组合和协议导出IPFIX模板和相关数据记录。通过UDP,收集进程的重新启动将对导出进程不可见,并且没有任何效果。

The tester must terminate the Collecting Process while the export is in progress, and must ensure that the Exporting Process shuts down SCTP associations and closes TCP connections associated with that Collecting Process.

测试人员必须在导出过程中终止收集过程,并且必须确保导出过程关闭SCTP关联并关闭与该收集过程关联的TCP连接。

The tester must restart the Collecting Process and ensure that the Exporting Process connects to the Collecting Process again and that it exports the IPFIX Templates again.

测试人员必须重新启动收集过程,并确保导出过程再次连接到收集过程,并且再次导出IPFIX模板。

The tester must ensure that the new Collecting Process correctly receives and decodes the IPFIX Data Records again.

测试仪必须确保新的采集过程再次正确接收并解码IPFIX数据记录。

3.6.4. Incorrect Template Records and Options Template Records
3.6.4. 不正确的模板记录和选项模板记录

These tests verify the Collecting Process's operation when it receives a Template Record or Options Template Record with an invalid message length. Refer to the specifications in Section 3.4.1 and 3.4.2 of [RFC5101], respectively.

这些测试验证收集进程在接收到消息长度无效的模板记录或选项模板记录时的操作。分别参考[RFC5101]第3.4.1节和第3.4.2节中的规范。

Consider the example Template Record shown in Figure 4. This Template record is missing one Information Element ID and one Information Element length field. There is insufficient data in the Set for the specified Set length, and the overall record is four octets too short for the specified total length.

考虑图4所示的示例模板记录。此模板记录缺少一个信息元素ID和一个信息元素长度字段。集合中的数据不足,无法满足指定集合长度的要求,并且总记录的长度比指定的总长度短四个八位字节。

The tester must create and cause the Exporting Process to export the following IPFIX Templates, and must ensure the correct Collecting Process behavior for each of the transports and protocols in Section 3.1.

测试人员必须创建并使导出过程导出以下IPFIX模板,并且必须确保第3.1节中每个传输和协议的收集过程行为正确。

The tester must do the following:

测试仪必须执行以下操作:

o For SCTP transport, ensure that the Collecting Process discards the IPFIX Message, shuts down the SCTP association, and logs the error.

o 对于SCTP传输,请确保收集进程丢弃IPFIX消息,关闭SCTP关联并记录错误。

o For TCP transport, ensure that the Collecting Process discards the IPFIX Message, closes the TCP connection, and logs the error. Note that since TCP is a streaming (rather than record-based) protocol, template length errors cannot be detected and may cause framing to be lost, potentially rendering the remainder of the IPFIX stream unintelligible. Therefore, some of these tests are not applicable for TCP transport, as indicated.

o 对于TCP传输,请确保收集进程丢弃IPFIX消息,关闭TCP连接并记录错误。请注意,由于TCP是一种流(而不是基于记录)协议,因此无法检测到模板长度错误,并可能导致帧丢失,从而可能导致IPFIX流的其余部分无法理解。因此,如图所示,其中一些测试不适用于TCP传输。

o For UDP transport, ensure that the Collecting Process discards the IPFIX Message and logs the error.

o 对于UDP传输,请确保收集进程丢弃IPFIX消息并记录错误。

(a) The tester must create the IPFIX Template shown in Figure 4 and cause the Exporting Process to export it. The tester must ensure that the Collecting Process's behavior is as specified above for each transport type except for TCP, for which this test is not applicable.

(b) Consider the IPFIX Template shown in Figure 4, modified with total length = 28. In this case, the IPFIX Message has to be rejected because the field count = 2 and there is no second Information Element record present in the Set. The available data is exhausted after reading the first Information Element record.

(b) 考虑图4所示的IpFIX模板,修改为总长=28。在这种情况下,必须拒绝IPFIX消息,因为字段计数=2,并且集合中不存在第二条信息元素记录。读取第一条信息元素记录后,可用数据将耗尽。

(d) Consider the IPFIX Template shown in Figure 4, modified with field count = 1. In this case, the IPFIX Message must be rejected because the total length is too large and does not match the amount of data available.

(d) 考虑图4所示的IpFIX模板,用字段计数=1进行修改。在这种情况下,必须拒绝IPFIX消息,因为总长度太大,并且与可用数据量不匹配。

The tester must create the modified Template and cause the Exporting Process to export it. The tester must ensure that the Collecting Process's behavior is as specified above for each transport type. This test is not applicable for TCP transport.

测试人员必须创建修改后的模板,并使导出过程将其导出。测试人员必须确保收集过程的行为符合上述针对每种传输类型的规定。此测试不适用于TCP传输。

(e) Finally, when the IPFIX Template shown in Figure 4 is extended with the data shown in Figure 5, it becomes a correct IPFIX Template.

(e) 最后,当使用图5所示的数据扩展图4所示的IPFIX模板时,它将成为正确的IPFIX模板。
