摘要： 路由协议日益成为Ｉｎｔｅｒｎｅｔ的灵魂，而目前路由协议的测试工作非常有限。本文分析了路由协议相对于数据通信协议的特点，指出了路由协议测试应当测试的内容和目的，据此提出并讨论了应用于路由协议测试的技术思想与测试方法．对于现有测试方法、测试系统，文中分析了它们在路由协议测试中的测试能力、适用范围与不足之处，并提出了改进措施或解决方案。作为一个实例，边界网关协议（ＢＧＰ－４）测试贯穿了全文。

Abstract: Routing protocols are becoming the key factor of the Internet while the corresponding test activity is very limited. This Paper analyzes the differences between routing protocols and communication protocols, from which the scope and purpose of routing protocol test are concluded. And the technical concepts and test methods fitting routing protocols test are also presented. As to current test methods and test systems, their capacity applicability limitations and further improvements needed are discussed. As an actual case, the test of Border Gateway Protocol (BGP-4) is investigated throughout this paper
