13.3 RFC 2544 Conformance Testing
Peer-to-Peer Asymmetric Testing
Starting / Stopping a RFC2544 Measurement
Overview:
RFC 2544 recommendations are well accepted in the test and measurement industry for network performance testing.
The RFC 2544 test suite consists of and performs a set of four automated tests (throughput, latency, frame loss, and
burst or back-to-back) to qualify the performance of a network link under test. The tests are especially popular for the
verification of network links with certain service level agreements (SLA).
The following settings must be configured prior to RFC 2544 testing:
Test layer (Layer 2, 3, & 4)
Frame header (PBB, MAC, VLAN, IP, UDP, and Data)
Test frames selection
Pass/fail thresholds (optional)
Far-end unit loop control
Throughput
Latency
Frame loss
Burst (back-to-back)
