is the number of the BD addresses to be used from
Start
BD
address
to
End
BD
address
and
Left
is
the number of BD addresses remaining.
Note:
The
End
BD
address
must always be greater than the
Start
BD
address
. In addition, when
Left
BD addresses are not enough for the remaining active DUTs, the PLT will not run.
Table 28: BD Address Assignment Options - Range Mode
Option
Description
Start BD address
The BD address that the PLT session has started with.
Next BD address
The BD address that will be used in the first active DUT of the next PLT run.
End BD address
The BD address that the PLT session will end with.
Load from File Mode
describes the available options for the
Load from file
mode. In this mode, the
Start BD
address
and the
Next BD address
have the same roles as before. The difference in this mode is that
the BD addresses are loaded from a file in the order as they are written in that file, not using the
automatic incremental method of the previous modes. In every test run, the PLT will search for the
first occurrence of the
Next
BD
address
in the file and will load it along with the BD addresses that
follow, until all active DUTs have a BD address.
Figure 41: Example for Load from File Mode
For example, consider three active DUTs: DUT3, DUT6, and DUT 9 and the
Next BD address
to be
00:00:00:11:22:08
shows the beginning of the BD address file used in this example. The
PLT will search for the
Next BD address
in the file and load it to the first active DUT, DUT3. It will
then continue with
00:00:00:11:22:06
for DUT6 and
00:00:00:11:22:05
for DUT9. It will also return
00:00:00:11:22:04
as the
Next BD address
to be used at the next PLT test run.
Note:
The BD address file should always end with a zero BD address (
00:00:00:00:00:00
) and a
new line at the end.
