for the Service. The Limit is also displayed on
the graph as a horizontal red dotted line (if the
measurements are close enough to the Limit
value for it to appear on the graph).
Loss Ratio : The percentage of total frames that
were lost
NOTE (for 10G Rate Performance tests): Low-
level electrostatic discharge (ESD) and low-
power Electric Fast Transient (EFT) events,
also called impulse noise, can interfere with
newer, faster data links with less noise
margin. These events could include static
from a user's clothing or interference from
electrical appliances or motorized
equipment. When running a full 10G line
rate test, ESD and EFT events can cause
periodic spikes or a spike that then resolves
on the Frame Loss graph.
