Notes for TIP WiFi testing related topics.


# To pull the latest upstream lanforge-scripts repo into the wlan-lanforge-scripts
# repository, use this or similar command.  This action will probably only be done
# by whoever is curating the wlan-lanforge-scripts repository.

git pull git@github.com:greearb/lanforge-scripts.git


# Testbed setup

Test-Controller system must be able to ssh into the LANforge system w/out a password
(use authorized_keys ssh setup) as both user lanforge and user root.

Test-Controller will need to be able to access the Cloud-SDK machines.  Not sure
exact details on this yet.

Serial ports must be make available to non-root users, command like this for each serial port:
chmod a+rwx /dev/ttyUSB0

For each new test-bed hardware config (including LANforge and AP hardware types and radio
layouts), a new directory in testbeds/ should be created, and populated with test-bed specific
LANforge scenario and test configuration files.  See 'ben-home' for examples.
See lanforge/lanforge-scripts/gui/README.txt for details on ways to grab the appropriate text,
but you will also need familiarity with LANforge to accomplish this easily.


# Test controller setup.  Assuming Fedora-30 or similar is installed.

# Enable vnc, install some things, disable selinux so vnc will work.
./lf_kinstall.pl --do_vnc --do_pkgs --do_selinux 0

# As user lanforge (or other user should work too)
# You will need to put the proper keys in ~/.ssh/ in order to
# do the clone.
mkdir ~/git
cd ~/git
git clone git@github.com:Telecominfraproject/wlan-testing.git
git clone git@github.com:Telecominfraproject/wlan-lanforge-scripts.git
cd wlan-testing/lanforge
ln -s ../../wlan-lanforge-scripts lanforge-scripts

# Make a copy of a test bed similar to what you have, for instance:
cd ~/git/wlan-testing/testbeds
cp -ar example_test_bed my_new_test_bed

# Edit the new test bed details as needed, this may be somewhat tricky
# if your test bed is different from others.
# See ~/git/wlan-lanforge-scripts/gui/README.txt for some hints on setting up
# scenarios and such.



# On LANforge machine, make sure GUI is in auto-start mode:

* Create uplink-nat profile.
* Create upstream DUT
* Create AP DUT
* Create scenario that uses uplink-nat profile and upstream-dhcp to provide VR+NAT access to the world.
* Add stations for the radios, properly linked to DUT radio(s).

* Create WCT test, verify it works OK, save scenario
*  Interleave sort, set pass/fail limits

* Create AP-Auto test
 * configure DUT
 * configure radios
 * configure advanced (dual-band only in our case)
 * configure stability settings
