US Patent:

6499115, Dec 24, 2002

Filed:

Oct 22, 1999

Appl. No.:

09/426095

Inventors:

Dennis M. Wiedeman - Cedar Park TX
Eugene Baker - Austin TX
Dwayne R. Potter - Round Rock TX
Richard Amberg - Austin TX

Assignee:

Dell USA, L.P. - Round Rock TX

International Classification:

G06F 1100

US Classification:

714 30, 370252

Abstract:

Method and apparatus for dynamically connecting a system under test (âSUTâ) to and disconnecting an SUT from a private VLAN in a computer manufacturing environment is described. In a preferred embodiment, each time an SUT disposed in a burn rack boots up, a VLAN-capable switch (hereinafter âCATâ) connected thereto checks the media access control (âMACâ) address of the SUT against a MAC address-to-VLAN correlation table (âMAC-VLAN tableâ). If the SUTs MAC address is not listed in the MAC-VLAN table, the CAT connects the SUT to a predefined default VLAN; i. e. , the manufacturers main manufacturing network. If the SUTs MAC address is included in the MAC-VLAN table, there is a private VLAN associated with the SUT and the CAT connects the SUT to the associated VLAN in a conventional fashion, at which point custom configuration can be performed as needed on the private VLAN.

Abstract:

Method and apparatus for dynamically connecting a system under test (âSUTâ) to and disconnecting an SUT from a private virtual local area network (âVLANâ) in a computer manufacturing environment are described. In a preferred embodiment, each time an SUT disposed in a burn rack boots up, a VLAN-capable switch (hereinafter âCATâ) connected thereto checks the media access control (âMACâ) address of the SUT against a MAC address-to-VLAN correlation table (âMAC-VLAN tableâ). If the SUTs MAC address is not listed in the MAC-VLAN table, the CAT connects the SUT to a predefined default VLAN; i. e. , the manufacturers main manufacturing network. If the SUTs MAC address is included in the MAC-VLAN table, there is a private VLAN associated with the SUT and the CAT connects the SUT to the associated VLAN in a conventional fashion, at which point custom configuration can be performed as needed on the private VLAN. The MAC-VLAN correlation is performed as follows. When an SUT is moved from the assembly line to the burn rack, it is connected to the CAT and then booted from a configuration and diagnostics disk (hereinafter âstep disketteâ).

Abstract:

A system for dynamically implementing a plurality of virtual local area networks (âVLANsâ) across multiple sites is described. In one embodiment, the system includes a first VLAN-capable switch at a first site; a first system under test (âSUTâ) connected to the first VLAN-capable switch via a first burn rack switch; a second VLAN-capable switch located at a second site remote from the first site; a second SUT connected to the second VLAN-capable switch via a second burn rack switch; and means for connecting the first and second VLAN-capable switches such that the first and second SUTs are connected to a single virtual private network (âVPNâ). The means for connecting may consist of either first and second routers respectively connected to the first and second VLAN-capable switches and interconnected via a T1 line or an ATM connection. In an alternative embodiment, the system includes a first VLAN-capable switch located at a first site; a first system under test (âSUTâ) connected to the first VLAN-capable switch via a first burn rack switch; a second VLAN-capable switch located at a second site remote from the first site; a customer network located at a customer site remote from the first and second sites and connected to the second VLAN-capable switch via a router; and an ATM connection between the first and second VLAN-capable switches such that the first SUT and the customer network are connected to a single virtual private network (âVPNâ). In this alternative embodiment, the connection between the second site and customer site may be either an Internet connection or a high speed point-to-point connection.

Abstract:

A system for dynamically implementing a plurality of virtual local area networks (“VLANs”) across multiple sites is provided. The system includes a first VLAN-capable switch at a first site; a first system under test (“SUT”) connected to the first VLAN-capable switch via a first burn rack switch; a second VLAN-capable switch located at a second site remote from the first site; a second SUT connected to the second VLAN-capable switch via a second burn rack switch. The first and second VLAN-capable switches are connected such that the first and second SUTs are connected to a single virtual private network (“VPN”). The connection may include either first and second routers respectively connected to the first and second VLAN-capable switches and interconnected via a T line or an ATM connection. The system may also include a first VLAN-capable switch located at a first site; a first system under test (“SUT”) connected to the first VLAN-capable switch via a first burn rack switch; a second VLAN-capable switch located at a second site remote from the first site; a customer network located at a customer site remote from the first and second sites and connected to the second VLAN-capable switch via a router; and an ATM connection between the first and second VLAN-capable switches such that the first SUT and the customer network are connected to a single virtual private network (“VPN”). In this embodiment, the connection between the second site and customer site may be either an Internet connection or a high speed point-to-point connection.
