1.1 Test Overview
Testing performed on the Kontron IP Network Server NSN2U is divided under two separate
categories:
 Basic Operating System Installation Testing
 Adapter/Peripheral Compatibility testing and System Stress Testing.
1.1.1 Basic Installation Testing
Basic installation testing is performed with each supported operating system. Basic
installation testing validates that the server board can install the operating system and that
the base hardware feature set is functional. A small set of peripherals is used for
installation purposes only. No add-in adapter cards are tested. Testing includes network
connectivity and running of proprietary and industry standard test suites.
 The latest version of an operating system signifies the latest supported version at
the time of the actual test run. Each new release of this document may have a
newly supported release of a given operating system. Previous releases of a
supported operating system may not be tested beyond the basic installation test
process.
