Network interface card performance testing
Karabelly, Jozef ; Nagy, Peter (oponent) ; Grégr, Matěj (vedoucí práce)
This thesis explores the importance of NIC performance testing in network engineering, particularly for systems using the modern Linux kernel, due to rising network throughputs and multi-core processors expansion. It develops a scalable, adaptable test scenarios for NIC testing that handle the complexities of a rapidly evolving hardware and software landscape, aiming for stable, reproducible outcomes across different scenarios. The research includes analyzing Linux kernel's offloading features, using continuous integration tools for voluminous testing, and rigorously examining hardware setups. The test scenarios' effectiveness is validated through extensive testing on a specialized testbed, enhancing the understanding and optimization of NIC performance in complex Linux-based networks.
