Abstract
A system for providing test receive port resiliency includes a network equipment test device including a port module for transmitting test packets to and receiving packets from a device under test (DUT). The system further includes a port central processing unit (CPU) associated with the port module for processing packets that the CPU receives from the DUT. The system further includes a configurable pre-filter associated with the port module for pre-filtering the packets to prevent at least some of the packets from being forwarded to the port CPU. The system further includes a pre-filter rules generator for analyzing the packets forwarded to the port CPU and for automatically generating a pre-filtering rule to be used by the pre-filter for filtering subsequent packets received from the DUT.
