Does that mean you're able to use some of these tests on your > switches? By default, we have port separation. So you can add individual IP addresses to interfaces, and ping from them. In fact, this is the first test i always run. My test setup uses 4 ports of the switch, and connects a USB-Ethernet dongle to each port. The 4 USB cables then connect to my host running the tests. I setup four parallel subnets, and ping across each. I've never used vrf, so i've no idea if that will just work on top. > The reason we can use these tests for mlxsw is that we support VRF and > ACL offload.

No ACLs either. So in theory, this could be used with DSA. But in practice, only having two test ports really restricts you from doing anything interesting. You need a minimum of 3, and all my tests use 4. Given your double requirements, that means you actually need a switch with 8 external ports. I don't know of any DSA board which has that.
