Depens on the manafacturuer i did this last year for cisco kit in the
local cisco academy you can show the state of each port on a switch as
the network stabalises

I also did a test network of our teams SEM 4 Design and tested it for
real (this was with full meshing between switches and hrsp).

It depends what kind of testing you want to do - scalability,
interoperability, or conformance. For interoperability testing
you could use the services of UNH's interoperability lab.
For conformance testing there are tools such as ANVL
by Ixia. For scalability testing you'd need to define your
own tests with the help of some test tools such as an Ixia
chassis. These tools can get quite expensive, though.

If you don't want to spend any money on testing tools,
you could manually create your test environment and run
your tests based on the the PICS in the IEEE 802.1Q
specification.

Hi,

I am using the package of NetO2, ATTEST for conformance
test. It is also very usefull for debuging.
