Running the test

Before you run the test, complete the test setup as described in the test requirements: Wireless LAN (802.11) Testing Prerequisites.

This test suite performs the following actions:

  • Sets up two routers (Router 0 and Router 1) as follows:

    • Router 0 – 2.4Ghz : OPEN/None/B/Channel 11

    • Router 0 – 5Ghz : WEP/None/A/Channel 44

    • Router 1 – 2.4Ghz : WPA2Enterprise (PEAP-EAPMSCHAPV2)/AES/B/Channel 1

    • Router 1 – 5Ghz : WPA2Enterprise (PEAP -EAPMSCHAPV2)/AES/A/Channel 40

  • Turns on all radios.

  • Creates a TCP server on the access point controller (AP) server.

  • Creates a profile for 2.4 GHz on Router 0 by having ConnectionMode configured as manual.

  • Stops the Remote Authentication Dial In User Service (RADIUS) server if running. Creates a RADIUS server on the AP controller for Router 0 at 2.4 GHz.

  • WlanConnect using the profile.

  • Waits for WlanConnect to complete by using WLAN notifications.

  • Registers for NLM events.

  • After the NLM notifies that LAN connectivity is available on the test adapter interface, polls the TCP server on the AP controller server to confirm that full network connectivity is available.

  • Uses the WLAN API GetConnectionAttributes to confirm that the association is correct and the connection is to Router 0 at 2.4 GHz.

  • Establishes a connection to the TCP Server on the AP controller server.

  • Creates a profile for 5 GHz on Router 1 by having ConnectionMode configured as Auto.

  • Stops the RADIUS server if it is running. Create a RADIUS server on the AP controller for Router 0 at 5 GHz.

  • Polls for WLAN notifications.

  • Turns off the 2.4 GHz radio on Router 0 and the 5 GHz radio on Router 1.

  • After a WLAN connected notification is received and the NLM notifies that LAN connectivity is available on the test adapter interface, polls the TCP server on the AP controller server to confirm that full network connectivity is available.

  • Uses the WLAN API GetConnectionAttributes to confirm that the association is correct and the connection is to Router 1 at 5 GHz.

  • Establishes a connection to the TCP Server on the AP controller server.

  • Creates a profile for 5 GHz on Router 0 by having ConnectionMode configured as Auto.

  • Stops the RADIUS server if it is running. Creates a RADIUS server on the AP controller for Router 1 at 5 GHz.

  • Polls for WLAN notifications.

  • Turns off the 5 GHz radios on Router 0 and Router 1.

  • After a WLAN connected notification is received and the NLM notifies that LAN connectivity is available on the test adapter interface, polls the TCP server on the AP controller server to confirm that full network connectivity is available.

  • Uses the WLAN API GetConnectionAttributes to confirm that the association is correct and the connection is to Router 0 at 5 GHz.

  • Establishes a connection to the TCP Server on the AP controller server.

  • Creates a profile for 2.4 GHz on Router 1 by having ConnectionMode configured as Auto.

  • Stops the RADIUS server if it is running. Creates a RADIUS server on the AP controller for Router 1 at 2.4 GHz.

  • Polls for WLAN notifications.

  • Turns off the 5 GHz radio on Router 0 and the 2.4 GHz radio on Router 1.

  • After a WLAN connected notification is received and the NLM notifies that LAN connectivity is available on the test adapter interface, polls the TCP server on the AP controller server to confirm that full network connectivity is available.

  • Uses the WLAN API GetConnectionAttributes to confirm that the association is correct and the connection is to Router 0 at 5 GHz.

If the device supports S3 and S4 sleep states, the following tests are performed. They are repeated for each supported sleep state.

  • Set up two routers (Router 0 and Router 1).

  • Turn on all radios.

  • Create a profile for 2.4 GHz on Router 0 with ConnectionMode configured as manual.

  • Stop the RADIUS server if it is running. Create a RADIUS server on the AP controller for Router 0 at 2.4 GHz.

  • WlanConnect using the profile.

  • Wait for WlanConnect to complete by using WLAN notifications.

  • Register for NLM events.

  • After the NLM notifies that LAN connectivity is available on the test adapter interface, poll the TCP server on the AP controller server to confirm that full network connectivity is available.

  • Use the WLAN API GetConnectionAttributes to confirm that the association is correct and the connection it to Router 0 at 2.4 GHz.

  • Establish a connection to the TCP Server on the AP controller server.

  • Create a profile for 5 GHz on Router 1 by having ConnectionMode configured as Auto.

  • Stop the RADIUS server if it is running. Create a RADIUS server on the AP controller for Router 0 at 5 GHz.

  • Poll for WLAN notifications.

  • Turn off the 2.4 GHz radio on Router 0.

  • Put the device in either S3 or S4 sleep state for 30 seconds.

  • Turn on the 5 GHz radio on Router 1.

  • After a WLAN connected notification is received and the NLM notifies that LAN connectivity is available on the test adapter interface, poll the TCP server on the AP controller server to confirm that full network connectivity is available.
