
Service Configuration Test : The objective of this test is to verify if the
network configuration is correct for each service before starting a long
term test (
Service Performance Test ). In order to test the network
configuration, a ramp will be generated for each configured service. In
the first stage of the test, the throughput will be increased
incrementally in steps until the CIR level is reached. During the first
stage, the maximum Jitter, Latency, and Frame Loss are measured and
will be compared to the SLA thresholds to declare a pass/fail verdict. In
the second stage of the test, when the EIR check box is enabled, the
throughput will be increased incrementally to the EIR level and one
step over EIR (Overshoot) to compare against expected maximum
throughput threshold to declare a pass/fail verdict. Refer to
Ramp
Configuration on page 52 for more details on how to set a ramp for a
service. By default,
Service Configuration Test
is enabled.

Service Performance Test : The objective of this test is to verify that the
SLA parameters are met over time by running multiple services
simultaneously. The maximum Jitter, latency, frame loss, and average
throughput are measured and will be compared to the configured
thresholds to declare a pass/fail verdict. By default,
Service
Performance Test
is enabled.
If enabled, set the time in HH:MM:SS format for the Service
Performance Test
duration. The default setting is 10 minutes.
