In order to perform colour-aware testing, the method of marking generated packets
as green or yellow must be specified. Note that this is separate, but should be
compatible with, the method of identifying colour-marking, which forms part of the
SLA.

A Layer 2 test peer must be allocated to a flow. This will define the basic parameters
such as S-Tag, and also selects the pool of remote peers detected through the MDP
discovery process.
The flow is a toggle item, allowing the user to scroll through the list of available
options.
