ABSTRACT:
A test system for testing a plurality of switches. A test platform requests the resources required for performing a test. A central configuration queue manager determines whether the requested resources are available and allocates the resources to the test platform. After performing the test, the test platform relinquishes (or releases) the allocated resources. The resources may be shared by several test platform. An example of such a shared resource is an operator services trunk. The resources may be dedicated for each test platform also. An example of such a dedicated resource is a switch trunk connecting a switch to a digital cross-connect. The digital cross-connect uses the switch trunk to connect a test platform to the switch upon request from the test platform.
