Running the test

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

The following suites are available:

  • AddressChange_ext

  • SafeMode_ext

  • SendRecv_cmn

  • SendRecv1x_cmn

  • Statistics_ext

The AddressChange_ext suite consists of the following:

Name Description

Query OID_DOT11_CURRENT_ADDRESS on the test adapter.

Query OID_DOT11_PERMANENT_ADDRESS on the test adapter.

Set the test adapter's network address to a valid address {0}. Verify data can be received and old address does not work.

Set the test adapter's network address to a multicast address {0}. This is no data verification done during this test.

Set the test adapter's network address to a broadcast address {0}. This is no data verification done during this test.

Set the test adapter's network address with a globally administered address {0}. This is no data verification done during this test.

 

The SafeMode_ext suite consists of the following:

Name Description

VerifySafeModeWithFragmentation

  • Set OID_DOT11_SAFE_MODE_ENABLED.

  • Send data from the DUT to an access point using {0} and {1} with safe mode enabled.

  • Send data from an access point to the DUT using {0} and {1} with safe mode enabled.

  • Transmit data from an access point to the DUT using {0} with safe mode and ExcludeUnencrypted enabled. ExcludeUnencrypted should be ignored

VerifySafeModeWithFragmentation

  • Set OID_DOT11_SAFE_MODE_ENABLED.

  • Send data from the DUT to an access point using RSNA and CCMP with safe mode enabled.

  • Send data from an access point to the DUT using RSNA and CCMP with safe mode enabled.

  • Transmit data from an access point to the DUT using CCMP with safe mode and ExcludeUnencrypted enabled. ExcludeUnencrypted should be ignored.

VerifySafeModeWithFragmentation

  • Set OID_DOT11_SAFE_MODE_ENABLED.

  • Send data from an access point to the DUT using RSNA and CCMP with safe mode enabled.

RunTestsAgainInVWiFiMode

Run the above tests again with a secondary vwifi port created.

 

The SendRecv_cmn suite consists of the following:

Name Description

VerifyUnicastSendReceive

  • Send unicast packets from an access point to the DUT.

  • Send unicast packets from the DUT to an access point.

VerifyBroadcastSendReceive

  • Send broadcast packets from an access point to the DUT.

  • Send broadcast packets from the DUT to an access point.

Pre-configuration

Connect the DUT to an access point with DOT11_MAC_AUTO_CONFIG_ENABLED_FLAG turned off before verifying fragmented sent or received data.

VerifySendFragmentation

  • Send unicast packets from an access point to the DUT. Set the maximum fragmentation.

  • Send unicast packets from the DUT to an access point. Set the maximum fragmentation.

  • Send unicast packets from an access point to the DUT. Set the minimum fragmentation.

  • Send unicast packets from the DUT to an access point. Set the minimum fragmentation.

VerifyReceiveFragmentation

  • Send unicast packets from an access point to the DUT. Set the minimum fragmentation on the access point.

  • Send unicast packets from the DUT to an access point. Set the minimum fragmentation on the access point.

VerifyRTSThreshold

  • Send unicast packets from an access point to the DUT. Set the minimum RTS threshold.

  • Send unicast packets from the DUT to an access point. Set the minimum RTS threshold.

VerifySendRecvIBSS

  • Send unicast packets from the SUT to the DUT.

  • Send unicast packets from the DUT to the SUT.

  • Send broadcast packets from the SUT to the DUT.

  • Send broadcast packets from the DUT to the SUT.

This test is not applicable to devices that support InstantGo.

 

The SendRecv1x_cmn suite consists of the following:

Name Description

Verify1xSendRecv

  • Configure sender and receiver for 802.1x

  • Verifying DUT can receive 802.1x packets when associated using {0}/{1}/{2} {3} cipher keys installed

  • Verifying DUT can send 802.1x packets when associated using {0}/{1}/{2} {3} cipher keys installed

The following authentication and cipher pairs are used:

  • Open WEP40

  • Open WEP104

  • Open WEP

  • WPA TKIP

  • WPAPSK TKIP

  • RSNA TKIP

  • RSNAPSK TKIP

  • WPAPSK CCMP

  • RSNA CCMP

  • RSNAPSK CCMP

 

The Statistics_ext suite consists of the following:

Name Description
  • Verify header information in DOT11_STATISTICS queried from the DUT.

  • Send unicast packets from the DUT to the first access point and verify the DUT TransmittedFrameCount is updated correctly.

  • Send unicast packets from the first access point to the DUT and verify DUT ReceivededFrameCount is updated correctly.

  • Send Open/WEP40 encrypted unicast data from the first access point to the DUT and verify MacUcastCounters DecryptSuccessCount on the DUT is updated correctly.

  • Send unicast data from the first access point to DUT and verify ullTKIPLocalMICFailures in DOT11_STATISTICS.MacUcastCounters is updated correctly.

  • Send unicast data from the access point to the DUT and verify ullCCMPDecryptErrors in DOT11_STATISTICS.MacUcastCounters is updated correctly.

  • Send unicast data from the first access point to the DUT and verify ullTKIPICVErrorCount in DOT11_STATISTICS.MacUcastCounters is updated correctly.

  • Send WEP40 encrypted unicast data from the first access point to the DUT and verify ullWEPUndecryptableCount in DOT11_STATISTICS.MacUcastCounters is updated correctly.

  • Send encrypted unicast data from the first access point to the DUT and verify ullDecryptFailureCount and ullWEPICVErrorCount in DOT11_STATISTICS.MacUcastCounters are updated correctly.

  • Send unicast data from the DUT to the first access point and verify ullTransmittedFrameCount in DOT11_STATISTICS.PhyCounters is updated correctly.

  • Send unicast data from the first access point to the DUT and verify ullReceivedFrameCount in DOT11_STATISTICS.PhyCounters is updated correctly.

  • Send fragmented data from an access point to the DUT and verify ullReceivedFragmentCount in DOT11_STATISTICS.PhyCounters is updated correctly.
