Scope

  • This test is to verify that newly added proxy support in the viewer works as expected.
  • The user story that prompted the changes is STORM-1112 .
  • This test will only be meaningful if performed in a network environment that does not have access to second life.
  • The test also requires a working web proxy host and SOCKS 5 proxy host.
  • Estimated running time: 3 hours/platform after securing the appropriate test environment.

Set-up

Environment

  • Viewer: This test requires a build of the viewer that contains the LLProxy code. Grab the latest for your platform from the link below:
STORM-1112 Implement SOCKS 5 proxy
Allow the Second Life Viewer to connect through a SOCKS 5 proxy.
Windows | Macintosh | Linux

Source: https://bitbucket.org/log_linden/viewer_socks5
Details for these builds (build logs, included changesets)



  • Server: The test requires testing of mesh upload and download functionality, so access to a region with mesh support is required. Agni or Aditi are each fine. Region crossing will also be tested, so adjacent regions to test in will also be required.
  • A restrictive, firewalled network to connect the testing machine to is required to obtain valid test results.
  • A working web proxy host and a working SOCKS 5 host are required to complete the test.
  • Instructions to set up a reference Ubuntu Linux server that will act as a firewall and proxy gateway are available.
  • While 3rd party testers are welcome to set up a duplicate of our reference gateway server, we are also interested in results you might get in your organization's specific network setup, rather than using our reference setup. Since you might not be allowed to reconfigure your organization's firewall or proxy host, feel free to only test in the proxy configuration your organization supports and report on results you observe.

Other

  • You need a Second Life account that is able to upload mesh assets on the grid being tested. This will require you to have payment information on file and to pass a brief test on intellectual property rights. A tutorial to help you get set up is available in the Second Life Knowledge Base.
  • Your avatar should be a member of a group and be allowed to send messages in that group for testing.
  • Part of the test is making sure land parcel media is functional. Find somewhere in world that has both web parcel media and video parcel media.
  • Sandbox, or other area where building is allowed.
  • Have a test image file, sound file, and collada model available to test upload functionality. A sample collada model is available from the collada.org website.
  • To test the gpu table and feature table download functionality of the viewer, a packet capture tool on the proxy host such as wireshark or tcp_dump is necessary to verify that the request tool is making use of the proxy. This might not be possible if you do not have access to your organization's proxy host.

Common Procedures

Refer to this section when asked to do one of the following in a test step.

  • Enable proxy connection with HTTP traffic sent through web proxy.
    • Change these settings before logging into Second Life.

    • Start the viewer that was installed, but do not log in. If you are in Basic mode, change to Advanced and restart.
    • Navigate to the proxy control floater (Me->Preferences->Setup->Adjust proxy Settings.)
    • Inspect the settings.
    • Verify that both proxies are disabled.
    • Leave this floater open for the next test.
  • Reset "Other HTTP traffic proxy" radio button when configuration is not possible.
    • Enable HTTP Proxy.
    • Select HTTP proxy as the "other HTTP traffic proxy".
    • Disable HTTP Proxy.
    • Verify that "Do not proxy." is now selected as the Other HTTP traffic Proxy.

    • Enable both proxies, enter valid information for both proxies.
    • Change the "Other HTTP traffic proxy" option to "Use SOCKS 5 proxy".
    • Quit the viewer.
    • Edit the settings.xml file that corresponds to the channel of the viewer you are using to test with (e.g. settings_developer.xml, settings.xml, settings_beta.xml, etc.).
    • Change the value of Socks5ProxyEnabled to "0".
    • Restart the viewer.
    • Verify that the viewer doesn't crash
    • Open the proxy preferences floater.

  • Follow the instructions above to enable the proxy and send HTTP traffic through the web proxy.
  • This should be run with the firewall fully enabled to ensure the only traffic is being sent through the proxy.
  • Verify that you are able to successfully log into Second Life.

Viewer Initialization

  • HTTP Tables Loading Verify that the viewer is able to fetch the GPU table and feature table via the proxy.
    • The proxy should be enabled before starting this test.

    • Start the viewer but do not log in.
    • Inspect the capture for an HTTP request for an HTTP GET for a file of the form gpu_table.X.Y.Z.txt and for featuretable.X.Y.Z.txt.
    • Verify that there was a request originating from the test machine for each of these files, and a subsequent request from the proxy host for the same files. It is normal for each of these requests to receive a 404 response.
    • Close the viewer.
    • Inspect the Secondlife.log file.
    • Verify that there are no logs matching the following in Secondlife.log.

Proxy Enabled, other HTTP through SOCKS 5 Proxy

  • Repeat Connectivity Tests Verify that sending other HTTP traffic through the SOCKS 5 proxy works correctly.
    • Configure the viewer as described in the Enable proxy connection with HTTP traffic sent through SOCKS 5 proxy. section above.
    • 'Verify that you are able to successfully log into Second Life.

      • Integrated Web Browser
      • Media On a Prim
    • Verify that all tests pass.

No Proxy Enabled

  • Repeat Connectivity Tests Verify that users that are not using the proxy will not be negatively impacted by the change.
    • Either test on another computer that is not firewalled, or relax the firewall restrictions on the testing network. If using the reference gateway configuration, run the nat_forward_all.sh script to allow traffic through without going through a proxy.

    • Rerun the following list of test cases, which are described in the section above.
      • Viewer Initialization
      • Avatar Navigation and Movement

    • Verify that overall viewer performance is approximately the same as usual for the machine you are testing on.
    • Re-enable the firewall if you disabled it before further testing.

SOCKS 5 with Username/Password Authentication

  • Successful Login with SOCKS Authentication Test that the viewer can connect when the SOCKS 5 host requires a password.
    • Enable both proxies, with "other" traffic going through SOCKS 5.
    • Also in the proxy settings floater, select Username/Password as the SOCKS Authentication method.
    • Enter your SOCKS 5 username and password in the appropriate fields. If you followed the reference gateway instructions, your linux username and password should work for the socks credentials.
    • Select OK.
    • Try to log in to Second Life.
    • Verify that login is successful.
    • Leave authentication enabled for the next test.
    • Optional: The previous set of connectivity tests could be run in this mode as well to verify that the Username/Password authentication method works as well. This is a lower priority than the other three modes because this configuration is behaviorally very similar to the no authentication test, and should either connect or not connect.
  • SOCKS 5 Password Security The SOCKS 5 password should not be stored in cleartext.
    • Leave SOCKS 5 authentication enabled in the viewer from the previous test.
    • Close all running instances of the viewer.
    • Navigate to the user's Second Life settings directory.
    • Search, using grep or ctrl-f in notepad depending on the platform, for the username and password you used to connect to the SOCKS 5 server in the previous step in the settings.xml that corresponds to the viewer version you are testing with (settings.xml if using a release version, settings_development.xml if using a development build, etc).
    • Verify that the username and password do not appear in the settings files.
    • Start the viewer and disable authentication.

Pass/Fail Criteria

  • Passes if
    • No unexpected behaviors are observed
  • Fails if
    • Deviation from expected behavior is observed
    • A bug is detected that was not accounted for by this test plan
    • Performance degradation is observed when the proxy is disabled.
  • Known Issues
    • SLVoice does not support proxies, therefore voice is not expected to work when running the viewer behind a strict firewall that blocks the ports used for voice communication. If voice is enabled, an error message will appear when the viewer fails to connect to the voice server.

Tear Down

  • Disable all proxies in the viewer configuration.
  • Disable the built-in browser.
