15、budget and eye opening .27 i Foreword (This foreword is not part of American National Standard X3.255-l 996.) The Fibre Distributed Data Interface (FDDI) is intended for use in a high- performance general-purpose multistation network and is designed for effi- cient operation with a peak data rate of

16、 100 Mbit/s. It uses a Token Ring Architecture with optical fiber as the transmission medium. FDDI provides for hundreds of stations operating over an extent of tens of kilometers. The FDDI Physical Media Dependent (PMD) standard specifies the lower sublayer of the Physical Layer for the FDDI, inclu

17、ding the optical interface for multi-mode fiber FDDI stations. This Abstract Test Suite (ATS) provides a conformance test for FDDI PMD. FDDI PMD specifies the optical inter- face of FDDI stations. FDDI PMD is not a protocol standard and this stan- dard requires the measurement of physical quantities

18、 such as optical power, wavelength, and signal jitter. The intent of this standard is to speci- fy the tests as broadly as possible to allow measurement by various detailed test implementations. The ATS in this standard differs from the methodology of higher-level protocol conformance tests written

19、using the Tree and Tabular Combined Notation (TTCN) because TTCN does not pro- vide for Physical Layer testing, where there is no concept of a protocol data unit and where physical quantities must be measured. Four other standards, when available, will provide a complete confor- mance test of an FDD

20、I station: NOTE -The ATS MAC, ATS SMT, and PIGS Proforma standards are under devel- opment. (a) An ATS for the FDDI Physical Layer Protocol (PHY) that provides a conformance test for FDDI PHY. PHY specifies the upper sublayer of the Physical Layer for the FDDI, including the data encode/decode, fram

21、ing and clocking, as well as the elasticity buffer, smoothing, and repeat filter functions. FDDI PHY, however, does contain several state machines and implements a protocol at the level of FDDI code symbols. The only physical quantity that is measured in this conformance test is frequency. The PHY A

22、TS cannot use the TTCN notation and a notation is developed in the PHY ATS for specifying test patterns and expected results in terms of FDDI code symbol strings. (This standard is currently available as an American National Standard and is designated ANSI X3.248-l 998.) (b) An ATS for FDDI Media Ac

23、cess Control (MAC) that provides a con- formance test for FDDI MAC. MAC specifies the lower sublayer of the Data Link Layer for FDDI. It specifies access to the medium, including addressing, data checking, and data framing. MAC also specifies the receiver and transmitter state machines. Since MAC is

24、 a protocol that deals primarily with complete PDUs, the TTCN language is used to specify MAC protocol tests. Provisions of MAC, however, require high- resolution timing that may be difficult to achieve in commercial protocol testers. (c) An ATS for FDDI Station Management (SMT) that provides a conf

25、or- mance test for FDDI SMT. SMT specifies the local portion of the system management application process for FDDI, including the control required for proper operation of an FDDI station in an FDDI ring. SMT provides services such- as connection management, station insertion and removal station init

26、ialization, configuration management and fault recovery, communications protocol for external authority, scheduling poli- cies and the collection of statistics. SMT interacts with PMD, PHY, and MAC. Therefore, an ATS for portions of SMT that use MAC PDUs can be specified in TTCN, while other portion

27、s require other approaches. (d) A Protocol Implementation Conformance Statement (PICS) proforma for FDDI that provides a statement of the mandatory and optional requirements of each of the four FDDI base standards. The PIGS profor- ma is used to identify requirements for conformance testing and to s

28、pecify optional functionality requirements, particularly by workshops for functional standards and profiles. This standard was developed by Task Group X3T9.5 of Accredited Standards Committee X3 during 1990,199l ,1992, and 1993. The standards approval process started in 1993. This standard contains

29、three annexes. Annexes A and B are normative and are considered part of the standard; Annex C is informative and is not con- sidered part of the standard. Requests for interpretations, suggestions for improvement or addenda, or defect reports are welcome. They should be sent to the X3 Secretariat, I

38、izes the requirements of IS0 9314-3. It identifies those requirements that are tested in this test specification and the specific test suite where they are tested. 6 General 6.1 Test environment The FDDI standards do not specify an operating environment. All tests specified in this docu- ment shall

39、be performed with temperature and atmospheric conditions consistent with the envi- ronmental operating specifications of the IUT. For FDDI stations which are directly powered (either wholly or partly) from the AC power line, all tests shall be carried out within 0,5% of the nominal operating voltage

40、. If the equipment is powered by other means, and those means are not supplied as a part of the apparatus (e.g., batteries, stabilized AC supplies, DC), all tests shall be carried out within the power sup- ply limit declared by the supplier. If the power supply is AC, the tests shall be conducted wi

41、thin 4% of the normal operating frequency. All optical power measurements shall be made with a calibrated power meter traceable to a recognized primary standard (e.g., NIST or PTB). 6.2 Measurement error Physical quantities are measured in this ATS (particularly optical power levels). There are meas

42、urement errors associated with the cali- bration and tolerance of the measurement instruments. Moreover, it is known that mea- surements of optical output power are not nec- essarily precisely repeatable due to differ- ences in the way connectors mate each time they are inserted. Where measurement r

43、epeatability is a concern, it is common in test standards to require a number of measure- ments and to add a safety factor of three times the standard deviation of those measurements to the mean. This ATS follows that convention. Bit error rates (BER) are measured in this ATS. At the rates specified

44、 in PMD practical tests are statistical tests of the hypothesis that IUT meets the PMD requirements with a limit- ed sample size. Associated with these tests is a confidence level. The confidence level cho- sen in this ATS is 90%. Tests that establish this confidence level may have varying dura- tio

45、ns. However, the shorter the test, the larger the safety margin required of the IUT if it is to have a high probability of passing the test. It is the burden of the conformance test labora- tory to verity that an IUT does conform to the standard. Therefore, measurement errors due to calibration, rep

46、eatability and statistical sam- pling are added to the requirement being test- ed so that the greater the error, the more diffi- cult it becomes to pass the conformance test. 7 Media attachment An FDDI station is attached to the fibre optic medium by a Media Interface Connector (MIC). IS0 9314-3 cla

47、use 7 specifies the dimensions of the MIC plug and the recepta- cle in the station. This clause defines tests of station MIC requirements. 7.1 Receptacle keying 7.1.1 Purpose Every FDDI port is designated either A, B, S or M and IS0 9314-3 figure 8 specifies the keying required for a receptacle for

48、each type of port.
