LNLSwitch packets loss in special conditionSwitch packets loss in special condition

First packet forwarded correctly

Some packets lost

( 10-30 packets )

All the following packetsforwarded correctly

• The switch lose some packets in particular conditions

• When the transmission restart after a pause >60 Secs

• Probably related to the MAC address table management

• Problem solved by the Error recovery procedure

10

LNLTest conditionsTest conditions

• BDN+BCN in the same network• No Readout commands from EVM to RU• Clear/Allocate optimization: the clear

command is sent together an allocate for a new event

• No command or event aggregation: each packet transport a command or a data frame relative to a single event

11

LNLTest conditionsTest conditions

• Full data transfer: data moved from/to the pc memory

• Tests performed in the 400-4000 Bytes range

LNLConclusions for the Square Event BuilderConclusions for the Square Event Builder

• Event Builder Demonstrator 15x15 based on copper Gigabit Ethernet interfaces tested

• Good performances and scalability

• Actual limit is in the Readout Unit (?)

• Error recovery work fine, systematic tests need
